About Us
ShipMedCare was founded in 2015 by Dr. Periclis Tzardis, General Surgeon with over 25 years of experience in the field. Prior to the company’s establishment, numerous seafarers have reached out to him with medical issues while on board, seeking medical advice and consultation. This need of medical assistance at sea inspired him to establish the company with the vision to bring the service of medical teleconsultation closer to crews on board and Shipping Companies.
