Doctoury in One Sentence

Doctoury is a free digital healthcare platform built for Iraq, connecting patients with verified doctors and trusted pharmacies, and coordinating treatment abroad, all inside a single mobile app. The tagline says it plainly: "The Healthcare You're Looking For, All in One Place."

Most people in Iraq still find a doctor the old way — a phone call to a relative, a name passed around a Facebook group, a walk-in with no idea whether the clinic is any good. Doctoury replaces that guesswork with a searchable, verified directory patients can trust.

ℹ️

In short: Doctoury is a free digital healthcare platform for Iraq that connects patients with verified doctors and trusted pharmacies, and coordinates treatment abroad in six countries, all through one mobile app. It covers 18 Iraqi governorates including Baghdad, Basra, and Mosul, and is free for patients to use.

What Doctoury Actually Does

Doctoury bundles four things patients normally juggle across different channels:

Doctor discovery and booking — search by specialty, city, or symptom and book an appointment directly in the app.
Pharmacy locating and prescription requests — find nearby pharmacies and send a prescription or medication request without a phone call.
Treatment abroad coordination — for conditions that need care outside Iraq, Doctoury coordinates options across six countries.
Health record and medication management — patients can store basic health information and set medication reminders so nothing gets missed between visits.

A lab-test booking feature with home sample pickup is in development, extending the same one-app model to diagnostics.
