You Are a Person, Not a Patient!


 

Andrea Macdonald, founder of ideaXme, interviews Kim Guest, the co-founder of Isoshealth, a secure online video platform that “makes it easy to connect Registered dietitians, Physiotherapists and Psychologists with new and current clients to help them get fit, well, healthy and happy”.

Kim is in favour of a holistic approach to health and would like patients to be viewed as people, treated as “humans”, not labeled in accordance with their health conditions or wellness challenges.

She is a digital healthcare pioneer who believes in personalized medicine and wants to empower people to manage their health by providing them with a tailored team of health and wellness professionals who communicate with each other to optimize people’s wellbeing.

“I want Isoshealth to treat people as human beings with individual needs. I don’t want to offer a short term solution. I want to focus on the bigger picture, people’s overall health and how one condition impacts another. To do this everyone needs to be communicating, that is all the people managing an individuals’ health.” – Kim Guest.
