Vezeeta.com introduces digital health solutions in Jordan

Vezeeta.com, the leading digital healthcare services provider in the Middle East launched its platform for medical bookings in Jordan, securing its position as the first medical booking platform in the Middle East and allowing patients in Jordan and the region to book appointments with Jordanian doctors online or through Mobile Application.

Through its electronic booking platform, Vezeeta.com facilitates online bookings by making it easy for patients to search for doctors and book appointments with the most suitable doctor depending on area, specialization, screening price. Most important is that patients can view other patients' assessments and opinions of their experience with the doctors which results in improved quality of healthcare and a new dynamic in bookings. Another important benefit of the platform is increasing the Kingdom’s medical tourism as the platform can be used from outside the Kingdom for booking with doctors in Jordan.

As the first specialized platform for medical bookings, Vezeeta.com represents a turning point in the field of medical care. It was founded in 2012 in Egypt and has a base of 4000 doctors, and an average of 80,000 reservations per month. Since it first began its services in Jordan, Vezeeta.com has subscribed over 400 outstanding doctors across all specialties and is looking to increase the number of doctors to about 700 during this year.

Vezeeta.com Chairman and Co-Founder, Amir Barsoum, said: "Through Vezeeta.com, we are making a quantum leap in the concept of healthcare in the Middle East and North Africa by creating a link between patients and physicians in an innovative way. We are looking forward to expanding our platform in the future to eventually reach an integrated market of services and medical bookings". The General Manager for the Levant and the Middle East, Mr. Rami Adwan added: "The choice of Jordan as a destination for the expansion of Vezeeta services was due to the existence of a strong private healthcare sector coupled with strong communications and informatics infrastructure in addition to the widespread use of computers and smart phones. Moreover, the Kingdom is one of the leading countries in the use of technology for transactions and services on a daily basis, which means that the Jordanian community will value the service".

Vezeeta.com platform aims to expand its services and business areas according to its integrated business plan to add new services, increase the number of participating doctors and monthly bookings, launch services in new markets, and expand into Arab countries including Lebanon and the Eastern Gulf countries including the United Arab Emirates Qatar and others.
