All my life, I’ve been split between two passions: medicine and building things. Before becoming a clinician, I was fascinated by coding. I’ve always felt that coding is like being a chef, an engineer, and an artist all at once, using raw tools to create something that has never existed before.
When I entered clinical practice, I discovered the other side of the story: the daily struggles of physicians, nurses, and consultants dealing with healthcare IT. For more than 20 years I’ve seen colleagues spending endless hours fighting with documentation systems. Electronic health records were introduced with good intentions, and they did bring benefits in safety and compliance. But the reality is that their biggest payoff has been for billing and cost capture. For the clinicians actually using them, the burden is enormous. We’ve tried for decades to make EHRs tolerable, and adoption is there, but satisfaction is not. Everyone knows the pain.
I believe this moment is different. AI offers the chance to finally flip the balance to create tools that serve clinicians instead of weighing them down. That belief led me to start EternaAI Health.
EternaAI is an ambient AI assistant built to reduce the burden of documentation. It listens during the clinical workflow, creates real-time transcripts, and turns voice or text into structured outputs like notes, summaries, and forms. Today, the early version includes:
Scribe: generate, regenerate, and edit structured clinical notes. Ambient Workflow: listen in real time and produce summaries from transcripts. Form Filling: use AI to complete forms with templates and preferences. Quick Notes: capture short observations or reminders instantly.
This is very early access. It’s meant for testing and feedback only; no real patient data should be entered at this stage. But even as a proof, it demonstrates how AI can reshape workflows.
If you’d like to try it, you can sign up at eternaaihealth.com and use the promo code EARLYACCESS to unlock one free month of our Professional Tier.
The app has a built-in feedback function (simple thumbs up/down and comment capture). I’d love to know what works, what breaks, what’s confusing, and what you’d expect from a tool like this.
This is just the first step. Long-term, I see opportunities far beyond documentation: strengthening the patient-clinician connection, reducing risks where gaps exist, supporting education and pre-visit preparation, and exploring new use cases we haven’t yet imagined.
I’d really appreciate your thoughts, critiques, and suggestions. Thanks for reading, and for helping me explore how ambient AI might finally bring healthcare IT to a better place.
