Midwest ER Doctor, Dr. Segun Ishmael noticed the rise of STD’s and the fear individuals have when having to get tested or treatment and launched the app, Be Safe Meds, which allows clients to get a diagnosis and treatment for STD’s. The new web-based app provides the service of choosing one’s STD symptoms they may be experiencing, and speaking to a medical professional- doctor or nurse on the phone who will then prescribe a medication to the nearest pharmacy. This is a new innovative way for individuals to obtain treatment for STD’s and avoid embarrassment of going into a doctor to get checked.  

“This health issue is continuing to grow and spread because of the fear individuals have in getting tested. I started Be Safe Meds because I noticed a trend that people are not getting treatment for STD’s due to embarrassment. This app is a new way for individuals to get treatment effectively by a medical professional and with technology taking over the health industry, I think this is the beginning of a turning point in healthcare,” said Dr. Segun Ishmael.
