    Note: Hold-touch on this review to thumb up if you find it helpful. Otherwise, the app will not change. (I will re-post this review with every update that doesn’t change the ads.) I’ve been using this app likely longer than most of its active current developers. I used to recommend it to others in training. However, recently, the ads have become an insult and an attack on the users. Right now, if you click on a notification for an article, automatically an ad from industry will pop up, which cannot be closed and obstructs the entire article. And when you try to close it, the entire article closes. With the poor search function, you cannot even get search for the article to get back to it. this is not to mention, but other ads when you look at a drug are engineered to pop up exactly where you are about to press. For example, if you open the drug reference, they know you want to click on dosing, and they engineered enough seconds for the ad to pop up exactly when you are about to click on the link, so that you click on the ad automatically opening the ad. This is nothing but an attack on the user. If it had a paid ad-free option, it would be worth it. But currently, with its current trajectory toward ads that are more intrusive than spam website, do not use it. You are better off going with a paid alternative.

    WebMD in general is good: recommended to us by several Doctors. App? No. Website? Yes. For many reasons not worth listing here.

  • WebMD is a horrible company

    They treat their employees just as bad as their app design.

  • Can be useful but...

    The app has some good tools. Some of the articles are based on limited information or small studies. I would prefer the ability to sort articles, particularly, by posting date.

  • This Week in Cardiology

    Excellent, wide ranging content. Only negative is how fast the narrator speaks. Admittedly there is much to cover but sometimes Dr. M goes so quickly it is hard to absorb the info

  • Ads destroying product

    I have used this app (along with several others) for professional reference for years. I understand that it is free and Medscape needs a way to sustain the service, but the ads have made it impractical to use for work. There are times when ads pop up repeatedly in the middle of text. Not worth it - too many other good resources that are available these days. ***update: I thought it could not get worse, but it has. It is, essentially useless now

  • Ads are intrusive, slow, and app is getting buggy

    I used to be a Medscape evangelist. Now every tap and click presents me with an intrusive ad. As I’m about to press the dose and ad presents itself rip beneath my fingers. It is frustrating, it’s taking me longer to take care of my patients. Delete this app? After 10 years, yes…

  • Impossible to read

    Banners, pop ups, constant garbage obscuring what you are trying to read Medscape has become useless and unreadable

  • Excellent resource for Nurses and all healthcare professionals.

    Thank you for maintaining such high standards.

  • Pretty good-shouldn’t turn music off

    Useful when needing to quickly look things up. However, when opening the app and listening to music or a podcast the music stops.
