BBMI - Case study
Overview
Beyondbmi is an innovative healthcare services provider that offers sustainable weight loss through a medically led comprehensive program involving doctors, dietitians, and health coaches. In order to provide this service to their customers, Beyondbmi developed a custom digital platform that provides program access to their users, including electronic health records, and with access by the medical professionals to interact with their patients efficiently.
BoatyardX partnered with Beyondbmi to deliver an enhanced user experience and drive growth in their existing user base. The mobile app would allow users to access the digital platform from the comfort of their homes, making it accessible to even those in remote locations or with limited mobility.
