Our project, Telemedicine_BOT, is a web-based chatbot designed to help users quickly find nearby hospitals, check the availability of doctors and emergency beds, and get health-related guidance. It is especially useful in rural areas where people often don’t have quick access to hospitals or doctor contact information during emergencies. The chatbot is powered by a smart backend using FastAPI, LangChain, Chainlit, and vector search with FAISS, making it responsive and intelligent in understanding user needs. Users just need a phone or computer with internet access to use it. This solution is designed by a team of software engineers working together to build a meaningful healthtech product. It not only saves critical time during emergencies but also reduces costs by avoiding unnecessary travel and wait times. In the future, we plan to add features like live video calls with doctors, image-based disease identification, and offline SMS alerts for low-internet areas. The project has strong real-world potential, especially in countries like Pakistan, where many communities still lack fast access to medical care. Our goal is to build a tool that can help save lives, improve healthcare reach, and create a reliable digital bridge between patients and hospitals.
