“Ever since we formed in 2014, we have believed that digital tools will pave the way for better patient / doctor interactions and we are starting to see the reality of this now.

Visiba Care is currently working with health providers in a number of regions and we are looking to grow quickly across the rest of the UK. This appointment will support our ambitious growth plans and will be the first of many over the coming months.
