PocDoc - leading the way in smartphone-based rapid testing for cardiovascular, metabolic and renal disease.
About us
PocDoc is a digital health platform developed with the vision of allowing anyone with a smartphone or tablet to test themselves for a range of major diseases or conditions via a fingerprick of blood, receive a full health assessment that puts those results in context and then be offered solutions to address any health-related issues that arise. The PocDoc platform has been designed to work with our proprietary, quantitative blood tests, which have been developed in-house and are focused on preventative disease areas (Cardiovascular Disease, Metabolic Disease and Renal Disease ). The platform can also integrate other existing rapid tests, digitise the results, and provide the same health assessment and follow-on care pathways. PocDoc successfully rolled out the PocDoc Healthy Heart Check, which focuses on cardiovascular disease in homes, communities, healthcare organisations and pharmacies across the United Kingdom. PocDoc's technology has been granted multiple patents worldwide and is set to be the first home testing diagnostic service to fully integrate with the NHS app. Featured in the BBC News, BBC Breakfast News, The Daily Mail, The Telegraph and The Guardian. PocDoc has won 3 Innovate UK awards and MedTech Breakthrough award for its technology.

These changes include: 🟣 Increasing your physical activity, with the NHS recommending at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity 2 or more days a week. 🟣 Eating a balanced diet low in saturated fats and high in unsaturated fats and whole grains 🟣 No smoking and limiting your alcohol intake can also help to lower your LDL “bad” cholesterol levels, reducing your risk of a heart attack or stroke. 🩺 In addition to these tips, monitoring your cholesterol levels is a great way to ensure that you levels are within the recommended range. The PocDoc Healthy Heart Check provides you with your complete cholesterol profile compared to NHS recommended guidelines. 🧑⚕️ It will also give you the option to get advice from a clinician to help you understand your results better. 🔗 To learn more about your heart health this National Cholesterol Month read our new blog here: https://lnkd.in/eB3rxE2E
