My Lab Box: a complete, personalized at-home, tele medicine health care testing solution for prevalent risk infections

In 2014, Ursula Hessenflow and Lora Ivanova shared a growing concern about the high cost and complexities surrounding health care in general and in particular the complex stigma around STD testing. With 1/3 of Americans living with Sexually Transmitted Diseases it became clear that the conventional health care solutions were not working. Riddled by inconvenience and discomfort of lab appointments and tests lead to many skipping their annual exam and relying on trust with new partners. From years of experience in Big e-commerce, high impact marketing and product management Lora and Ursula were intrigued by the possibility of finding a way to apply the same principles of ease, convenience and lower cost to something like healthcare and something as complex and stigmatized such as STD testing, this gave birth to My Lab Box. A pioneer telemedicine solution aimed at addressing all the problems of traditional health care testing and treatment solutions and the stigma of STD testing. My Lab box was developed to provide affordable, cost effective personalized care testing solutions for prevalent infection risks. These include Nutrition, Wellness, Fertility, Women’s Health and Sexual Health.
