Healthcare for Everyone—DoctorPage.sg Leads the e-Health
Industry in Singapore
SINGAPORE, Dec. 6, 2012
/PRNewswire/—DoctorPage.sg( https://www.doctorpage.sg ), a specialized
healthcare portal that aims to connect patients and doctors across
Asia, is now the number one e-health portal in Singapore, according
to Alexa, the leading provider of global web metrics.
Barely two months into its operation, DoctorPage has more than
300 doctors on its database with an active real-time appointment
booking system. The e-health portal is created to bring convenience
to users. It is a free portal for patients with clean pages that
are extremely easy to navigate, whether they are looking for
doctors by specialty or by location.
Once a selection has been made, the website responds quickly and
at a glance, users are able to see the doctor’s experience,
affiliations, the location of his/her clinic and even concise
directions to get there. Patients can then make real-time
appointment bookings with their preferred doctors and will be able
to see a doctor as early as the following day.
In addition, patients will also be prompted when there is an
available slot that was cancelled last minute to decrease the
waiting time to see a doctor. With DoctorPage, securing a doctor’s
appointment is as easy as a few clicks on the mouse.
“The result is extremely encouraging. We set out two months ago
to bring patients the best healthcare solution, and doctors, a
value-added service to improve healthcare access in Asia,” said Dr
Dawn Soo, Co-Founder and Chief Information Officer (CIO) of
DoctorPage. “We worked with our excellent online marketing team to
create a cohesive and transparent touch-point for both doctors and
patients. To be the market leader in the e-health industry in
Singapore shows that what we are doing is right,” she added.
With a deep understanding of what the Singapore healthcare
system is lacking and top-notch online marketing experience,
DoctorPage improves the quality of the local healthcare experience
and is set to expand its reach to the rest of Asia.
“Having a physician and online marketing experts as founding
entrepreneurs, DoctorPage combines patients’ and doctors’ needs
with the advantages of internet technology. Now that we are
positioned as the market leader in e-health in Singapore, we are
confident of delivering more improvements to build the largest
e-health platform in Asia,” added Max-F. Scheichenost, Founder and
Chief-Executive Officer (CEO) of DoctorPage.
DoctorPage has just launched its mobile website so patients will
have an even more user friendly mobile access. It launched the
updated version of then iOS and iPad apps this month, which is
available for download on iTunes( https://itunes.apple.com/sg/app/doctorpage/id55…
