Healthcare API launched to give users faster results when seeking a Doctor Washington, DC — June 23, 2009 — Latina Style Magazine, the premier magazine addressing the needs of established Latinas & Women entrepreneurs in the U.S has partnered with Doctor.com. In September of 2008, Latina Style Magazine in connection with iWeev launched the Latina Style Health Care website (http://www.health.latinastyle.com) to become the leading health information provider for the professional Latina. Because Latina professionals dedicate much of their time to their careers and families the website is committed to creating tools that will help readers better manage their health care needs and the health care needs of their families. The Latina Style Health care website also features a segment called “Latinas in Healthcare: Addressing Disparity”, highlighting Latinas that are making a difference in their field of study. “We hope to bring light to an important topic in our community as disparity by ethnicity is believed to result from complex interactions among genetic variations, environmental factors, and specific health behaviors” said Martita Mestey, Owner of iWeev. The partnership with Doctor.com, which was pioneered and managed by iWeev, a website offering the most comprehensive multicultural online solutions, connecting like-minded organizations to work together on concrete actions that expand their access and knowledge potential, will give LATINA Style subscribers a remarkably easy-to-use physician directory that lets consumers quickly find a doctor or other health care professional. Doctor.com's proprietary database includes detailed profiles for more than a million physicians, dentists, nurses, chiropractors, therapists, alternative medicine practitioners and other health professionals. Users can search the directory to find providers who match criteria such as medical specialty, health insurance affiliation, board certification, gender, etc. Recently the company launched the first nationwide doctor search API, allowing any approved website to easily integrate Doctor.com’s comprehensive search capabilities at no cost. “We’re very excited to have Latina Style Health as one of our first API partners,” said Andrei Zimiles, General Manager of Doctor.com, “iWeev did a fantastic job with the integration and we’re confident that the Latina Style community will find our embedded doctor search features to be of value.”
