Built by a clinic, for its community.
Afyatel comes out of a working clinic in Kasarani, and out of a simple observation: most of the distance between people and good care is logistics.
Care should reach people where they are.
A patient with a fever should not lose half a day to find out whether it is malaria. Someone managing blood pressure should not have to queue every month for the same prescription. A daughter should be able to arrange a nurse for her father from wherever she works.
Afyatel puts the pieces in one place: licensed providers you can check, consultations by chat or in person, pharmacies that deliver to a pin, laboratories that come to collect, and a health record that stays with you.
The name starts with afya, the Swahili word for health.

Three rules we build by.
Verified, or not listed
No provider appears to patients until their licence or permit has been checked against the regulator.
Private by default
Health data is handled under the Data Protection Act, 2019. It is never sold and never used for advertising.
Honest about limits
Afyatel connects you with independent professionals. It does not diagnose, and it is not an emergency service.
