Case Study – Doktor.De

About Doktor.De

The subsidiary of the Swedish company Doktor.se is launching a completely new healthcare concept in Germany. It combines a digital patient journey with existing physical structures. On the one hand, it offers a telemedicine service via its own Doktor.De app. On the other hand, it operates GP practices in order to digitize them and thus help doctors to ensure medical care in the future.
