Founder Speaks-

"Telemedicine is a necessity for rural areas to bridge the gap between availability of quality medical professionals and needs of rural patients. India has 6.5 Villages, there is enough scope of multiple players to provide services. AI will bring good solutions to tele-health for rural/remote healthcare. The entire eco-system will evolve and we will go beyond tele-consultation, it will be remote surgeries/procedure which will happen with help of established high end gold standard clinics."
