Some countries still struggle to improve the access to the public healthcare for its citizens. An instant and reliable diagnosis is often out of reach for a Pakistani citizen. The need for a change in this unacceptable situation was used as a trigger by myZindagi startup to offer a platform where a patient can easily reach the doctor and obtain a piece of advice. This article will show you how a startup can combine not only a brilliant idea but also a sense of mission to improve and help on the micro scale — your friends, family and other acquaintances, but also on a macro reach — in the whole country for those you’ve never met.

About myZindagi

myZindagi is a healthcare startup that was founded as an answer to hardly-accessible public service in Pakistan and the expensive private appointments.
