Laurie McGraw is speaking with Inspiring Woman Dr. Dana Zanone, a family medicine physician who has been implementing technology solutions for most of her career. Now she wants physicians to have less time with the computer and much more of it focused on the more important work of being a physician – time with the patient. Dana is a self-described “click-counter” and knows how valuable that time with patients can be.
