A companion to the 1mg App which is the leading consumer health platform with over 3 M downloads, the new launch demonstrates company’s commitment towards building a platform that will aid users in managing their health effectively.
The app allows users to search for doctors by their area of specialization as General Practitioners, Gynecologists, Cardiologists and Dentists etc. The app also covers practitioners of alternative therapies, Homeopathy and Ayurveda.
Handy filters on the home screen let you refine your selection by Doctor’s Fees and Distance from the doctor (in Kms). One key feature offered by the app is Ask for Recommendation which will help users get doctor recommendations from their friends and family anonymously.

We believe that finding the right doctor is a very ‘social’ process - and we want to mimic the real life experience of finding a doctor in the online world by incorporating recommendations of people in your social network.”
He added, “We strongly believe that proliferation of smartphones and pervasiveness of technology will transform and will help us realize our vision of making healthcare understandable and accessible for a billion Indians.
