Normally we use this space to highlight a member of our team, but this month we wanted to share the story of one of our wonderful customers. We’ve been working with Douglas G. Bailes, who is a doctor of osteopathic medicine, since 2000. During this time, we’ve supported his practice’s Medisoft needs. We have also recently added him to our fully managed IT plan. “The EMR system has really improved the efficiency of our practice, and we’ve increased our revenue by over 20 percent while seeing fewer patients! So many of my colleagues are selling their practices because they just can’t afford the overhead, but I think I should be able to keep doing this for at least another 20 years. The IT services that AZCOMP provides have been so helpful to us. We rarely go down. We never have ransomware or anything bad on our system. We know and trust that AZCOMP has given us the best technology solutions to keep our system running smoothly and our data safe. The entire company and all the personnel have been awesome to work with. We really enjoy how well everything is working all the time.” If you’re looking for a great family provider in the Phoenix area or a role model for your own practice, then look no further than Douglas G. Bailes, D.O. Here, in Dr. Bailes’ own words, is how he would describe his experience with AZCOMP.
