Case Study: Retina Orange County achieves a streamlined, tech-driven solo retina practice with DrChrono

Retina Orange County - Customer Case Study

Dr. Nadeem Vaidya, founder of Retina Orange County in Irvine, CA, is a retina and vitreous specialist who built a solo practice treating over 2,000 patients with a small rotating staff. Having seen the inefficiencies and confidentiality risks of paper charts earlier in his career, he prioritized finding an EHR and billing platform that would streamline operations and support high-quality, efficient care when launching his practice.

He implemented DrChrono’s cloud-based EHR and billing paired with iPads and Apple hardware for digital check-in, eligibility checks, customizable templates, a retina draw tool, and live claims tracking. The change delivered a faster, more organized workflow—he sees 15–20 patients a day while spending about five minutes charting per visit and minimal after-hours—improved patient experience, realtime revenue visibility, and roughly $60,000/year in avoided billing costs.
