A website doesn't seem as important to me as it once did. It's for increasing your credibility to prospective patients. You can purchase a domain name at godaddy.com to keep your options open. Google business will give you free email on that domain name to give a good impression sooner than later
I think a patient portal is what patients are coming to expect. It will satisfy and help retain patients, whose word of mouth is gold. It can improve the efficiency of your office, which is gold too.
It would be perfect if you could put a patient portal seamlessly inside your domain, but don't hold your breath. I really do like Dr Coghill's site for tying it together.
With ICD-10 coming, doing it all is a lot to chew on.
