We are proud to announce that Micromedex has been ranked by users as number 1 for highest hospital user experience and clinician satisfaction in the 2024 survey from Black Book Research.

“Ranking first in our category in a user-driven award is an acknowledgement of the quality and consistency of Micromedex,” said Petra Schultz, PharmD, Editor in Chief at Micromedex. “Clinicians seek out clinically relevant robust evidence to support their critical decisions, and the Black Book ratings demonstrate Micromedex’s unwavering focus on what matters most to our clients.”

The editorial team has rigorous, evidence-based standards for Micromedex content and is always looking for ways to make sure the content is current, thorough and clear. And that’s why Micromedex received accreditation from NICE, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence in the UK.
