An English-language health companion for everyday phone users

Dr. Pom

A friendly virtual doctor who asks a few questions, explains things in plain words and tells you what is worth watching.

  • Plain language
  • No scare tactics
  • Reminders that stick

What Dr. Pom actually does

A symptom check that takes a minute

You tap what you feel, answer a handful of follow-up questions, and get a calm summary of what it could relate to and which signs mean it is time to see a real doctor.

Chat with Dr. Pom

Ask the thing you would be embarrassed to ask out loud. Dr. Pom answers in short sentences, without jargon, and says plainly when a question needs a clinician instead.

Medication reminders you will not swipe away

Set a course once — name, dose, times, how many days left. Dr. Pom nudges you, keeps a tick-list, and stops asking when the course is finished.

Symptoms tracked over time

Headaches, sleep, stomach, mood — logged in a tap and drawn as a simple timeline you can show someone instead of trying to remember when it started.

Tips that fit your week

Short, personal suggestions based on what you have been logging — not a generic wellness feed, and never more than you can read standing up.

How people describe it

★★★★★
I used to search a sore throat at midnight and end up frightened. Dr. Pom asked me four questions and told me calmly what to keep an eye on. That was the whole difference.
Maya
★★★★★
The reminders are the part I actually needed. I finished a course for the first time without my partner counting the box for me.
Tomas
★★★★☆
I logged my headaches for three weeks and showed the timeline at my appointment. Much easier than trying to remember dates in the room.
Priya
★★★★★
It talks like a person. No wall of terms, no ten-point article — just a couple of sentences and what to do next.
