Vezeeta

Vezeeta is an Egyptian online medical care scheduling service, providing a free of charge medical search platform for end users by integrating information about medical practices and doctors' individual schedules in a central location. The company is based in Cairo, with offices in Amman, Beirut, Dubai and Riyadh.

Business model

Vezeeta provides a scheduling system on a paid subscription basis for medical personnel. The scheduling system can be accessed by subscribers both as an online service and via the deployed office calendar software, or integrated with their websites. The subscriber's schedules are available to the patients.

The end user-searchable database includes specialties, range of services, office locations, photographs, personnel educational background and user-submitted reviews. Users can review doctors' schedules and make appointments for specific time slots.

Availability

The service was initially launched in 2011 as a way to schedule ambulances.[1] Initially limited to Cairo, it expanded to cover 15% of MENA population across 8 cities, and is used by more than 2,000,000 people per month. The service may be used as Android iOS, or web application, as well as supporting Arabic and English language versions with the launch of Vezeeta en français soon. The service is now available in 4 MENA countries, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and KSA.

As of September 2018, the company had raised over $22.5 million in venture capital from investors.[2]
