Organization
Gene Clinic (Family Medicine Practice, Dubai, UAE)
Scale
12 Doctors | 3,000 Active Families | 8,500+ Patients
Challenge
Family-based hereditary diseases difficult to track. Patients didn’t share family health history. Preventive care underutilized. Missed opportunities to identify at-risk family members early.
Solution Implemented
- Doccure with Family Tree diagnostic module
- Family account management (one account, multiple members)
- AI vital sign analysis correlated with family history
- Hereditary disease risk scoring
- Dependent management (parents manage children, adults manage elderly parents)
- Preventive care reminders based on family risk
Implementation Timeline
- Month 1: Family Tree module customization
- Month 2: Patient migration (existing families consolidated into family accounts)
- Month 3: AI risk scoring calibration
- Month 4: Launch with genetic counseling service
- Ongoing: Expansion to corporate wellness packages
Results (After 18 Months)
- 78% family account adoption — Most patients now manage 2-4 family members
- 92% accuracy in hereditary disease prediction — AI correlates family history with current vitals
- Early intervention in 200+ cases — At-risk family members screened before symptom onset
- 45 family members identified at-risk for conditions they didn’t know they were susceptible to (hypertension, diabetes, certain cancers)
- Preventive care adoption up 60%— Patients act on family-risk-based recommendations
- Patient lifetime value increased 45% — Families stay with clinic for generations
- Revenue from corporate wellness: ₹25 lakh/quarter (companies want family health programs)
Clinical Example
Patient A (45-year-old male) consults for routine check-up. His father and grandfather both had heart attacks in their 50s. AI face scanning shows elevated blood pressure and poor HRV. Family Tree module flags him as high-risk. Doctor orders cardiac workup. Results show early coronary artery disease. Started on preventive medications and lifestyle changes. Likely prevented heart attack 5-10 years later.
Patient Testimonial
“Gene Clinic’s family health approach is brilliant. I manage health for myself, my wife, and our two kids from one app. When the doctor noticed my son’s blood pressure was slightly high and I have hypertension, they immediately started monitoring him closely. He’s only 16, but early intervention means he won’t end up like me needing multiple medications at 40.” — Ahmed K., Patient
