Why Dragon Medical One Remains On Top
For over 25 years, Dragon Speech Recognition has been trusted by clinicians worldwide. Since launching in the UK in 2018, Dragon Medical One (DMO) has stayed the leading tool for clinical documentation because it’s fast, accurate, and factual — no typos and no “AI hallucinations.” Being cloud-based on Microsoft Azure means it’s quick, secure, and consistent across any PC or location.
About the Host
Tony Walsh, Business Development Manager at Crescendo, has over 30 years of experience in healthcare and trains more than 500 clinicians every year on Dragon Medical One. His sessions focus on practical ways to reduce admin, improve accuracy, and make speech recognition part of everyday clinical workflows.
Live Demonstration
Tony’s live demo showed Dragon Medical One in action within EMIS Web, with full navigation, clinical coding, and task creation all completed entirely by voice — including referral letters, templates, and notes.
* If we have a demo version of it. Don’t worry if we don’t, Dragon will work in all leading clinical systems.

What’s Next: Dragon Copilot
The future of speech recognition is about more than transcription. Tony gave a preview of Microsoft’s new Dragon Copilot, an AI-powered assistant that uses ambient speech and generative AI to summarise encounters, prepare letters, and surface relevant information in real time — securely and seamlessly within NHS workflows.
