A family business, for families like yours

Like having family in Vietnam.

We listen to your needs, book your doctor, and go to appointments with you, then call your family afterward to tell them how it went.

We started Waypoint because we were already doing this for our own parents. One of us managed appointments and hospital visits in Vietnam, and the other checked in anxiously from a screen thousands of miles away. We built the service we wished we'd had, so other families wouldn't have to figure it out alone the way we did.

Family-run, on the ground in Ho Chi Minh City

Co-founder

Trang Duong

Ex-Oracle, AI Software Engineer at Redfin, based in the US. Started Waypoint after years of watching my own parents navigate care back home from thousands of miles away, and wanting a better way to actually be involved.

Co-founder & Care Coordinator

Linh Duong

Background in administration and customer care, based in Vietnam. Already manages our own parents' appointments and hospital visits day to day. Waypoint grew out of doing this for our family first.

Why Waypoint

Care shouldn't be one person going to the doctor alone.

It should be a village — the coordinator in the room with you, and family who couldn't be there, still right beside you.

In the room with you
  • Public hospitals and independent clinics, with full translation support
  • An independent second opinion when your case calls for one
  • One coordinator who knows your history, across every provider you see
Beside you, wherever they are
  • A plain-English summary after every visit, sent straight to family abroad
  • Updates on what's changed — medications, follow-up timing, anything to watch for

Pricing

Simple for one visit. Managed for everything after.

A dedicated coordinator who knows your history, not a different desk at every hospital.

Pay as you go
Single visit — from $75

A coordinator meets your family member at the hospital, interprets throughout, and sends you a plain-English summary the same day.

For complex needs
Complex or ongoing conditions

For frequent appointments, surgery, or hospital stays, we build a plan around what's actually needed. Get in touch and we'll walk through it.

A one-time $125 setup fee covers collecting records, building a medication list, and taking a full history before the first visit. We're waiving it for our first 10 clients.

Most visits cost less in total than a single appointment at an international clinic — you pay the local hospital fee ($2–16) plus our coordination fee, instead of $65–217.

How it works

Three steps, every time

01. Intake

Tell us what's going on

We collect medical history, build a current medication list, and understand what you need — over WhatsApp, phone, or in person. This is what lets us walk into the first appointment already knowing the situation.

02. Matching

We find the right doctor for you

The right provider for what you actually need, not just the nearest one — and we handle the booking, including multi-provider days.

03. The visit & summary

We're with you the whole way

A coordinator meets your family member at the hospital, interprets throughout the appointment, and handles the paperwork. A plain-English summary follows the same day — to you, and to family abroad.

Get in touch

Tell us what you need help with

Most people reach out before an appointment they're dreading, not after. Either is fine.

What to expect
  • A coordinator reads every message personally — no call center, no queue
  • We'll follow up within 24 hours, usually over WhatsApp
  • You'll get a clear plan and pricing before anything is booked
