I've got this great notepad that I use while at the hospital or at the clinic - it's exactly 5'8' and it's top spiral bound, so I can easily write on both sides while taking notes on patients. And it fits neatly in my coat pocket.

I went to OfficeMax today to buy another, and can you believe it that they don't have a 5'8' notepad top spiral bound? OUt of the 6,500+ products they sell, they don't have this one.

I saw bigger ones, but they are too big for my coat pocket. I saw smaller ones but they don't have enough space. What am I todo?

On a more serious note, are there any vendors that sell medical specific notepads? Since we always take the same notes over and over (name, age, sex, gender, vitals, P/E, etc.) I think it would be nice to have a custom one for doctors. Does anyone know if they exist?
 
You could print out your own sheets and glue them together a la this:

If, like me, you're not artistically inclined, I'm sure you could call a local print/copy shop for a quote.

PS - if you market and sell something like this, remember me when the royalties come in! 😍
