The MedReport Foundation is dedicated to advancing global medical literacy by delivering accessible health information that empowers individuals to make informed decisions and fosters a collective commitment to excellence in public health.
Our Story
The MedReport Foundation was founded by Tristan Jafari, Shubham Bansal, and Alex Elbahr, three undergraduates at the University of Washington in Seattle, after learning about the impact of the global health literacy crisis. Combining their interests in public health, education and medicine, they decided to develop a platform to help empower people to take control of their well-being and make informed decisions about their health.

Health Literacy Is a Critical Global Issue
Initially, the founders used MedReport as a private blog to share concepts they learned about with friends and family. But quickly, other students, scientists, and healthcare providers asked to contribute their knowledge. MedReport quickly gained traction, growing from a whiteboard concept sketch to a recognized non-profit organization with thousands of writers and readers from around the world.
