Client Testimonials

I would highly recommend Health 1 Technologies, they are reliable, knowledgeable, and professional.

Marie Grasso, Practice Administrator, Main Street Family Practice
We have office hours every weekend and we have to have a firm that can support whenever we need it. We have been with Health 1 for over 7 years and have never looked elsewhere.

Kathy Riley, Practice Administrator, Pediatrics Inc.
North Shore Pediatrics, PC has partnered with Health1 for over a decade. The response time for emergency situations has been phenomenal and the on-going support and advice on future technology needs has always been accurate and focused on the needs of our practice.  We could not be happier with our partnership with Health1.

David Smith, Practice Administrator, North Shore Pediatrics
We have been happy Health1 clients for over 9 years. The Health1 team is superb: extraordinarily competent, available and solution-driven. They keep us running.

Mitch Feldman, MD, FAAP, CIO, Patriot Pediatrics
Health1 is the first place I go when I encounter a Centricity problem that HAS to have an easier way or another solution. They always seem to have the answer I need. They are always accessible! Their medical billing experience helps them understand the problems I present and find a solution. They are my safety net!

Stephanie Gill, Billing Office Manager, Webster Orthopedics
We have been a Client of Health1 since 2007. Recently I discovered that our contract wasn't officially or 24/7 service.  I have always made service calls off hours and always receive a quick response,  I just assumed I had 24/7 service because that is what I get. Their knowledge of CPS is second to none. I highly recommend them.

Maureen Stanton, Practice Administrator, Agility Orthopedics
I have had IT support from Health1 Technologies since their start in 2005. Rahul Patel, Jen Monahan and their team are knowledgeable, responsive and professional. Although I suspect they have other clients, I always was made to feel as though I was the only one!

Marsha Munroe, Practice Administrator, North Shore ENT
Over the last 10 years, Health 1 has been our trusted partner. We have come to rely on them to host, manage and maintain our most critical data. I have in the past and will in the future continue to highly recommend all their services.
