HCMUT Alumni in Top 30 under 30

At the age of 19, this HCMUT young man started his own business project on social events. The project failed. He then turned the idea into a business model of Personal Doctor System (PDS) with the perspective that the project does not only make his profit but does also positively affect the society. HELP International, the first “Personal Doctor – Home Healthcare Service” model, was co-founded by Tuan Ta in 2009.
He shared with us that the business idea stemmed from his father’s cancer suffering. “It urged me to get known much deeper; it’s not just a “sickness” of a patient, but a “sickness” of nation’s healthcare system. The “Personal Doctor – Home Healthcare Service” model would help each inhabitant taken cared by a personal doctor with the most rational price to protect their health and to lessen the treatment fee in long term if they have health problems”.
On the other hand, standing in front of the overload public health system, money-consuming, time-consuming, not to mention that the probabilities of being cross – infectious among the patients, Tuan Ta has a desire of building a standby medical system to support people with similar problems.
