WhichDoc is attempting to make it easier to find a competent and trustworthy doctor. Getting healthcare in the United States isn't easy, and it's complicated by the fact that finding a good physician can be a difficult task. WhichDoc uses the power of Facebook to help you find doctors that your friends and relatives really like.
On WhichDoc, you rate your doctors anonymously using such indicators as bedside manner. After rating your doctors, you can see the ratings your friends have given their doctors. Doctors can even be rated on a micro scale measuring things such as who gives the best physical. Everything is anonymous, so you never have to worry about someone finding out who your psychologist or dermatologist is. WhichDoc also keeps members updated on when they're due for check-ups and tests.
