Forty Years of History

The history of MacPractice is intertwined with the history of Apple Computer and the very first practice management software applications designed to work in the Mac OS environment: DentalMac, MediMac, and ChiroMac. It is also the fruition of the trials and dreams of individuals profoundly committed to their customers.

In 1984 a young Apple II programmer bought a house in Lincoln, NE, and two computers: a Lisa from Apple and the original Macintosh. With the input from his dentist brother-in-law, he designed and created the very first dental practice management software for Apple’s new Macintosh graphical operating system. That young programmer was Patrick Clyne. Late in 1984 Patrick became the Vice President of Product Development for a new company, HealthCare Communications, Inc. (HCC). Patrick and his programming team subsequently designed, wrote and developed DentalMac as HCC’s first software release. DentalMac became the foundation for the subsequent products MediMac, ChiroMac, OrthoRAD and OpticMac.

From DentalMac to MacPractice

Through the years Patrick continued to develop and maintained successive versions of the software through an often-turbulent history of successive owners.

In 1996, HCC received a major investment by Physicians Computer Network (PCN), a developer of software for Unix and Microsoft Windows. Shortly after PCN’s investment, DentalMac was sold to Unident, also a reseller of Windows and Alpha Micro dental solutions.

Patrick continued to work to improve DentalMac for Unident and its subsequent owners, InfoCure and eventually PracticeWorks, now owned by Kodak.

In the spring of 2000, MediMac and ChiroMac were sold to Medical Manager after its acquisition of PCN. Medical Manager was subsequently purchased by WebMD in the fall of 2000. Long time HCC employees, territory managers and customers were initially heartened by Medical Manager’s continuous stated support of the further development of MediMac and ChiroMac.

The birth of MacPractice

In the spring of 2004, PracticeWorks had no plans for development of DentalMac for Mac OS X and WebMD stopped development of their long awaited, promised Mac OS X software.

Along the way, the software developed many fans: thousands of doctors, dentists, and chiropractors who appreciated the software’s ease of use and attention to detail, and who continued to use it even as the companies which sold it came and went. One such supporter and biggest fan was Mark Hollis. His representation and consulting business with MediMac, DentalMac, and ChiroMac users in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania became the largest in the country.

Having shepherded the software through these many changes in ownership, Patrick and Mark felt that it was time to create the next generation of practice management and clinical software for the Mac. And so, on May 3, 2004, MacPractice was founded by Patrick Clyne and Mark Hollis.

New Chapters and Bright Futures

In March of 2020, MacPractice was acquired by Valsoft Corporation. With Valsoft’s support, MacPractice has continued to flourish and our team continues the tradition of excellence and innovation that was sparked all the way back in our origins in 1984 when Patrick Clyne was first creating that initial version of DentalMac. On acquisition, Sam Youssef of Valsoft had this to say:

MacPractice has built an impressive reputation as one of the leading independent players in the practice management space. I was struck by the culture of the organization and the passion of the team. This is a milestone for Valsoft and further enhances our position in the practice management vertical. We look forward to continuing to invest in organic initiatives and further acquisitions in the space and aim to offer our customers best in class solutions.

Our team continues to learn and adapt in a constantly shifting technological landscape, seeking to provide our customers with easy to use, elegant tools so that you can focus on patient care. We’re confident that our products will  benefit our customers for years to come. As our history demonstrates, we’re not going anywhere.
