iDoc Inc. wants to revolutionize how doctors and patients interact. Its mobile platform allows doctors to educate patients, help them make decisions, and provide interactive tools for follow-up or chronic care. Founder and CEO Richard M. Awdeh, MD reported that in a recent clinical trial in four high-volume practices, CheckedUp reduced the share of patients who felt anxious about their upcoming surgery from 90% to 66%, and increased from 39% to 95% the share of patients who could detail how cataract surgery is performed.
