Now more than ever, consumers are searching online for healthcare information and want 24/7 access to medical providers, according to a recent Intuit Health survey. In response to this growing trend, Doctors Express Englewood (DEE) today announced a new mobile appointment setting feature through a partnership with free consumer healthcare app iTriage®.

“The mobile appointment setting feature provides people with the resources to better manage their health by offering them more control and convenience when accessing our urgent care services,” said Dr. Robert P. Schiermeyer of DEE. “Our partnership with iTriage lets us quickly connect with patients when they have an immediate medical need.”

    Look up medical symptoms and conditions
