Ep #12: Building Patient-First Health Information with Roon's Vikram Bhaskaran

In this episode, MD+ Co-chair Arvind Rajan and outgoing co-chair Clara Sun chat with Vikram Bhaskaran, founder and CEO of Roon. They are building a patient-first health platform to replace “Dr. Google” with clear, compassionate medical guidance. Vikram shares how his caregiving experience shaped Roon’s mission, and how short-form video paired with trusted physician voices can scale knowledge while preserving empathy. We also discuss Roon’s AI approach, which draws only from expert-reviewed content, and why involving clinicians in digital health innovation is more important than ever.
