BabyTech TOUCH Exhibitor Spotlight

From the Editor
DNP Dainippon Printing, Akachan Honpo and Papa Smile are collaborating to hold BabyTech TOUCH, an event where you can see and touch BabyTech products and services and find a partner for your childcare needs, from 10 June 2021. Of the approximately 20 products and services on display at this event, we would like to introduce in the form of an interview "Kids Doctor", an after-hours health consultation application for children provided by North Star Co.

What is 'Kids Doctor'?

Editor: What kind of app is "Kids Doctor"?

Northstar: Kids Doctor is a service that was created to provide mothers and fathers who are worried about their children's health with the peace of mind that they can easily consult a doctor or nurse.
For sudden illnesses of children during weekday evenings and holidays when hospitals are not open, the service offers "Chat Health Consultation" with a nurse, "Online Medical Examination" with a doctor on your smartphone, and "House Call" service where a doctor comes to your home.
*Medical services such as "Online medical treatment" and "House call" are provided by our partner medical institutions.

Support for health problems and concerns in childcare

Editor: It is reassuring to know that health advice is available out of hours, including at night.

North Star: In any age, parents are always concerned about their children's health. In addition, there are environmental concerns such as the risk of infection and the long wait to see a doctor, especially when visiting an emergency hospital at night or on weekends. At
Kids Doctor, we provide a point of contact where you can easily consult with a nurse via chat and online medical treatment by our partner doctors from the comfort of your own home using your smartphone. We believe that this reduces the mental and physical burden on parents and children, and also helps to prevent hospital-acquired infections in emergency hospitals.


Exhibition at BabyTech TOUCH. The video introducing the service is easy to understand and many mothers and fathers stop to watch it.

We want more families raising children to know about it.

Editor: We hear that you have a very good reputation with your clients.

Northstar: Kids Doctor has already received a very high level of satisfaction from our users. However, we believe that there is still a way to go before all parents in the world know about it.
The health of your child is a major concern for parents who are struggling to balance work and childcare. We hope you will use Kids Doctor to help you.

From the Editor
The BabyTech TOUCH event attracted many working mothers and fathers with children in preschool. They said, "I'm going to install an app so I can use it whenever I have a problem" and "I didn't know there was such a reliable app! I didn't know there was such a reliable app! It seems to be a good luck charm for them that they have it even if something happens.

Editor: We'd like to take this opportunity to encourage more people to install the app. Thank you very much for taking the time to answer our questions.

Kids' Doctor gets even more convenient. A child health platform that gives parents peace of mind

From 28 June 2021, the service will also start to collaborate with the "Call Doctor" night-time and holiday home visit service ( see reference article ), and will begin to provide home visit services in the Tokyo city area and Osaka area, expanding the service as a service that delivers peace of mind to parents.

The company will continue to work on improving the accuracy of online medical care and eliminating the time lag that occurs when prescriptions are delivered after online medical care.

We hope that this app will continue to develop as a safe app to have on your phone in case of emergencies.
