Pros and cons of Docphin - Medical Journals and Pubmed app for iPhone and iPad

Docphin - Medical Journals and Pubmed app good for

Docphin is a great way to surf journals by specialty without undertaking the laborious and expensive job of buying each separate journal.
Docphin is a fantastic platform for social discovery and aggregation of medical literature. For medical students and residents it is a great way to stay on top of medical research.
I love this application! Has beautiful news feed. One small problem is that once I click on an article and read more, I cant go back to the newsfeed without closing the application! If this worked, I would give the application 5 stars!! Good job guys!
This app is great on the snippets of whats happening in the medical field.

Some bad moments

Tried multiple times to contact their support team with no response. Institutional proxy login does not work, rendering the app useless for medical professionals.
New layout is extremely efficient and user friendly. Love the new timesaving medstream feature! Well done!
Huge time saver! So happy docphin is now available as an app!
Medstream is a great way to see whats trending in the popular press and see the research behind it.
Medstream is easy to use and navigate. Great to keep up with general stories across many sites. Well done docphin
Great usability - does the searching for you! Links to pdfs are an excellent addition.
