   Purkinje is privately owned and operated with over 350 employees located within our corporate offices in St. Louis, Montreal, Chicago, New Hampshire, and Hyderabad (India). We currently serve over 5000 physicians in clinics, community health centers, and hospitals throughout North America. The company offers an integrated suite of solutions in the areas of practice management, electronic health records, personal health records, and electronic prescribing. In addition Purkinje provides a series of professional services to physician practices that further maximize efficiency, cost savings, and income including billing services, transcription, and medication dispensing. The principal owner and financier of Purkinje is John Doerr. Mr. Doerr is a partner in Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield, and Byers and has provided venture capital funding to some of the most successful technology companies in the world, including: Compaq, Netscape, Symantec, Sun Microsystems, Amazon.com, and Google. He currently serves on the boards of Google, Intuit, Amazon, Sun Microsystems, and Purkinje. His success in venture capital has garnered national attention and he is currently featured on Forbes Magazine's exclusive "Midas" list and is widely regarded as the top technology venture capitalist in the world.History In 1995 Purkinje released Dossier, the company's first windows based electronic health record system. The system enabled clinicians to quickly document encounters while capturing discrete clinical data which could easily be reviewed, analyzed, and utilized to positively impact patient care. A system considered by many to be well ahead of its time, it became the most widely used EHR in Canada. It is utilized by thousands of physicians within clinics, hospitals, and organizations, including the Canadian Department of Defense. In 2005, Purkinje was acquired by St. Louis-based Wellinx, a leading provider of electronic prescribing software to physicians throughout the US. Wellinx was founded by Tom Doerr, M.D. an internal medicine physician and the visionary behind the company's electronic prescribing software. Dr. Doerr's vision was to create an e-prescribing system that not only expedited the prescription writing process but also provided access to useful medical evidence at the point of prescribing with visibility into the cost and efficacy of various medication treatment alternatives. The product was released in 2001, and in a series of peer reviewed studies has been shown to have made a substantial impact on the cost and quality of patient care. Upon finalization of the acquisition, Wellinx adopted the Purkinje name. Immediately thereafter, Purkinje began to build a next-generation practice management and electronic health record solution to be deployed throughout the United States and Canada based on the aggregate experience of each company. That solution is Purkinje CareSeries.
