Oasis Fertility has a very deep understanding of what our customer needs and the fact that Fertility treatment is a long term journey. The customer journey and engagement with the Centre is at least for about six months on average.

During this period the couples are supposed to visit the centre numerous times and spend time understanding the treatment protocols.

"Our contactless patient engagement begins even before the patient comes to our centre for the very first time, The patient is given access to self-register, check-in and will be given a virtual tour of the clinic so that the next time he/she walks in there is a familiarity which sets in, while he/she is meeting the fertility specialist for the first time, he/she gets the bio profile of the specialist on his/her WhatsApp so that he/she is fully aware of the doctor with whom he/she is consulting," said Dr Durga G Rao - Medical Director and Co-Founder of Oasis Fertility.

"In fertility treatment, it is very important for the aspiring IVF couples is to understand the treatment options available, the treatment milestones and compare their status against an expected journey. This intelligent tool enables the patients to receive highly personalized and specific communication at the exact touchpoints required. More importantly, this is achieved in the most widely used communication medium (WhatsApp). This contactless patient engagement is another key addition and perfectly complements our strong information technology platform of Oasis Fertility," added Kiran Gadela, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Oasis Fertility.
