MihanPezeshk
What really got him in the center of everyone’s attention is the startup on which he’s currently working called MihanPezeshk. He started working on this startup as an already experienced entrepreneur. MihanPezeshk is an online platform on which people can easily find a doctor and book their appointment. Any medical organization or doctor can sign up and make their own page that will provide the users with the most important information such as the address, phone number, working hours, and a short description of their services.
Not only that, but doctors have an option to add photos and videos of their workplace. Also, doctors can offer online consultations and book appointments using the online platform.
