From Healthcare to AI: My Journey

A single healthcare AI automation saved our clinic 20 hours per week—time that went back to patient care. After 10 years as a clinic administrator entering the same patient data into 7 different systems, I built an AI solution that changed everything.

I loved working in healthcare. I hated the paperwork. Forms to fill out, appointments to schedule, insurance to verify, follow-ups to track. The administrative burden was crushing.

I remember one day counting how many times I had to enter the same patient information into different systems. Seven times. The same name, address, and phone number, entered manually seven times.

That night I went home and cried. Not because the work was hard, but because I had become a data entry machine instead of someone who helped people get healthy.

When I started experimenting with AI, I was just trying to save my own sanity. I built a simple system that could extract patient information from intake forms and populate it across all our systems automatically.

That one automation saved our clinic 20 hours per week. Twenty hours that nurses could spend with patients. Twenty hours that doctors could spend on care instead of paperwork.

The companies that thrive are not those with the most technology, but those who apply technology most thoughtfully.

Word spread to other clinics. Then to dental offices. Then to physical therapy practices. Before I knew it, I was spending more time building automation than doing my actual job.

So I made it my actual job. Now I help healthcare providers escape the same trap I was in. Every hour we save is an hour that goes back to patient care.

AI will not replace doctors and nurses. But it can give them back the time to do what they trained for: helping people heal.
