About Us

What is BRINGO?

Founded in 2006, BRINGO is a health care technology company focused on helping people connect with quality, local health care professionals. We help people find qualified, experienced health care professionals in their local areas, quickly and efficiently. BRINGO helps make the right connections in the local health care marketplace.

We do our homework on the health care professionals in our network so our users don't have to. We work with leading healthcare providers and companies to ensure that all professionals in our network are fully licensed and in good standing with their local professional association. We then use our unique technology platform to match patients with these quality professionals, and connect them instantly via the telephone.

Our management and board combines strong health care experience with deep operating experience on the Internet and technology.
