2. AI FOR OBGYN - Setting Up Claude the Right Way
A Practical Guide for Clinicians and Patients | ObGyn Intelligence. Most people use Claude at 20% of its potential. Here is how to close the gap.
The most common mistake I see when clinicians try Claude for the first time: they open it, type a question, get an answer, close the tab. They do that a few times, decide it is ‘pretty good,’ and move on without changing how they work.
That is like buying a high-quality reference textbook and using it to prop up a monitor.
Claude has features that transform it from a useful search alternative into a genuine clinical thinking partner. Most people never find them. This issue covers the ones that matter most for ObGyn clinicians and for patients managing their health.
Free vs Claude Pro: the honest assessment
The free version works. For occasional questions, for getting a feel for the tool, for one-off tasks -- free is fine.
For daily clinical use, Claude Pro at $20 per month is worth it. Here is the actual difference:
• Long documents. Clinical guidelines, full journal articles, detailed patient summaries. The free version truncates. Pro reads the whole thing.
• Message volume. You will hit the free limit quickly if you use Claude seriously. Pro removes that friction.
• Projects. The most important feature in Claude for clinicians. Only available on Pro.
