Ava EMR is a modern solution for medical clinics wishing to simplify and streamline their workflow. Our health platform is freeing medical professionals from complicated workflows by enabling seamless task management, fluid patient communication, and the ability to work anywhere and everywhere. Founded in 2016 by Dr. Mike Forseth and Dr. Matt Henschke, Ava emerged from their experience operating a joint medical clinic in Calgary, Alberta. Recognizing a significant gap in the market, they identified the need for an EMR system that was intuitive, efficient, and cost-effective. Understanding the pivotal role EMRs play in clinic operations, from patient interactions to workflow optimization and revenue generation, they began to develop Ava EMR. Their vision was to establish a system characterized by connection, efficiency and elevated patient care standards, driving the development of Ava EMR. Now, thousands of physicians across Alberta and British Columbia are using Ava EMR as an integral part of their practice while discovering joy in the practice of medicine.
