Personalized health care refers to the delivery of health care based on the uniqueness of the client receiving the care. Care is customized to the client rather than the traditional clinician-centred or disease-focused medical model of care (Han, 2016).

“It’s far more important to know what person the disease has than what disease the person has.”  Hippocrates of Cos (c. 460 BC – c. 370 BC) (Murugan, 2015).
