Founded in 2017, Healthsoul has made phenomenal advancements in helping people make smart choices in terms of choosing the perfect solution relating to health issues. Dr.IshSingla, the founder of the company, spoke to us regarding how it started, its expansion plans and many things in between. Let us have a look.
Tell us the story behind Healthsoul ?
It all happened in the year 2016, when my wife, and now partner of the company, Deepali, was pregnant with our twin boys. It was a high-risk pregnancy and so, we looked for reviews doctors and hospitals online, but found very little information. Although our kids stayed in neonatal ICU at St John’s Hospital for two months and have grown to be two cute little gentlemen, yet the idea to start an online healthcare review portal to help people stayed with us. So, in July the same year, we developed the platform and started working towards it. And, with little ups and downs, Health soul became functional in the year 2017 and since has been helping people find suitable healthcare services.
So, how it helps people in terms of healthcare?
It is an online platform, where users and healthcare providers can find a comprehensive directory of hospitals, doctors, health insurance and travel health insurance companies in India and the USA. We have a team of medical professionals, engineers and like-minded healthcare consumers to help our users find their coveted healthcare facilities. And, we are putting every effort to bring out unbiased testimonials and reviews, in order to cater to all healthcare related challenges issues or inquiries.
Do you think that you’re being able to succeed in your endeavour?
With a strong user base in the USA and India, especially Illinois, Delhi and Punjab, I cannot say that we haven’t succeeded. But, it’s just the beginning and we’ve a long way to go.
What are your future plans?
We are planning to expand and take our platform to different corners of the world, making HealthSoul synonym with “Online Healthcare Services”. However, that would take time. At present, we’re planning to cover Delhi and Punjab, India, entirely by the end of this year and eventually take it to other parts of the country.
What do you think about the future plans?
It’s booming and is here to stay. Today, we may leave their house without wallet, but never without the phone. If we look at the stats, it’s evident that more than the half the population consult the internet before taking any decision. And, almost 75% of the users look for online reviews to find a doctor their choice. With such impressive figures. It is quite clear that online healthcare industry will see new lights. Being a part of the industry, I just hope to make a healthy contribution.
