MyDocHub Adds Dentists to its Medical Search and Review Database

ORLANDO, Fla. --- MyDocHub, an Orlando web-based company that allows patients to anonymously review their physicians and the care they provide – has launched a new feature on its database that offers the same criticism and compliments for dentists.

In its third year, MyDocHub now reports more than 400,000 hits monthly from patients who either offer reviews of their doctors or use the posted criteria to select new health-care providers, according to Dafe Ojaide, chief executive officer.

Ojaide, a Nigeria native who started MyDocHub with Ning Yu, a computer science doctoral candidate at UCF, said dentist reviews was a natural addition.

“We added dentists since some people see their dentist more than their physician in a given year,” he said.

At MyDocHub.com patients review and rate their experiences at doctors’ and dentists’ offices based on punctuality, waiting times, and staff efficiency, Ojaide added.

The site also has a fast-doctor search engine with Google maps, an on-line appointment feature, health blog and other features geared towards consumer-generated healthcare.

MyDocHub is a University of Central Florida Business Incubation Program client company based at the Orlando location on E. Colonial Drive.
