Practo Prime: High on quality, low on wait time

Practo Prime is the best visit experience you can get when you need to visit the doctor of your choice.

We’ve all been there. The uncomfortably packed seating, the constant fidgeting, the anxiety about whether it’s just a fever or something more serious. We’ve all wondered if we are at the right place and how much longer we need to wait before we get to see the doctor. We’ve all been there, and we know that visiting a clinic can be a very unpleasant experience. 

But does it need to be? We asked our clinic and hospital partners and of course, they were equally keen to address this massive pain point for their patients. But ofcourse, healthcare is as much about quality as it is about convenience. So we need a solution that provides both. 

Fortunately, quality is something we have been working for the past decade. For starters, we verify medical license for providers on the platform. You can check this via the green tick on the profile. We have their degrees to ensure they are classified in the right specialisation and you know you’re being treated by an expert. We also take pains to ensure their degrees, experience, location and fee are accurately mentioned. Above all, we collect millions of patient feedback which provide a great way for other patients to decide where to go. 

Last year, we took all of this foundation of quality, and added the convenience of technology through Practo Prime.

So, what is Practo Prime

Practo Prime is the best visit experience you can get when you need to visit the doctor of your choice.
