The DrOwl app is a free platform that enables users to securely access, understand and share their medical records. Users sync their medical information to DrOwl and get a customized Patient Portal with information about their specific conditions, medications and allergies.
Medical records are often presented in clinical terms, which can be confusing for patients. DrOwl provides a custom searchable portal that includes information curated by medical professionals and customized for the user, in easy-to-understand language, the company said.
