Medibridge

The problem

Patients outside major cities wait months and travel for days to see a specialist, often for a question that needs twenty minutes.

The solution

Medibridge lets a local doctor send scans and notes to a vetted specialist and get a written opinion in 48 hours, for a fixed fee.

Who it's for

General practitioners and clinics serving towns without specialist care.
