I'm so happy for you!

There's a company that is not public but working in this space, I cannot recall it's name. They use NLP to diagnose patient condition by ingesting raw information/text from medical books/papers. You describe how you feel and any other information that you have in an article, and it gives out possible conditions and prescription.

AFAIK, they still recommended that you go to the doctor, but you could use it as an extra to check the diagnosis yourself.

But their point was they have all the data coming out in new papers, and the system studies it constantly and is always kept up.



What’s the company?
