The Medlanes app allows patients to book on-site appointments with doctors and communicate with them to solve queries post the visit. Manuel Alzuru has also successfully collaborated with various entrepreneurs on HealthCode, helping them enter the European market and gain funding.

Manuel Gonzalez Alzuru
Chief Marketing Officer, Medlanes
Berlin, Germany

Roles: Co-Creation, Mentoring

Our innovation journey: Medlanes is an app and website that offers two services: firstly, it allows individuals to book appointments with doctors who then visit their home, office, hotel or wherever they may be needed. It is currently available in 23 cities across Germany and will go international in the coming weeks. The visit is covered 100% by the main private and travel insurances in Germany. Secondly, Medlanes allows patients to ask questions via the app, send pictures and maintain an ongoing conversation with their doctor after the on-call visit.

Medlanes’ goal is to provide health services wherever you are, whenever you need it. We aim to become the number one healthcare provider in Europe within the next 5 years. We also look to apply machine learning, bots and new technologies to be able to provide healthcare services in a more efficient and cost-effective manner. Further, it interests us to explore how artificial intelligence and language recognition can be applied to health topics.

Our HealthCode journey: I have been consultant for new health marketplaces or e-commerce initiatives that want to enter the European market, thanks to the HealthCode.io app. I have been hired by small startups as an advisor for helping them gain funding from European VCs. I have also offered my knowledge in the marketing/technology domains where I have a deep understanding of mobile user acquisition, retention and the tools necessary for optimising and improving an app.

I am looking to help entrepreneurs with game-changing ideas in developing marketing strategies, creating, reviewing and optimising mobile concepts, helping them approach and receive funding from investors, and connect them with accelerators/incubators.
