Face2Gene for Android

Such a wonderful app to exist, however it doesn’t do patients any good. I would be willing to bet that my daughter’s medical team would laugh me out of the office if I asked them to download an app to scan her face for a genetic diagnosis. If this app has any chance at becoming a benefit to the medical community it would be wise to allow parents to use it. We could then research the app’s suggested diagnosis prior to seeing the doctor and go into the next appointment ready to discuss our findings.

Not everyone in America can afford to see a doctor to get permission to use an app. Of course nobody is going to diagnose themselves with just an app. But if it helps confirm a suspicion, it can help them to seek care without dozens of doctor’s appointments. I have a rare genetic condition that was misdiagnosed for 20 years and had I had something that could’ve given me an idea of what to ask my doctor, I wouldn’t be disabled now.

A a parent with a special needs child I was interested to see if this would actually be helpful, and provide the correct syndrome but this app is how old and still not available to the public….. shame !!!! Parents also to countless hours of research on helping their children and if your app truly worked a parent could also point a doctor in a direction they haven’t gone down.

Can’t enter any information to sign up. Would be nice if that part worked considering it’s such an important part of the app.

Parents desperately need to be able to use this app! We search for years for answers as to why our children have medical issues/disabilities/need physical and occupational therapy! We only see a geneticist once a year who might do one or two tests with no answers! We need this app to be able to take to our genetics drs to help them help us get answers!!! Please open it up to parents!!!!
