Company mission

Ampersand Health's mission is to create innovative digital medicines for long term inflammatory conditions, using behavioural and data science.

Our take

Interest in mobile health from patients, healthcare providers and carers has never been greater. These digital alternatives extend the patient-consultant experience beyond the hospital walls to dramatically improve patient experience.

Ampersand Health has launched a series of apps, My Arthritis Care and My IBD Care, designed to empower people suffering from inflammatory conditions, unlike traditional treatments in the form of drugs and medicines.

Patients are now able to access all the crucial data needed to efficiently treat and monitor their condition in one hub. The apps use mindfulness, exercise and planning techniques to help improve stress levels, sleep quality, diet and fitness.

At the same time, doctors and consultants, who are directly connected to their patient profile via the app, receive a more accurate view of their patient’s health and progress remotely, allowing them to reduce the number of unnecessary appointments.
