Patrick Dempsey Partners With CrowdMed To Help Solve Difficult Medical Cases

Crowd Med, an online crowd sourced medical diagnosis platform that helps solve even the world’s most difficult medical cases, has announced that actor Patrick Dempsey has made an investment in the company. Almost one in 10 Americans – and 350 million people globally – are affected by the approximately 7,000 different types of rare or difficult-to-diagnose medical conditions. With this investment, Dempsey is working with Crowd Med to help expand the platform and give an additional resource to those facing undiagnosed illnesses. “Crowd Med was designed to help people in need who have nowhere to turn, no options and no answers, which is the same reason I founded The Patrick Dempsey Cancer Center for Hope and Healing,” said Dempsey. “After meeting with several Silicon Valley healthcare startups, I was immediately drawn to Crowd Med’s mission of helping those who have run out of alternatives. I remember being overwhelmed when my mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer almost a decade ago, and I know how challenging it can be trying to make the best medical decisions for oneself or a loved one. The patients who are turning to Crowd Med can’t even begin to think about treatment options because they haven’t been able to find an accurate medical diagnosis yet – but hopefully we can change that.”
