TELMED AI DOCTOR

Telmed AI Doctor is an AI-powered telemedicine platform built to close Africa's healthcare access crisis. Nigeria has only 0.4 doctors per 1,000 people. Millions suffer from treatable conditions simply because qualified medical guidance is out of reach. Telmed deploys AI as the first line of medical response — available 24/7, on any device, at zero cost to the patient. Users interact via text, voice, or image. They describe symptoms naturally or photograph affected areas and receive a structured clinical interpretation, severity classification — Low, Moderate, or Urgent — a personalised medication schedule, and clear escalation triggers for when a human doctor is immediately required. The AI engine runs on a multi-model cross-validation architecture. Google Gemini handles primary diagnostic reasoning while DeepSeek independently validates the same input — eliminating hallucination risk on clinical outputs. Google Cloud Vision powers image-based symptom analysis. Google Places connects users to the nearest verified pharmacy. Built on Node.js and Express.js with a vanilla JavaScript frontend optimised for low-bandwidth African mobile networks. Recognised as a Top 100 project out of 3,000+ submissions at the lablab.ai AI Agent Olympics Hackathon, May 2026. Telmed is not a product. It is infrastructure. The kind Africa should have built a decade ago.
