About BetterDoc
Who is the right doctor or the right clinic for my situation? Who has the most experience with my condition? The choice of the right doctor has a significant impact on the success of the treatment.
From experience, we know that internet research on the quality of doctors and clinics is time-consuming and frustrating for lay people. With BetterDoc, the patient has access to crucial information: we find the best possible doctor for the personal situation based on reliable data.
Our team
The Product Development Team
At BetterDoc, we have developed and now enhance a system to support the assignment of patients to physicians who can best treat them. Our next big steps are automation of the patient-physician matching process and the equipment and operation of the data science platform.
We value curiosity and learning - to support this, we offer dedicated time for personal development and growth.
