MyTabib.com, a global healthcare search platform and comparison site, has been launched to link patients from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region to specialist doctors and clinics around the world. The platform enables users to search for health practitioners by location and medical speciality to find world-class doctors and hospitals, as well as communicate, compare, read reviews and testimonials, share their own experiences, and book appointments and consultations. MyTabib.com currently lists over 1,800 doctors at 635 hospitals and clinics in 16 countries in the Middle East, Europe, Asia and the USA, with more being added daily. Dmitry Yakhlakov, CEO of MyTabib.com, said: “Our main objective is to provide quality medical assistance for MENA patients, both locally and worldwide. It can be very difficult to choose the right doctor or clinic that is 1,000 miles away, which is why we decided to create a portal where patients can find information about the best clinics in the world, compare prices and read reviews.” The Dubai-based platform can be used to find local doctors and medical services, as well as assisting medical tourists seeking treatment abroad. Healthcare providers listed on MyTabib.com are able to share information relevant to patient decision-making, answer their questions and counsel patients before they travel abroad. “Medical tourists can access MyTabib.com from anywhere at any time to consult with doctors, know their prices, the right procedures and book an appointment effortlessly,” Mr Yakhlakov explained. “The website’s aim is to help those who want to find a better clinic for better care.” Patients can also see full information about the hospital, get a consultation and book an appointment right away. The website promotes simple interaction, allowing patients to provide service feedback, a scoring system and overview of the clinic to help other patients get the most experienced medical provider. The creative and technical team at MyTabib.com is constantly working on added features, modern design, user-friendliness and easier navigation using the latest web technologies.
