The other issue with Epic is that it's designed for hospitals. The parent comment sounds like a doc in a smaller practice. There are certainly EMRs out there better suited to that environment (disclaimer: I work for one that I think does an especially good job at that)
Yes, I primarily work in a small clinic setting, though I've also used Epic in a hospital setting and have been similarly unimpressed! ;) In general, I think that EMRs try to cram as much information onto the screen as possible, without enough thought toward what pieces of information are useful at particular times.
