Vezeeta

Vezeeta is a Cairo-founded digital healthcare platform that began in 2012 and has grown to become a leading health-tech provider across the Middle East and Africa. It enables patients to search, compare, and book appointments with doctors, order medications online, schedule home lab tests, and conduct teleconsultations across countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Jordan, Lebanon, Nigeria, and Kenya.

The platform operates on a freemium model for patients and offers subscription-based software for healthcare providers. It includes tools like practice management software, automated reminders, analytics, and patient reviews to improve decision-making and clinic operations.

By 2022, Vezeeta had served over 10 million patients in more than 80 cities, with a vast network of healthcare providers. The company raised $40 million in a Series D funding round in 2020 and secured additional funding after reaching profitability.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Vezeeta expanded its telehealth services and launched a digital pharmacy service offering prescriptions, auto-refills, digital payments, and pharmacist support. It continues to grow as a unified digital health platform, reshaping patient engagement and healthcare delivery in the region.
