Several clinical studies have shown that patients will have better healthcare outcomes if their doctors make eye contact with them. One of the reasons I co-founded drchrono was because I went to a lot of doctor visits with my Father when he was ill and sat through countless appointments where the doctor spent 10 minutes talking to us over their shoulder.

Computers are always an afterthought in most Doctor office setups, that is why they seem to be universally built into walls or tucked away into corners.
