A physician with no coding background built an AI patient check for her practice
A doctor turned a course exercise into a working AI assessment that helps women with chronic digestive symptoms feel heard before their first visit.
This physician runs a private medical practice and, four months ago, could not imagine building software herself. During the program, a simple landing page grew into a working digital patient experience. Her story shows how a real problem from your own work can become something you build with AI.
Gut Clarity Check
Before
Their patients often arrived after years of digestive symptoms, multiple tests and a great deal of uncertainty. They saw the gap but building a digital tool felt out of reach. Their first thought about ideas like this was that they would not know how to build them.
“Four months ago, I would never have imagined that I could build something like this myself – something that is not just a course exercise, but genuinely useful for my own medical practice.”
In their own words
The turning point
An early course project was a landing page for their gut-health program. The marketing and customer-journey lessons made them think differently about how a patient first meets their practice. From there, the idea for the Gut Clarity Check was born, and Claude became their main partner for strategy, medical logic, UX, copy and code.
“Instead of creating another medical questionnaire, I wanted to build an experience that makes patients feel heard and understood even before their first consultation.”
In their own words
After
They built a working web prototype with a patient journey, a questionnaire, symptom-pattern logic and a red-flag safety layer. They tested and refined it from both the patient and the physician side, then deployed it with Netlify. They now see it as a beginning, not an ending.
What it lets people do
Patients move through a structured assessment that spots symptom patterns and possible red flags, then receive a personal summary in plain language. They can save it as a formatted PDF and choose whether to share it with their physician, so they stay in control of their information.
What they learned
They learned that AI can be a thinking partner, designer, coder and critical reviewer across a whole product, not just a text generator. Most of all, the question in their head changed from whether they could build something to how they could build it with AI.
“Instead of thinking, “I wouldn’t know how to build that,” I have learned to ask, “How could I build this with AI?”
In their own words
Gut Clarity Check was built during AI Mastery.
