Our
Story
Built for allied health from the beginning
CliniScribe started with a problem we saw every day: clinicians losing valuable time to notes, reports and fragmented administrative work.
Generic medical scribes were not designed around the language, workflows and complexity of allied health, so we built something that was.
What began in real clinical practice has grown into a broader AI platform designed to help allied health professionals document care, plan treatment and work more efficiently.
Meet The Team
Clinician-founded, engineer-built and guided by leaders across allied health, research and healthcare technology.

Founder & CEO
Barry Nguyen
Barry is a practising physiotherapist, private-practice owner and software engineer with more than 20 years of experience in allied health.
He founded CliniScribe after experiencing firsthand how much clinical time was being lost to notes, reports, forms and fragmented administrative workflows. Rather than adapting a generic medical scribe, Barry built a platform specifically around the language, reasoning and day-to-day realities of allied health.
Barry is a member of the Australian Physiotherapy Association’s AI Advisory Group and a digital health adviser to the Australian Digital Health Agency. He regularly writes and speaks about responsible AI, clinical accountability and the future of allied health technology.
