Sounds good, John.

On problem I foresee is that my computer notes are mostly fragments of
history and examination findings that are annotated by me in a highly
idiosyncratic way. I don't know if I am atypical but I suspect most of
my colleagues do the same thing in their own highly idiosyncratic ways.

Would this note format be of any use to you?
