Patient Next Door
The client was a startup with no previous project management experience who wanted to create a platform for patients to broaden their horizon of receiving medical advice by allowing them to reach out to expert doctors & patients with similar ailments anywhere in the world.
Navyug Infosolutions not just design & develop the product but also helped the client expand the possibilities of the solution through genuine advice & fresh ideas.
