Updates to search
April 12, 2014
We just crossed a major milestone. Recently, we've been working on a major update to our search functionality, and we just released the initial version yesterday. One of the major goals was to reduce page load times, and I think we've achieved that in a meaningful way. We've also improved search results. For example, if we fail to find providers in a specific geographic area who have specialized in a very specific specialty (e.g. "pediatric cardiac anesthesiology"), we will try and find providers in a broader but still related specialty (e.g. "pediatric anesthesiology"). There are also some more subtle fixes, such as improving the accuracy of the counts next to the filter options.
Like any major change or initial releases, we expect that there will be issues that we haven't identified yet. If you encounter anything that seems odd, please let us know. We look forward to continuing to improve our search functionality over time.
