FinTech Startup, Uyppy Analytica has today launched an application called My House Doctor (MHD) to assist  people during the lockdown period.
This innovation means a medical doctor is now just a tap away with the easy, fast and convenient MHD application.

The app also has a fully functional house call service enabling the doctor to come to your door. This function has however been disabled for the launch until the COVID 19 lockdown has lapsed. mectizan pharmacie
The service connects doctors and patients alike in real time, and reduces wait times for access to GP’s, for patients who would typically be queuing in clinics, hospitals or waiting for an appointment in doctors rooms.
“ We engaged extensively with doctors locally when we introduced the service and during initial testing”, said Ponciano Makombore, Director of Innovation at Uyppy Analytica.
MHD offers great convenience to its customers. It is even more beneficial for the elderly, children and those too weak to travel.
The launch of this service in Zimbabwe is the result of a collaboration between a consortium of doctors in Zimbabwe and Uyppy Analytica, a fintech and digital technology services company, bringing the My House Doctor technology platform, and the voucher payment solution to Zimbabwe.
This service was presented to the Medical and Dental Practitioners Council of Zimbabwe in January 2020 and was given a thumbs up.
 “We are excited to bring this innovative solution to support governments’ efforts in the delivery of health care to Zimbabwe” said Ndarukwa, a member of the consortium of Doctors, driving the rollout.
