We were pleased and humbled by all the positive responses we heard from Canadian ER doctors regarding the benefits they receive from our schedule optimization software. **A Problem worth Solving in Emergency and Pediatric Departments** Throughout the event, we had the opportunity to touch bases with our users and to meet many pediatricians and emergency doctors who demonstrated a keen interest in our [Petal Scheduling](https://blog.petal-health.com/scheduling-software/?hsLang=en) solution. We understand and share their marked eagerness to resolve time inefficiencies in their administrative work in order to dedicate more time and attention to the essence and purpose of their medical practice. Whether it’s the scheduling needs of emergency services or pediatric departments, inefficiencies in administrative management are a pressing problem that needs to be resolved throughout our healthcare system. Presently, doctors are responsible for a large number of factors that multiply the complexity of this most basic task; absences, individual contract terms, personal constraints, and more impinge on the functionality of any scheduling system. PetalMD’s real-time scheduling features consolidate all of these complexities into one simple solution, which in turn represents a inestimable productivity asset, allowing time for the reallocation of valuable human capital.  ## Our Scheduling Management Solution for Pediatrician and Emergency Physicians Interested in learning more about how Petal Scheduling helps doctors plan and manage their schedules better?
