The Project

Medigo is a worldwide project. It grants people access to high-quality health care, by allowing them to search, coordinate and compare medical procedures with internationally trusted clinics. Medigo offers patients a wide range of medical services tailored to their specific needs, expectations, schedule, and budget—all without compromising on quality of care.

Medigo wanted a dynamic, powerful and user-friendly website that can be easily accessed from all devices. So, they needed a responsive design and a reliable platform that would return accurate and relevant results to the clients. In 2013, Medigo began its collaboration with Innobyte, and we were honoured to be the catalyst for this project.

The Solution

Services provided

  • Consulting services
  • Custom web development
  • Graphic design
  • Technical support

Medigo is the first medical-travel project developed from scratch with Symfony2. We chose this framework because its flexibility and scalability would adapt to Medigo’s needs and requirements. Symfony2 helped reduce the development time significantly – approximately 6 months stood between the first plan we drew and the launching of this platform.

After the launch, to improve the browsing experience, both for customers and administrators, our team performed a series of further developments and optimizations. We also used new tools, such as an advanced caching system for page loading time optimization, a payment system, custom-made language management system, and care plan integration.

We used several technologies to support the functionalities of this project: Solr, Redis, MySQL, Zendesk, and Varnish. Also, our team performed automated tests on the platform. It made updates and new functionalities available for the clients, in a remarkably shorter period.

Outcomes

By leveraging the Symfony2 framework, the development team successfully transformed Medigo from an initial concept into a launched platform in just six months. The project evolved into a world-class medical travel solution through strategic optimizations and a robust tech stack, including Redis, Solr, and Varnish.

Key Achievements

  • Rapid Development: Reduced time-to-market significantly through framework flexibility.
  • Scalable Infrastructure: Integrated advanced caching, custom language management, and automated testing to ensure a seamless user experience.
  • Global Impact: Scaled to support millions of patients accessing over 1,000 clinics worldwide.
  • Technical Excellence: Delivered a high-performance platform that remains a benchmark for innovation in the medical-travel industry.
