"Doctors are in a 'knowledge business' & yet have severe information problems... POEMs are a step forward... a summary of a valid piece of research that carries information that is important to patients and so to their doctors."

- British Medical Journal, November 2002

The Society of Teachers of Family Medicine (STFM) awarded the Innovative Program Award, sponsored by Patient Care Magazine, to InfoPOEMs® founders Drs. Shaughnessy & Slawson for having created "...one of the most innovative concepts to emerge in family medicine."

"InfoRetriever is an invaluable tool for the practicing family physician. The concept of just-in-time, evidence-linked information is critical to the provision of quality patient care in this increasingly complex world of practice."

- Mark Levine, MD, Center for a Healthy Community, Erie, PA

"I am currently acting as a preceptor for a PA student in a Family Practice rotation, and [InfoPOEMs®] has been quite helpful on a number of occasions to help explain the 'why' of what we do everyday."

- John Hardman, RPA-C, St. Cloud Medical Group, Sartell, MN

"The POEM concept is so pervasive--it not only has dramatically shaped the practice... it influences our teaching and research. POEMs stretch beyond the confines of family and into the practice of medicine as a whole."
