Putting Patients First: How Dokport is Shaping the Future of Digital Healthcare

7 Oct 2025 · News, Update · health, health data, healthcare, MyData Matters

In the MyData Matters blog series, MyData members introduce innovative solutions that align with MyData principles, emphasising ethical data practices, user and business empowerment, and privacy.


At Dokport, our journey began with a simple observation: it is far too difficult for people to access care when they need it most. Across Europe and beyond, citizens face long waiting times, crowded services, and high costs. The result is that many patients struggle to see a doctor exactly at the moment when timely care could make the biggest difference.

Other industries have embraced technology to transform accessibility, speed, and user experience. Yet healthcare has been left behind. We knew a better solution was possible, one where patients come first. That is why we created Dokport, a low-cost digital doctor service that removes queues and ensures that everyone can access medical support quickly and easily, regardless of their financial situation or where they live. The name Dokport comes from the words Doctor and Port. Dokport can be understood as a gateway to a doctor’s consultation, like a digital door to healthcare.

Our vision: Modern healthcare belongs to everyone

Healthcare should never be a privilege. It is a right. At Dokport, we are rethinking the way care is delivered by combining medical expertise with digital innovation. By leveraging secure, user-friendly technologies, we aim to make healthcare accessible to all while saving people, companies, and society both time and money.

Our mission is not just about providing remote consultations. It is about building digital trust and ensuring that people feel safe, respected, and empowered when they share their health data. It is about patient empowerment, giving individuals the ability to take control of their health journey. And it is about cross-border healthcare because care should not stop at national borders, especially in a digital era.

Why now?

The need for accessible healthcare is greater than ever. Populations are aging, chronic conditions are rising, and traditional healthcare systems are under pressure. At the same time, digitalisation has reached a tipping point. The tools exist to change the way care is delivered—making it more personal, more efficient, and more equitable.

This change is happening right now. Remote healthcare is going global, and we are among the first to turn this possibility into practice. Our role in the MyData community is to ensure that as we scale digital care, we do so responsibly respecting individual rights and empowering citizens through trustworthy data use.

Looking ahead

We are only at the beginning of our journey. But we believe in a future where every person, regardless of location or income, can access the care they need. A future where healthcare is inclusive, efficient, and designed around the patient.
At Dokport, we are proud to contribute to the MyData community and to share our vision for patient empowerment and digital trust in healthcare. We warmly invite citizens, companies and policymakers alike to join us in building this better future. Modern healthcare belongs to everyone.
