BACKGROUND[edit]
Docquity was founded in Singapore by Indranil Roychowdhury, Abhishek Wadhwa and Amit Vithal in 2015. The idea behind the establishment of Docquity lies due to the suffering that Indranil Roychowdhury experienced when his father had cardiac arrest. The unfortunate event occurred in 2011 when Indranil's father experienced rapid drop in blood pressure and chest pain and rushed to the hospital. A senior doctor confirms the issue as heart attack and he only had few hours to live. As we all know doctors doesn't easily give up. A twist happened, another doctor was tasked to look after the patient and the doctor made a call to one of his college classmates in US to take an advice. After garnering the advice he asked the nurse to pump immediately 400 milligrams of cardarone into the dying patient. After this life saving phone call Indranil's father spent 90 days in ICU and now he is fit and healthy. In order to bridge the gap between the doctors in different part of the world Docquity was born and still serving today.
