Why Shifaam’s Health App Has Become A Necessity During The COVID-19 Pandemic

Our main objective here at Shifaam is to make healthcare facilities accessible for everyone by providing remote access to doctors and patients throughout Pakistan. Virtual clinics allow patients to continue getting their routine medical checkups and other healthcare related matters taken care of by licensed healthcare specialists via video call to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Shifaam’s Health App allows you and your family members to stay home and access the healthcare assistance you need. You can easily access the following healthcare facilities using Shifaam’s platform from the comfort of your home:

Instant Appointment Bookings

Leaving home is not recommended unless it is absolutely unavoidable (i.e. for a medical emergency or to get food). Our online appointment booking feature makes booking a doctor’s appointment as simple as a few taps on your smartphone. You can effortlessly browse through our list of specialists, and book an appointment at a time that suits you. The online appointment feature lets you book a consultation with your doctor for both, their physical clinic or virtual clinics.

Free COVID-19 Consultations

With hospitals and clinics overburdened, most of us are unable to go see a doctor for a simple consultation. Understanding the necessity for online consultations amidst this crisis, many doctors from our community of talented healthcare professionals have graciously volunteered to offer free virtual consultations on Shifaam. Free consultations allow you to consult with a doctor or therapist via video call completely free of charge. You can choose your preferred doctor and consultation time, and book your appointment online for free. You’ll be connected to your doctor via video call at the time of your appointment.

Please note that although these consultations are free of cost, they are only available with selected doctors on specific days and times.

Lab Tests from Home

Certain types of lab tests can easily be ordered from the comfort of your home. These are tests where a lab technician can come to your house for the sample collection (e.g.blood, urine, stool, or swab). Shifaam connects you to all diagnostic and laboratory facilities available in your area, so that you can easily order lab tests online. You can simply choose the lab and test of your choice (urgent infectious disease tests, normal diagnostic tests, or a prescribed test) and a lab technician will come to you for the sample collection. Results are shared with you once ready.
