Lazoi initiates its services to Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Pune

Lazoi Lifecare Private Limited, one of the leading healthcare portals in India today, proudly announces the instigation of its services in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Pune. The portal, which is best known for connecting patients to doctors, booking online diagnostic lab tests and medicines, the company off-late, has been on the expansion mode. Having already established itself in the heart of India (Delhi/NCR), the famous online portal is looking to help patients get the benefits of its services in core cities of Maharashtra. This has not only broadened the company’s area of operation but also the association of more doctors with it.

Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Pune are counted amongst posh cities of Maharashtra, where it is difficult to find the right doctor when someone in your family, relation or loved one falls sick. As per the Maharashtra Government, diseases such as cholera, small pox, high fever, dengue, dysentery, diarrhoea, respiratory problems, malaria are common in these cities. Sadly, number of deaths due to these conditions is also high. One of the factors behind these deaths, as stated by the state government is inability to connect patients with the right doctor. Hence, when patients fail to receive the proper treatment, it ultimately pushes them towards death. Specialists like paediatricians, gynaecologists, pulmonologists, dermatologists etc. are in demand in these high profile cities.  

Citing this very reason, Mr. Suvro Ghosh, founder of Lazoi, turned his focus on these cities. He made it a point that no patient shall be denied the right to appropriate treatment. So when he decided to start services in these cities, it was given a thumbs-up from the government. He further said, “While we have 50,000 + reputed doctors from Delhi/NCR at our portal, addition of few more from these cities will only bolster the business. Plus, patients will be more than happy to book online appointments rather than running here and there to get the right treatment.”

In the last 5 years, there has been a surge in patients looking for doctors who provide online appointment. In short, they are more internet-savvy now. Seeing this trend, a number of healthcare portals have come up in recent years. While some have tasted success (like Lazoi), others have gone down with the wind. Though, it’s a reality that in India where doctor-patient ratio is 1:2000, finding the right doctor is like chewing iron nails. What healthcare portals like Lazoi has done and off course doing is bridging the gap between doctors and patients. Expanding the current range of services to core cities in India is obviously best for business, plus it guarantees that no patient is deprived of quality medical services.
