Shenzhen Dushi Medical Limited By Share Co.,Ltd. was established in May 2010 and listed on the National Equities Exchange and Quotations (NEEQ) on January 23, 2017.

To date, Dushi Medical’s business operations have encompassed chain pharmacies, online pharmacies, pharmaceutical wholesale, internet hospitals, and the Expert Edition of the Dushi Medical Network APP.
Since 2015, Shenzhen Dushi Medical Limited By Share Co.,Ltd. has been developing its Family Doctor Platform (the Dushi Medical Network Expert Edition APP). To date, tens of thousands of doctors from across China have joined the platform, attracting hundreds of thousands of patient followers. Through the platform, physicians can manage patients, provide disease education, increase their income, practice independently, and enhance their professional brand. Patients can access health consultations, follow-up visits, medication guidance, and dedicated family doctor services via the platform.
It is reported that Shenzhen Dushi Medical Limited By Share Co.,Ltd. will enter into a strategic cooperation with Meinian Onehealth, a subsidiary of Tianyi Investment Group, to integrate their omni-channel resources and build a more comprehensive service ecosystem encompassing medical care, health checkups, pharmaceutical supply, and health management.
