Problems
People lack understanding and easy access to personalized healthcare.
- Our research shows that neither medical online appointment booking nor online self-help (assessment, home remedies) are easily available to the general public.
- Many people do not know that holistic approaches can work better with lower risk. Even existing users have difficulty in selecting providers or self-care approaches most suitable for them.
Conventional western medicine focuses on symptoms in a one-size fits all approach.
- Most prescription medicines are standardized for everyone; the same dosage is prescribed regardless of size, age and the overall health of the person.
- Side effects from many of these treatments can end up being more damaging than the actual condition
- Unlike Conventional Western Medicine, Holistic medicine and home remedies heals the whole person, not just the symptoms
Patients lack easy booking and lower-cost self-care before paying a visit or understand what's needed.
Without the right tool, it's tempting to either
- Pay for an expensive doctor's visit when it's not necessary (e.g., issues that can be healed by simple home remedies);
OR
- Wait until it's too late (e.g., not knowing a minor neck and back pain can accumulate to the point when surgery is unavoidable, or a cough could become lung cancer).
