As the world delves deeper into the age of technology, more and more services are becoming digitized, making them faster, cheaper and easier to access than ever before.
Goods can be delivered, money transferred, and bills paid all through a minuscule programme easily downloaded onto nearly any smart device. While technology has made lives much easier, it has yet to conquer disease and misinformation. However, with ‘AlTibbi’, that dream is that much closer.
AlTibbi is the first and largest award-winning digital health platform in the Middle East. With a quick tap on its unassuming blue heart icon from a smartphone or through the dedicated website, users have unlimited 24/7 access to easy-to-read Arabic dictionaries on various illnesses, medications, and symptoms; informative videos, articles and Q&As on common health issues, all provided by licensed medical professionals.
What sets AlTibbi apart is the option to start a consultation with a doctor in minutes, any time and anywhere via audio call or chat. Moreover, users can upload their lab results, x-rays and other images, to their AlTibbi medical profile so that their health care professional is abreast of everything there is to know about their health.
So who is AlTibbi for? Anyone looking to improve their health and wellbeing with the help of medical experts via the wonders of modern-day technology, all while avoiding time wasted in traffic and waiting rooms and costly doctors’ visits.
Ahmad, a hard-working employee at a reputable company in Riyadh, KSA, is an excellent example of a typical AlTibbi user. Ahmad is aware that, in such a massive, sprawling city, he will need to take a sick day to get to a doctors’ appointment. With AlTibbi, Ahmad can contact a doctor and access useful information without ever having to leave his desk.
Mariam, on the other hand is attending university in Amman, Jordan and it is exam season. To make matters more difficult, she lives far from the city centre. With complete privacy, Mariam can open the AlTibbi app, upload her medical information under her profile, type in her symptoms and scroll through dozens of relevant articles, before consulting a doctor within minutes.
Technology has come so far, particularly in the healthcare and medical sector with robots performing surgeries and prick-less blood sugar detection, to name but a few of the recent technological advancements. However, this is only part of the battle towards a disease-free community. With this in mind, AlTibbi is essential in the fight against illness in that it represents the key to a more health-conscious society, where everyone, no matter where they are, have unmitigated access to quality healthcare and curated health-related information. Realising this vision is what AlTibbi calls its ultimate mission.
AlTibbi is available at www.altibbi.com and for iOS and Android app download.
