User Reviews

Users see real value in quickly looking up doctors' licenses and tracking reported changes, praising the app as an innovative, consumer-focused tool. However, repeated issues hinder usability: the app often fails to load or spins indefinitely; search and navigation are buggy; it only supports MDs and a limited set of licenses; data on sanctions/disciplinary actions is incomplete; onboarding can block access. When it works, it’s helpful, but as-is it’s unreliable.
Pros
  • Easy lookup of doctors' licenses and tracking of followed physicians.
  • Innovative, consumer-focused government app that promotes transparency in healthcare.
  • Intuitive name-based searches and generally fast results when the app functions.
  • Useful tool for consumers to quickly access doctor information.
Cons
  • App frequently fails to load or spins indefinitely, rendering it unusable.
  • Limited to MD licenses; DOs, CNMs, and other boards are not supported, reducing usefulness.
  • Search and navigation are buggy or confusing; search window may not open and there is no back button.
  • Data on sanctions/disciplinary actions appears incomplete or missing, limiting reliability.
  • Onboarding and initial releases include welcome screen blockers and reliability issues.

Looking up the medical license of any California doctor should be a function of the website. It should not require the downloaded of its app!! That is how it used to function at least up until 6 yrs ago when looking up doctors’ licenses was a daily responsibility of my employment! There is no logical reason benefiting the user. Obviously, it only offers benefit to the agency which I assume is for targeted marketing purposes. I’d rather go back to a time when obtaining info costed me money, as opposed to costing me my privacy!

The website advertised this mobile application for following medical licenses and being notified of any change in status. After contacting customer service, I have now realized that you can only follow licenses for physicians and surgeons, and that’s it. No way to track Behavioral Board licenses or any other types. So I just downloaded this app for no reason.
