There is a shortage of doctors in Indonesia with only 0.4 doctors for every 1000 residents. This problem is further worsened by the fact that Indonesia is the largest archipelago in the world with more than 17,000 islands. Not everyone gets access to healthcare and Halodoc is determined to solve this problem!

Halodoc was founded in 2016 and their impact and growth has skyrocketed since. They now serve over 20 million patients in Indonesia every single month - that is almost 4x of Singapore's population!
