With the Omnio® medical iPAD app 'up your sleeve' you can truly hold all your favorite medical must-haves 'at-hand'. Omnio was created by Skyscape Medical Resourcesto arm the medical professional with the latest information they need to face whatever their day may throw at them.
"This is the most comprehensive medical app I have seen. It combines
