If you’re looking for help diagnosing your or your loved ones’ symptoms, and want reliable and trustworthy advice that is clinically-assured and reviewed by real doctors from the UK’s National Health Services, then Your.MD can help!
In comparison to using search engines to find answers to your health questions – which can be scary, untrustworthy and medically inaccurate – Your.MD is simple and understands thousands of different conditions, illnesses, treatments, symptoms and medications. It’s now easy to get yourself high-quality advice, tips and information to aid your diagnosis, and to help you find the best local healthcare services.
WHY USE IT?
Your.MD is perfect for people in need of instant information, advice and actionable next steps. You might be one of the 50% of us who search online for symptoms and a possible diagnoses before visiting the doctor. Perhaps your busy lifestyle or demanding job makes it difficult to see your doctor. Or maybe you can’t get an appointment soon enough, or you get sick out of hours or on a weekend. If this sounds familiar, then Your.MD is your perfect healthcare companion. The free app means that you can access personalised, accurate & trustworthy health information and advice that is TOTALLY UNIQUE TO YOU.
Your.MD is also a great way to find the answers to all the questions you feel too embarrassed to ask your medical doctor. Your.MD’s friendly bot will help you navigate some of the more taboo health issues, such as sexual health – including sexually transmitted infections (STIs), contraception, unplanned pregnancies etc. – while also offering support and guidance through more challenging health topics, such as anxiety and low self-esteem.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Your.MD uses advanced artificial intelligence (AI); using the best probability-based approach to simulate the thought process of a doctor. You can speak to Your.MD about your health issues and it will understand and ask relevant questions to determine the route of your health issues. Your.MD is the only automated system of its kind to be able to understand the uniqueness of every individual, and tailors its responses and advice accordingly. Once the most probable condition has been identified, Your.MD will provide you with relevant and easy to understand information – such as causes, symptoms and treatments – and, if needed, will recommend the best health services in order to get better.
