Dr. Omar Sharif, President of Medi-Call Inc. stated: “This is an exciting stage for Medi-Call to be rolling out services. Since our inception, we have developed what I think is an unbelievably valuable healthcare tool in the med-tech space. Patients are lacking access to healthcare and Medi-Call will make a big difference in their lives. We have just added an amazing amount of support from Datametrex. It made sense to team up with them to roll out telemedicine services and locations in BC and eventually across Canada. The demand for digital health services has emerged as a powerful new industry and healthcare model for doctors like me in diagnosing patients promptly and efficiently.”
Marshall Gunter, CEO of the Company, stated: “We are thrilled with our partners and team to have been able to complete the acquisition of Medi-Call. The delivery of online medical consultations is a sector that is growing exponentially, in it we see continued growth, revenue and profit.”
