How did you come up with the idea for the company?
听
When my father had a growth on his pancreas, I turned to the internet for answers. Not being a doctor myself, I waded through faceless websites and found the information to be dense and too generic to help with my specific situation. I found websites that offered misinformation and disinformation, leading me to believe that my father did not have long to live. I was devastated and scared.
Thankfully my father recovered, but this experience exposed me to the global challenge of finding accessible, credible, and engaging health information.
That鈥檚 why I started Doctorpedia. We provide a doctor-led experience so that patients, caregivers, and information-seekers can easily find the health answers they desperately need. We have grown into a network of over 2,000 condition-specific websites and trusted physicians have helped us produce thousands of videos.
We are working to build a resource that everyone can turn to for trusted health answers and we aim to make the internet a safer place to learn about your health and wellness.

At Doctorpedia, we aim to transform digital health and make the internet a safer place to find credible and engaging medical information and resources. To that end, we will continue to develop condition-specific websites, interest-based channels, and create high quality video and written content with trusted specialists.
As we grow, we will develop new products and services and improve our current offerings to better serve doctors, patients, and everyone in the healthcare ecosystem. We just launched our doctor platform, which gives verified physicians the tools to create and distribute content through their innovative profiles and our channels and websites. With our platform, doctors can finally showcase themselves, connect with and inform current patients, and reach new patients and audiences through our network. We will continue to add functionality to this platform and develop technologies and processes that will make it even easier for doctors to use and connect with patients.
We will continue to grow our doctor network and look to secure partnerships with healthcare companies who can synergize with our offering. We hope to cover every medical, health, and wellness topic and use search engine optimization to make sure that our resources appear at the top of every health related search.
We hope that all of these efforts help provide clear and trustworthy health answers to replace the misinformation and disinformation that many people find at the top of online searches. We will work tirelessly to ensure that Doctorpedia becomes the world鈥檚 most trusted brand when it comes to online health information.
