The challenge
A medical practice was running nightly reports that took over four hours to complete, causing stale reports and delays in morning operations.
Our approach
We audited the existing SQL Server database, identified 23 missing indexes, rewrote three critical stored procedures, and restructured the reporting queries to eliminate redundant table scans.
The result
Report generation dropped from 4+ hours to under 8 minutes. The client reclaimed their overnight maintenance window and eliminated the need for a dedicated reporting server.
