Hey there

I'm Dr.Poorna

I'm Poornachandra Vivekananda, a medical graduate who's really into healthcare tech. Currently working at Medblocks taking care of Product and Growth while building the future of healhcare interoperability.

Previously I've built and led a Web consultancy agency and explored all the web technologies - from AWS to NextJS and Kubernetes. Also was the first employee of a startup called Coverself. If you have anything interesting in healthcare I could work on, you can drop me an email at [email protected].

If you want to know what I have done before and what I can do - you can checkout my LinkedIn, Github or Twitter.
