Healthcare Web App Development
Healthcare Web App Developmentwith React and Next.js.
Secure, accessible web platforms for healthcare and regulated industries. Built in React, Next.js and TypeScript by a senior developer who treats security, privacy and WCAG compliance as requirements, not afterthoughts.
- Healthcare platform experience
- Security and privacy by design
- WCAG 2.2 AA accessible
Healthcare software has no easy mode
A consumer app can ship rough edges and fix them later. Healthcare software cannot. The constraints are real and the cost of getting them wrong is measured in trust, liability and patient outcomes.
Security and privacy risk
Health data is among the most sensitive there is. Weak access control, sloppy data handling or missing audit trails are not just bugs, they are liabilities with regulatory and reputational consequences.
Accessibility is mandatory
Healthcare serves everyone, including users with disabilities, and the European Accessibility Act now makes accessibility a legal requirement. An inaccessible portal excludes patients and exposes the organisation to penalties.
Integration and legacy weight
Healthcare platforms rarely stand alone. They connect to other systems, carry years of legacy decisions and cannot afford downtime, so every change has to be careful and reversible.
Who I work with
I work with organisations for whom correctness, security and accessibility are not negotiable.
- A health-tech startup building its first serious platform
- A healthcare provider modernising a patient-facing portal
- A medical or wellness product that needs to pass accessibility requirements
- An enterprise health team adding senior React and Next.js capacity
- A platform that needs a security and accessibility hardening pass
- An organisation that inherited a healthcare codebase and needs it stabilised
What I deliver
Secure architecture
Least-privilege access, encryption in transit and at rest, careful handling of personal and health data, and audit logging designed alongside your compliance stakeholders.
Accessible, WCAG-compliant UI
Interfaces built to WCAG 2.2 AA from the start, mapping cleanly to EAA and ADA expectations, so accessibility is structural rather than a costly retrofit.
Platform build and features
Production React and Next.js platforms and features, built for maintainability so your team can own and extend them with confidence.
Integration and hardening
Connecting to the systems healthcare platforms depend on, and tightening the security and accessibility of what you already run.
How an engagement works
Discovery
We map the requirements: the data, the users, the regulatory framework and the systems you integrate with.
Scope and plan
I propose the smallest useful first step, a build, a feature or a hardening pass, with a clear plan and timeline.
Build with safeguards
I ship in reviewable increments with security and accessibility checks built into the workflow, not left to the end.
Verify and support
We verify against the requirements that matter, accessibility and security included, and agree on ongoing support if you need it.
Case Study
A WCAG-compliant rebuild in healthcare
I rebuilt CeHDI, a global health diplomacy organisation, after a developer left it unfinished and failing dozens of WCAG criteria. I rebuilt the structural layer in a single sprint, reaching a clean pass on Lighthouse, axe DevTools and WAVE - one set of fixes covering EAA and ADA at once. Alongside it I build and maintain Flowrence, a healthcare platform on Next.js.Read the full technical breakdown →
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes healthcare web apps different to build?
Healthcare software carries constraints most products do not: sensitive personal data, accessibility obligations, audit trails and a low tolerance for downtime or error. The engineering has to treat security, privacy and accessibility as first-class requirements from the first commit, not as a later pass.
Do you handle accessibility and WCAG compliance?
Yes. Accessibility is built in, not bolted on. I build to WCAG 2.2 AA, which also maps to the European Accessibility Act and ADA expectations. If you need a formal review of an existing product, I also run dedicated WCAG audits.
How do you handle sensitive health data and security?
I design for least-privilege access, encrypted data in transit and at rest, careful handling of personally identifiable and health information, and clear audit logging. I work with your compliance and security stakeholders so the implementation matches the regulatory framework you operate under.
Can you work with our existing healthcare platform?
Yes. A lot of healthcare work is improving and extending an existing system rather than starting fresh: adding features, hardening security, fixing accessibility and integrating with other systems. I can join an existing codebase and team and contribute from the first week.
Do you have real healthcare experience?
Yes. I build and maintain Flowrence, a healthcare platform on Next.js and TypeScript, and I rebuilt CeHDI, a global health diplomacy organisation, to full WCAG compliance. Healthcare and regulated, accessibility-sensitive work is a core part of what I do.
What does an engagement look like?
It can be a full build, a defined feature, a security and accessibility hardening pass, or ongoing senior capacity on your platform. We start with a call to scope the smallest useful first step, then expand from there.
