knok

knok is a Portuguese telemedicine service that connects patients with doctors through video consultations and in-person home visits. The website lists conditions handled this way, including urinary infections, tonsillitis, flu and cold, cough, back pain, and prescription or chronic medication renewals.

Patients book an appointment on the website, choose a doctor, select a time, and pay online by card. The site says patients can rate doctors and return to the same doctor. The stated target users are individuals and families, including parents booking care for children and relatives who find it hard to travel to a clinic.

The website cites over 84,000 online prescriptions sent and treated-case counts from 5,000 to 40,000 for individual conditions, with resolution rates of 92% to 98%. Open roles include physicians for telemedicine, home visits and psychiatry, nurses, clinical physiology technicians, regulatory affairs, data engineering and machine learning, and business operations. Listed locations include Lisbon, Porto, Matosinhos, Aveiro, Azambuja and Penafiel, plus nationwide remote roles. The website does not state a founding year or headquarters.
