Due to the language barrier between doctors and their patients, many aspects of the anamnesis are overlooked
We live in an era of digital technologies when the Internet, computers and mobile devices are widely used in everyday life and in all spheres of human activity, including medicine.
As for our team, we were faced with the task of creating a mobile application (online pharmacy app development solution) that would help a doctor to easily accept foreign patients.
Since the application is to be used during patient examination, it was critical for us to provide simultaneous translation as well as quick search in a medical reference book in all available languages (over 20 different languages).
Client/Target audience
Potential users of the application are doctors who accept foreign patients and experience certain difficulties in communicating in their native language. In the future, this software solution can be implemented at the level of medical centers, by default to all doctors who work there.
Product overview
Product overview
We have built a mobile application for doctors with which they can interact with patients without any language restrictions. To make this interaction as simple and fast as possible (this is very important since communication with patients is conducted in real time), we have integrated the functions of voice search, alphabet search, and image search.
The created solution significantly reduces the duration of communication with patients, allowing doctors to examine even more people during their working day. Thus, the prospects for implementing this application are endless.

Our approach
Our team has created two native versions of the application - for the Android platform and for the iOS platform. In order to implement this service, we have selected the following tools:
Django
This is a Python-based framework for developing web applications with which we created the backend
React JS
This is a JS library for creating user interfaces, we used it for frontend development
Swift
Swift is a powerful and intuitive programming language for iOS. Swift code is safe by design, yet also produces software that runs lightning-fast.
Kotlin
Is a cross-platform, statically typed, general-purpose programming language with type inference.
Testing
We paid special attention to testing the usability of the solution so that its interface has a minimal learning curve.

Solution overview
In fact, this is a product for those professionals who prioritize the patient's health, strive to optimize the time of their professional duties and professional development, and also want to apply innovations in their medical practice.
Our team has created an application that allows you to facilitate communication between a doctor and a patient who communicate in different languages. The application has excellent optimization, which allows you to run it on any device.
- Сreated a multilingual user interface - the application supports more than 20 languages (English, French, Russian, Spanish, etc.);
- Provided support for two languages at once: User language (doctor's speech) and Assisted language (patient's language);
- Prepared and linked illustrations with terms;
- Prepared a list of 70 most popular questions for patients (“What is your age?”, “Where does it hurt?”, etc.);
- Created a 10-point scale for patients, where they can determine the level of pain;
Features for doctors and patients:
- Provided information caching, due to the constant expansion of the database;
- Integrated a database that contains more than 3 thousand specialized medical terms, divided into chapters (each term is translated into all 20 languages);
- We took care of the intuitiveness of the interface, making it as user-friendly as possible;
- For a more detailed examination, we created several sections, where there are also ready-made thematic questions (for this, the doctor must select a section, indicate a question and speak it - independently or through text to speech);

FAQ
How do medical applications affect the healthcare system?
Applications for public and private clinics are gaining more and more popularity. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine applications have become a necessity, so the demand for digitalization of medical services has begun to grow. Cloud data accounting, telemedicine, statistics collection and optimization of doctors' work - all this became possible thanks to medical applications.
What should be considered when creating a medical app?
First you need to decide for what purposes you need the application and what functions it should perform. Will it be an IoT application for patient monitoring, or should it be a handy pocket CRM system? Analyze the market and fill the gaps in this industry with your product. For example, the Tip Doc application from Owlab has made communication between a doctor and a foreign patient several times easier! In any case, you'd better turn to a professional Software Development Company like Owlab, who already have over 10 years of experience in developing software for various purposes.
What are the types of medical applications?
- Fitness & Lifestyle Maintenance Apps
- Remote Patient Monitoring Applications (RPM Apps)
- Preventive Care Apps
- Chronic Disease Monitoring Apps
- Medicine Delivery and Reminder Apps
- Mental Health Apps
- Pharmacy Apps
- Telemedicine Applications
How much does it cost to develop a medical application?
The price of developing an application may vary depending on the complexity of the functions implemented in it. It can be an advanced bot, which will be cheaper to develop, or a full-fledged application, which requires much more resources. You can write to us for an accurate cost estimate for your project.
Chatbot Development for private clinics - is it worth it?
Chatbots significantly reduce the workload on staff and make the clinic’s service much better. Advanced AI chatbots can even in some cases completely replace people by asking the client about symptoms and immediately enter all the information into the clinic's CRM system. Developing chatbots for clinics is a really great investment.
Medical application as a startup
There are many directions for development in this industry. From apps that automate processes and reduce the burden on doctors, to apps that can literally save lives. Owlab will help you develop a medical application, as the healthcare industry is constantly in need of innovation.
