The Zanda Difference

What practitioners are saying

One clinic told me Zanda saved them up to an hour-plus per day. That's the difference between students writing notes and students actually building clinical skills.
Edyta Kubieniec, Project / Implementation Lead (oversees clinic software across allied health disciplines)
James Cook University (JCU) — student-led clinics
I don't feel like just a number with Zanda. I feel like I've got a team.
Miki Skinner, Founder / Owner
Caduceus Wellness
I love the clinical notes feature and how easily I can upload supporting documents to every case. I love that it can send digital forms and has a patient portal. I am able to keep all documents relating to each patient together more easily. I also love that I can add clinical notes on the go on mobile, save them as a draft and complete them later.
Nicole C.
To be able to automate all my communication is fantastic and a real game changer.
Jenni Salisbury, Owner
Practice Management Administration & Support Service
Zanda effectively consolidates all practice management elements into one platform, which streamlines my operations. Additionally, Zanda provides a practice manual feature that allows us to upload and access policies and procedures for our practitioners at any time, which is invaluable for maintaining consistent standards and accessibility.
Chris C.
I absolutely loved the Zanda platform. I loved the simplicity of it. I felt it met all of the practice's needs, from bookings and online bookings right through to billing our patients and communication.
