Mayer Zev Enterprises is a privately held company established in 1994 by an International group of Liver Specialists responding to the need of physicians in private practice for more information |
|
| on the management of patients with chronic viral hepatitis.
The software programs developed for that purpose became so popular that a demand was
created for additional programs in other rapidly developing areas of Internal Medicine. As
a result, 24 respected clinician/scientists and Professors of Medicine from leading
institutions through out North America were recruited to contribute their own expertise to
the development of similar programs in their respective sub-specialties. The products of
their efforts are now available and being marketed as Compu-Consults "Programs
for Physicians". Following completion of the Compu-Consults series, it became clear that for certain disorders, there was a need for patients themselves to become aware of how a specialist would advise a family practitioner regarding the management of their particular problem. Simply stated, it was recognized that patients might benefit from a "second opinion" but one that could be obtained without offending the sensitivities of their primary care physician. For these disorders, the programs have been 'translated' into lay terms and are now available as Compu-Consults "Doctor to Doctor and You". It is important to note that the authors of these programs were selected on the basis of their knowledge in their fields and their reputations as excellent communicators of that knowledge. All the principle authors are clinician/scientists and have no affiliation with the Pharmaceutical Industry or special interest groups. Thus, unnecessary (and often costly) drugs and tests are avoided and only that management which will lead to optimal patient care is advocated. |
