DoctorxDentist culls at least 9,700 doctors' names from its platform
Web site's general manager says it will be more stringent about transparency
Singapore
DOCTORXDENTIST, a medical-review and consumer-education Web site, has removed the profiles of at least 9,700 doctors after regulatory and industry bodies criticised the startup and said they may take legal action.
Checks by The Business Times as at 4pm on Tuesday found that the site now lists about 300 doctors. BT understands that this is still not the final number of doctors who will be listed on the platform, given that the startup is still revamping its directory.
