Can’t get approved as a healthcare provider

I am a healthcare provider and tried to get approved several times since 2023, mostly out of curiosity. I have never gotten a response. Tried to reset password to try again today and there is an error the app can’t connect to the network.

Review

If you read the other reviews, you will notice that those morons provide very little context. You have to be a medical professional in order for your account to be approved by Face2Gene team; however, the app still lets you upload/capture a photo and get a diagnose that may or may not be accurate during the “pending approval” period. The app does what it says it will do, so to give it a bad review is nonsensical. I gave it 3 stars because the app is outdated and it’s not something a medical professional would use to help diagnose a patient.

Enough of the medical elitism

People in the medical profession have long thought that patients are idiots. For the vast majority of us, we are completely capable of learning chemistry, anatomy, or pathology, but we didn’t have the financial privilege of that level of education. Give us the tools to educate and advocate for ourselves. Without research on the patient’s end, it takes years for doctors to diagnose, if ever. Make this app available to the masses. It could help patients get treatment sooner or potentially save lives. Power to the people!

Can you please make a separate app that does not teach the AI?

I understand why the developers do not want patients to teach the AI. However, this product holds so much promise for those who are on the disorder diagnose journey. I know It does not give a diagnosis. It does give a direction to the journey and something to use to talk to physicians.

Parents over Professionals

Such a wonderful app to exist, however it doesn’t do patients any good. I would be willing to bet that my daughter’s medical team would laugh me out of the office if I asked them to download an app to scan her face for a genetic diagnosis. If this app has any chance at becoming a benefit to the medical community it would be wise to allow parents to use it. We could then research the app’s suggested diagnosis prior to seeing the doctor and go into the next appointment ready to discuss our findings.
