MeMD Diagnosis Map Microservice

MeMD is a mobile App that allows a user to self diagnosis medical conditions and find the closest specialists. After a user is given a diagnosis they receive an email with their results as well as a list of providers in their area who take the user's insurance, and a map of the US showing the distribution of MeMD users with the same diagnosis.
