Curelink | WhatsApp Rebuilt For Caregivers

Founded in 2021 by IIT-Roorkee graduates Aman Singla and Divyansh Jain, Curelink helps caregivers (like Doctors, Nutritionists, Dieticians, Fitness Experts, Wellness Coaches, Yoga Instructors, etc.) leverage WhatsApp to connect with their patients for regular health and wellness-centred interactions. 

Through virtual care teams, Curelink helps caregivers provide condition-specific advice on diet plans, exercise regimens and more detailed handling of patient queries for diabetes, thyroid issues, pregnancy, etc.

Commenting on the development, Aman Singla, Curelink’s founder, said,

“Today, 200 Mn people have diseases such as hypertension, PCOS and diabetes. Many of these people, especially older ones, do not spend much time on the internet and are unlikely to download a separate app to manage their health issues. They are, however, comfortable using WhatsApp to communicate with familiar medical professionals.”

As per the Gurugram based-healthtech startup, about 90% of out-of-clinic interactions in the healthcare industry happen on WhatsApp. Curelink intends to reinvent chronic care management for people in Tier 2 cities and beyond. 

The Gurugram based-healthtech startup is currently active in Gurugram and Bhopal, with plans to expand in the Delhi NCR region and experiment in cities like Jaipur and Lucknow by the end of 2022.
