Advancells – making stem cell therapy affordable

Transfiguring the face of medicine, Advancells was established in the year 2013. Delving in the field of stem cell therapies, the company has been futuristically conceptualist to further modern medicine.
Advancells is headquartered in Noida and has representative offices in Bangladesh and Australia. Breaking the stereotype regarding stem cell companies that most often offer arrangements for stem cell banking, this is one of the few organisations in the country that focuses the therapeutic usage of stem cells for a variety of life threatening and life style diseases.
Advancells also works on writing protocols for partner doctors and hospitals which they can use for treating the patients using regenerative medicine . Advancells is a GMP compliant research and processing center that works on different cell lines from various sources such as Bone Marrow, Adipose Tissue, Dental Pulp, Blood, Cord Tissue etc.

 
PharmEasy

PharmEasy not only helps patients and their care-takers connect with the local medicine shops but also offers free sample collection service for diagnostic tests by authorised phlebotomists.
The startup claims to ensure that medicines are delivered within six hours of prescription validation by a licensed pharmacist. The app also has an in-built dosage reminder for users. Further, in case a patient does not have a prescription, the PharmEasy team connects with him/ her and provides a valid prescription. The firm has tied up with nearly 700 doctors across India.

Practo

What started in 2007 as a SaaS platform for doctors has, over the past 10 years, evolved into a one-stop destination for appointments, consultations, health records, insurance, and ordering medicines online.

With over 1,00,000 doctors supporting the massive scale of operations, Practo currently caters to 25 million patients every year.

Blood Pressure (My Heart) 
This one helps keep your blood pressure in check and deal with hypertension. One can use the app to store and analyze blood pressure measurements. It also generates ancillary information which can be directly sent to the doctor via auto-generated reports.
However, don’t make the mistake of believing that the app can measure your blood pressure. You’ll still need the pressure gauge for that.

Founded by Saurabh Arora and Rahul Narang in 2013, Lybrate helps patients communicate with a network of doctors, while keeping their anonymity intact.
