An alarming observation: endless waiting times

Bordeaux, a dynamic city and major regional healthcare center, is home to several renowned institutions for urology, including:

These establishments have competent urologists who are at the forefront of the latest medical advances. However, the demand is huge and resources are limited, resulting in long waiting lists. For an issue like erectile dysfunction, these delays can be detrimental, as they can have a significant impact on the patient's quality of life, self-confidence, and intimate relationships.

Kano.care: a fast and accessible solution

Faced with these difficulties in accessing healthcare, Kano.care offers an innovative alternative to physical consultations through an asynchronous teleconsultation service. The goal is clear: to relieve the burden on traditional medicine and provide patients with quick and efficient care, without the need for travel or excessive waiting.

How does the service work?

  1. Asynchronous consultation: The patient fills out an online medical questionnaire, which is then analyzed by a specialized doctor.
  2. Fast processing: If no serious underlying issue is detected, a prescription is issued in less than three hours.
  3. Video consultation if necessary: If the doctor suspects a more serious condition, a video conference consultation is offered to further investigate the diagnosis.
  4. Home delivery of treatments: Once the prescription is validated, the patient can receive their treatment directly at home, thus avoiding any additional inconvenience.

A concrete impact on the organization of care

Kano.care's offer has several advantages:

  • A reduction in face-to-face consultations: by handling the most common cases, Kano allows urologists to focus on patients requiring complex care.
  • Improving patients' quality of life: prompt care reduces anxiety and allows for a return to a fulfilling intimate life without months of waiting.
  • Increased accessibility: patients from rural or suburban areas, often disadvantaged by the geographical distribution of specialists, can benefit from quality service without having to travel.

A health model in line with current needs

The digitization of healthcare is an inevitable trend, and Kano.care is fully in line with this evolution. Thanks to its innovative approach, the platform addresses a dual challenge:

  • Shorten waiting times for common and disabling conditions.
  • Facilitate access to treatments and improve the patient care pathway.

Kano.care's offering is not a substitute for traditional urology but rather complements it by providing a pragmatic solution to an increasingly critical situation. In a context where patients struggle to get appointments and urologists are overwhelmed, this initiative delivers an effective response that meets the challenges of public health.

Key points to remember

By providing quick and confidential access to medical care for erectile dysfunction, Kano.care positions itself as a key player in the modernization of the healthcare system in Bordeaux. The platform helps to alleviate the pressure on hospital services and free up medical time for more complex cases. For patients, it's a solution that ensures fast, discreet, and tailored care to their needs, without waiting months to see a specialist. In a context of a shortage of urologists, Kano.care embodies a new way of conceiving access to healthcare, more streamlined and more efficient.
