An oncology consultation and patient advice platform being built for Afghanistan. A shared path for health professionals to exchange guidance, and for patients and families to ask where to turn next.
Our purpose
Cancer care can involve many questions. Good connections can help those questions reach the right people.
DOST is designed to bring professional knowledge and patient direction into one coordinated space, connecting health professionals in Afghanistan with approved colleagues in the Afghan diaspora.
The purpose is simple: support professional consultation, make approved knowledge easier to access, and create a structured way for people to seek oncology-related advice.
Different paths, one purpose
DOST has two distinct pathways, shaped around the people who use them.
