Directory
The directory of clinicians that build software
Doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other clinically trained people who do not just use software; they ship it. Every entry is verified: a real clinician, a real, personally built artefact.
Curated from a continuously running monitoring pipeline across Reddit, X, LinkedIn and the health-tech press. Updated three times a week, automatically.
54 verified clinician-builders. Evidence tags reflect how thoroughly the shipped work could be independently confirmed.
