Research Analysis
Methodology & Findings

The search results indicate that Long Island Laparoscopic Surgery (drahmadmd.com), the practice of Dr. Arif Ahmad, has a patient portal accessible through their website. However, the specific vendor or branding of this patient portal is not mentioned in the search results. The results do highlight Dr. Ahmad's affiliations with Mather Hospital, Saint Catherine of Siena Medical Center, and Saint Charles Hospital. It is also mentioned that Mather Hospital is an Epicenter in Robotic Bariatric Surgery and uses the daVinci robotic system. While Mather Hospital is noted as an Epicenter in Robotic Bariatric Surgery with Dr. Ahmad, and some hospitals use Epic (like New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, also an Epicenter), this does not confirm that Dr. Ahmad's *practice* (Long Island Laparoscopic Surgery) uses Epic or that their patient portal is MyChart. The information about the hospitals' systems doesn't definitively tell us what the independent practice uses for their patient portal and EHR. Therefore, I haven't been able to directly tie the patient portal to a specific EHR vendor based on the information gathered so far. Since the initial searches did not directly identify the patient portal vendor used by drahmadmd.com or its associated EHR, and attempts to link via hospital affiliations were inconclusive for the practice itself, I need to try another approach. I will try searching for technology used by the practice more broadly, or look for any mentions of their specific patient portal technology in different types of search results.
