info_outline“If you or your child has a serious diagnosis, you may feel like your life has just been turned upside-down. I founded MD For Patients to provide comprehensive, honest consultations tailored to the needs of patients – and to help patients understand how best to manage their own health going forward.”
Dr Mark Halsted, Triple-Boarded Pediatric NeuroRadiologist, Founder and CEO
We cover the world, so you don’t have to
At MD For Patients, we believe that access to the best healthcare in the world shouldn’t be limited by location. That’s why we offer our patients virtual consultations worldwide – and hand-pick our specialists from the top medical institutions around the world.
Physicians are frequently rushed, distracted, and interrupted, with pressure to make treatment decisions in an information vacuum. Diagnoses and treatment decisions are made despite missing patient data, and without highly specialized knowledge. Patients have limited direct communication with physicians and severely restricted access to highly specialized physicians. All of this leads to misdiagnoses, poor patient care, medical errors and patient harm. MD for Patients is reinventing the patient/physician relationship, designed to increase diagnostic accuracy, improve outcomes, strengthen communication, and empower patients.
