The Challenge: Patients Couldn’t Always Connect
A clinical healthcare setting requires a reliable high-speed internet connection. Patients must be able to communicate with their doctors and nurses while the providers must be able to rapidly access essential information and resources.
Before turning to Hunter’s fiber-optic network, however, WellSpring lacked reliable internet and phone connectivity.
“I can say for certain that the companies we had previous to Hunter were unreliable to work with,” said Dr. Jon Ermshar, WellSpring’s founder.
The Hunter Solution
Hunter has provided a communications solution to WellSpring since November of 2017: a symmetrical fiber optic internet connection, hosted VoIP telephone services with queueing of calls, Polycom phones and MaX UC messaging.
“I love the fact that if there is an issue with phones or our internet, Hunter handles both. It’s very easy to get help when needed,” said Dr. Ermshar.
