AmarDoctor

The Problem

In Bangladesh, 170 million people face primary care shortages, with only one doctor per 10,000 residents. Exacerbated by a lack of general practice systems, this can lead to self-diagnosis and frequent misdiagnoses. Cultural barriers and low digital literacy heighten these challenges, pushing six-million annually into poverty due to medical costs.

Key features include symptom reporting, appointment scheduling, and an interactive dashboard for doctors that offers AI-generated recommendations for clinical decision support. This facilitates quicker, more accurate consultations and personalized treatment plans. AmarDoctor enhances post-consultation care with customized health education, helping patients manage their health effectively. Our system leverages a bespoke medical ASR trained on extensive audio data, ensuring precise communication and inclusivity for diverse linguistic groups.
