What the team at Factually Health says.

From the start, the Factually Health team was looking for a partner they could rely on — a team that could understand their mission, move fast, and still take care of the details. What stood out to them was clear planning, fast communication, no team switching, and the feeling of working with real people.

What makes Cieden the BEST healthcare design partner?

Success story: a wellness platform redesign.

A growing wellness platform came to us with a clear mission – to bring better health services to more people.

Their MVP was already in motion, but some key parts still felt manual and time-consuming. Onboarding took too long and the support team spent hours answering the same questions.

We worked across all sides of the product – trainer, admin, and end user – to turn manual steps into automated flows. That included redesigning the trainer registration process and building a centralized analytics dashboard.

Even support got easier: we introduced a semi-automated refund system that helped cut down tickets by half.

Numbers that came out of good design.

MVP for united healthcare data application

MVP for united healthcare data application

The client had a bold idea: bring scattered medical data into one platform where patients could access, organize, and actually make use of it. They came to us to shape that vision, starting with a discovery phase, followed by UX/UI design and a clickable prototype to showcase the concept to investors. We put together a small team — a design director and a UX/UI designer — to lead the project.

Telehealth platform

Telehealth platform

We designed a telehealth app that lets patients skip the waiting room and start a virtual visit from any device. Clinics can offer video, text, or in-person appointments — all managed through one flexible platform. The system supports multiple clinic profiles, five user roles (from guest to site admin), and works across web and mobile. It’s fully GDPR and HIPAA compliant, with end-to-end encryption and multilingual support.

135% NPS growth through smarter health app design

135% NPS growth through smarter health app design

We helped Lykon redesign their health app to feel more flexible and personal, without overwhelming users or their dev team. The product combines DNA and blood analysis with personalized nutrition, but early flows felt rigid. We reworked the onboarding, health reports, and meal planning experience. The result: fewer support tickets and a 135% NPS boost.

Fast-track design for massage app

Sidekick needed a mobile app that could match the quality of their recovery tools: easy to use mid-workout and ready fast. We designed an intuitive experience that lets athletes connect their massage devices, customize sessions, and get straight into guided recovery. The timeline was tight, so we kept things lean: wireframes, testing, final UI — all built for real use in real-world conditions.

FAQ

How much healthcare experience do you have?

We've designed 40+ products across cardiology, mental health, fitness, nutrition, and more. From patient apps to provider dashboards, we’ve likely done something similar and we’re quick learners when it’s something new.

Do you design for both professionals and patients?

Yes. For professionals, it’s speed, clarity, precision. For patients, it’s confidence, ease, and access. Different users, different goals — our job is to make both feel right.

Can I hire just one designer to join our team?

Absolutely. If you need someone embedded full-time or part-time, we offer team extension. You’ll get a senior healthcare designer who’s collaborative, fast, and easy to work with.

How fast can we start?

Usually within 1–2 weeks. Sometimes sooner, depending on availability. We don’t overbook. If we commit, we’re all in.

Can you work with our dev team?

Of course. We collaborate closely with in-house and external teams, handing off annotated designs with everything devs need to implement fast and well.
