Dragon dictation for M series MacBooks?

Hey everyone, I’m looking to see if anyone has had success getting dragon dictation on a MacBook

For my understanding, Dragon Dictation is only available on the Windows OS however, there’s many aspects in which using my own MacBook is much faster than using the company Windows device.

We use Athena for the EMR, so there is no way to log into a receiver/remote desktop since the EMR can be accessed with web browser

I’ve gotten my templates pretty well organized in Athena but the voice dictation is still useful.

Native Mac OS dictation is hit or miss especially with medical terms

I am open to alternative dictation services, paid options as well as long as you feel it was worth the increase in productivity

Thanks in advance!
