Been getting ads for this technology for years. One guy that's in the ad's, is very accessible to listen to it makes a great pitchman. Very cool technology and format to the medical world lol
A virtual doctors office that takes virtual payments. Genius. Your preventative health care is provided free of charge. LOVE IT.
$140 a month fee. The f*** are you talking about?
It’s called sarcasm. It’s perverse speech.
I'm creeped out, and I don't want to slide my two fingers into anything.
I’m new to this service and it has been nothing but amazing
Getting scammed lmaoo
@@Will-xl7xp whatever you say. The people are awesome and the service is great
How is this data collected and stored, and used? Who will have access? What about 3rd parties? Will you share or sell this data with life insurance companies? The same questions apply to the app. What’s your data breach response plan? Also.... this A.I will eliminate many healthcare workers jobs... Have you considered the impact?
You already know the answer to all of that my friend.
your data about calories and blood type is really important for us the rest of the world because you are the center of the universe, keep taking care of you immensely valuable data from us.
Can you use this service with a Android phone?
Pretty costly for preventive medicine. Don't understand how that's gonna work out without actual treatment facilities.
wow. this is 6 years ago? just now saw it on a YT ad. i really hope they are moving forward with this. we needed this yesterday. this is where the billionaires need to provide grants to.
I love this concept, but this lady always seems to have such a negative/poor attitude.
This. The bitch ruined the experience.
This guy reminds me of Jared from the subway ads.
Ouch...lol
never will i go to something like this.
This place terrifies me. the ads keep telling me every day to come to their office because they're down the street ( they actually are, local ads feel creepy coming from a medical provider) and I don't know who they are and they aren't covered by my plan...
Preventative care is very very limited scope of practice, like immunizations, mammograms, birth control, testing screening... things you can get from a pharmacy or planned parenthood GNC or walk in minute clinic.... If you're symptomatic this place isn't going to be cheap and they aren't going to be covered by your plan.
it looks so pretty, modern and high-tech, where's the catch?
Somebody has to try something to improve the healthcare experience I'm just not sure this is it but at least their trying
Al
let's see how forward they are with the coronavirus? How do i stop getting their ads on my youtube
This
This, again.
The last thing I want to touch at a doctor's office is a touchscreen.
@Matthew McCartney ooo thx. 🤦♀️
Devoted (Extended mix)
Wow this is so inspiring I want to become a G.P but from my experiences with being in a doctors surgery aren't possitive its always very slow and its just uncongortable if i could do something like this well the concept not the execution, that would be a dream come true but i would do lots of study's first so that i can find out what people hate the most about going to the doctors and change it.
But to be honest o thought the video seemed a bit to good to be true and all the drugs at the front desk are theirs and they arent giving you the things you need they are giving you the things they want you to have and i think for elderly patients as well and the iPads and apps. I don't think that would be good for them i asked my gran and she said she likes talking to people at the doctors surgery because other times she gets lonely and if you take the interaction away and its not face to face it just doesn't feel the same but there are ways around it i guess
Preventative primary care. That is a euphemism for "we charge you a fee to tell you what is wrong with you and then you're on your own"
Just another example of the dubious nature of the tech industry.
There is nothing dubios about this. Why shouldn't they get paid for making it easy and convenient ? Not everyone has health insurance and not everyone likes waiting for appointments to see a doctor. A quick walk-in screening is very appealing to busy people or those whom are impatient. Furthermore, no hidden fees so you know what you will be paying upfront without surprises.
You know what is dubious ?
Paying $ 1000 per pill that cost $ .10 cents to make.
@@mediastreamview9528 this is preventative primary care, they don't treat any illnesses. They're charging money to tell you what is wrong with you and then good luck. That's not going to affect the price of the$1,000 pill one iota. You are paying a $153 a month membership fee just for them to tell you what is wrong with you and not treat anything.
People cannot possibly be this stupid.
I audit Medical cases on a federal level right now, been a clinician for more then 10 years and you are right.
But we still would need health insurance for injuries and illness ?not sure I understand exactly where this fits in…
Pure Genius
You misspelled "garbage medical office".
and proper educated nurses don't ever "poke around" - that's all kind of ridiculous
Where are u located
Like its "Reeealllly kinda" this and "Reeeeeaaaallly kinda" that. You sure it's not just the figurative bubble you're in?
TheAnubite why do people complain about everything. They build all this and yet that’s all you notice?
me trying to get to a bill gates interview talkong about his relationship with epstein: 🙊
forward advertising: "🙋♂️hey guys welcome to forward"
Use only ultra white lighting at a doctor office.
Where's the A.I.?
That is AI
Still in kindergarten...
As a doctor, this vitals machine will be more stress than its worth. Who cleans those pulseoximeters? How often. And those vein finders are nonsense! Patients will think they are high tech, but anyone who has used them knows they are useless in contrast to experience or ultrasound.
This looks great. Hope they add some genetic scanning.
🤡🤦♀️🤢
The right idea of making healthcare more efficient but a TERRIBLE execution.
Nice comment, failure to explain makes it more legit.
5 years later and these guys are still advertising, which tells you this business is that absolute failure.
HEYYY CAN YOU SMILE A BIT GUUUUURRRLLLL ?!! SHOW HIM SOME KINDNESS !!!!!!
What an awesome service! They show you pretty pictures instead of just reading numbers off a sheet of paper! I'm so glad they added a graphical interface to numbers from tests that basically any doctor can do (some pharmacies will even do some of this for you)... I'm being sarcastic by the way.
@TechCrunch Towards the end of the video, that glass casing shelf with the gadgets they send you home with, the White Ball thingy, I've seen it before. You put it by your bed, right? I forgot the name of it. The Bird Nest? Or something? Please reply TC, or anyone in the comments, if you know what it's called. Thanks 👍🏼
It's called "Sense" by Hello
Hope they add some genetic scanning
Is this my future? 😢🙏🏻🤩
Um, the genetic scanning comes from 23 and me. So I guess that fills the gap. But again, why is this such a great service if the founder in this video is a bit porky? If this were my company and I wanted investors to get their money back, I might consider loosing a few Big Mac's off my waistline. Anyone remember Theranos? Deja Vu.
Thinking the same
Cool that it is free
It isn't. It is a monthly subscription of $149. Whenever you see a tech startup mentioning the word "free"... You know right off the bat they're full of s***.
Swing and a miss.
Sooo basically everything that my Apple Watch does?
Does your Apple watch take your blood?
@@andrewDaMack give it a few years
Very advance
A service for hypochondriacs and gen z
really? are we taking one on one personal care away from people? not only that but you are going to be leaving so so many people without work . I've been in the medical field for 18 years and people love the one on one relationships with their doctors office. This really sucks
1984
what do you mean?
A physician in lifestyle medicine does everything all these overpriced machines do. If a patient has initiative they can get every benefit this place offers with their primary care physician. All fluff. Save your 149 a month, buy an apple watch and show your doctor the trends next time 😆. I wonder how much this place charges insurance companies for their 'procedures'
There are no medical procedures. Just overpriced technology and fancy minimalist decor. It's stupid.
So happy to see your comment. Because you described precisely what this is: start up fluffery sprinkled with a bunch of tech pixie dust on it.
