It’s up! We just finished hellohealth.com and here’s what people are saying about it:

GOOD Magazine: “The platform is as straightforward to use as scheduling a trip to the Genius Bar on Apple.com.”

CNN: “We still see our doctor the same way our grandparents did. I think we’re about to see big changes in this area.”
