Company mission
Salvo Health’s mission is to radically increase access to the best of advanced, specialty healthcare for anyone living with chronic conditions.
Our take
The gut plays a vital role in the human body, and its complexity makes unique gastrointestinal problems common. Whilst consistent and meticulous analysis can uncover the roots of gut problems, it can be difficult for people to access such consistent help when doctors offer such short sessions and with such long waiting lists.
Salvo Health provides a virtual clinic for chronic gut conditions, allowing patients to gain unlimited access to a team of gut-health specialists. Through its mobile app, the company allows users to receive diagnoses, prescriptions, and contextualized plan adjustments from the experts, in addition to unlimited message communication and advanced health diagnostics.
While specialized Medtech applications have been developed for diabetes, obesity, cigarette addiction, and other health problems, Salvo Health has found a gap in the market with gut health. Whilst it will face challenges from potential competitors wising up to the niche, the company shows great potential to stand out due to its dedicated team of gut-health experts, customer service tools, and advanced analytic offerings.
