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 π. I wonder how much this place charges insurance companies for their ‘procedures’
Pure Genius
Job Killer
my self and my lovely husband was able to eliminate our deadly virus hiv with the help of DR AJAKAJA on YouTube. may God continue to protect you sir. you can get in touch with him on his YouTube channel.
You misspelled "garbage medical office".
All that you see there is utterly bogus and gimmicky. This is what a desperate attempt to sell entertainment wrapped in sensationlism looks like. Nothing there is for health nor will it bring about health. It centers around profound amounts of artifical lighting and microwave RF technology that is well established to detrimental to health. Ironically, the guy doing the sales pitch is obviously obese and even has gynecomastia and his apprearance speaks nothing of health.
HEYYY CAN YOU SMILE A BIT GUUUUURRRLLLL ?!! SHOW HIM SOME KINDNESS !!!!!!
Like its "Reeealllly kinda" this and "Reeeeeaaaallly kinda" that. You sure it’s not just the figurative bubble you’re in?
it looks so pretty, modern and high-tech, where’s the catch?
I love this concept, but this lady always seems to have such a negative/poor attitude.
This looks great. Hope they add some genetic scanning.
I’m creeped out, and I don’t want to slide my two fingers into anything.
and proper educated nurses don’t ever "poke around" β that’s all kind of ridiculous
A virtual doctors office that takes virtual payments. Genius. Your preventative health care is provided free of charge. LOVE IT.
The right idea of making healthcare more efficient but a TERRIBLE execution.
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.
Vaccines? Fuck that shit eliminate that please , i was interested until you mentioned that word. Vaccination is not a healthy thing for humans sorry
Very advance
Pretty costly for preventive medicine. Don’t understand how that’s gonna work out without actual treatment facilities.
never will i go to something like this.
Where’s the A.I.?
Where are u located
@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 ππΌ
This is the dumbest idea ever. Our current system sucks but this is NOT comprehensive healthcare and certainly not worth $150/month on TOP of your federally mandated insurance coverage. No, I don’t need a bodyscan. Yes I do need a traditional clinical setting with actual exam rooms and nurses. I have a 20 year relationship with a physician I trust. Can you replicate THAT? No. Someone else said it- a fitbit or an Apple Watch does half of these tests. And you don’t think your doctor is interested in helping you with preventative care? PLEASE for the love of god stop sending me these fucking ads. What a waste of money- both the idea and the marketing effort. This company should be called "backward". UGH

Hope they add some genetic scanning
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. Whatβs your data breach response plan? Also…. this A.I will eliminate many healthcare workers jobs… Have you considered the impact?
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.
Cool that it is free
This guy reminds me of Jared from the subway ads.
Somebody has to try something to improve the healthcare experience I’m just not sure this is it but at least their trying

Is this my future? π’ππ»π€©

The last thing I want to touch at a doctor’s office is a touchscreen.
let’s see how forward they are with the coronavirus? How do i stop getting their ads on my youtube
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.
