# E-commerce development for the healthcare sector [5.0★★★★★15 Google reviews](https://g.page/r/CTKNsrjt6VWvEBM/review) ## Why a healthcare e-commerce store has its own specifics An [e-commerce store](https://coma.lv/en/services/e-commerce/) for healthcare and medical products has requirements that differ from an average online shop. Buyers expect precise information about product composition, usage instructions and origin, while pharmacies, opticians and medical-goods distributors often have to account for additional regulations on advertising and selling products online. When building an online store for this sector, we pay attention to several aspects: - **Clear product categorisation** — separate sections for prescription and over-the-counter goods, vitamins, medical devices or care products. - **Secure and fast checkout** — reliable payment providers and a clear, easy-to-follow ordering flow. - **Integration with inventory and accounting systems** — so product availability always matches real stock. - **Compliance with [accessibility requirements (WCAG/EAA)](https://coma.lv/en/services/wcag-audit-and-eaa-compliance/)** — which, since June 2025, are mandatory for e-commerce platforms selling products or services to consumers in the European Union. - **Multilingual support (LV/EN/RU)** — useful when your customer base reaches beyond the Baltic states. The development process usually starts with analysing the product catalogue and the customer journey — how buyers search for and choose products, what filters and search tools they need, and how to ensure the information about each product is complete and trustworthy. This is followed by the technical implementation — WordPress/WooCommerce or another suitable platform, a secure payment-provider connection and, if needed, integration with existing business systems or prescription-verification solutions. We work both on new projects and on rebuilding or modernising existing stores — for example, when the current platform does not meet accessibility requirements, is hard to manage day to day, or simply cannot keep up with a growing product range. After launch we also offer maintenance and support — adding products to the catalogue, security updates and performance monitoring, so the store keeps running smoothly even during high-load periods such as seasonal sales or campaigns. ## Our work in this sector [![Coma Cloud Logo](https://coma.lv/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/3.jpg)](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/lensfit-node-js/) ### [Lensfit node.js](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/lensfit-node-js/) Custom Node.js e-commerce platform for LensFit, replacing WooCommerce with a faster, more scalable store tailored to contact-lens shoppers.[![Dr.Klauns](https://coma.lv/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Dr.Klauns.jpg)](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/dr-klauns/) ### [Dr.Klauns](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/dr-klauns/) Website development for online shop Dr.Klauns[![Coma Cloud Logo](https://coma.lv/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/3.jpg)](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/lensfit/) ### [Lensfit](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/lensfit/) Modern, user-friendly e-commerce website for Lensfit.lv, a Latvian contact-lens retailer, with a clean catalogue and trustworthy shopping experience.[![Silvanols](https://coma.lv/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/silvanols_book_labots-1250x833-1.png)](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/silvanols/) ### [Silvanols](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/silvanols/) Website development for a pharmaceutical company Silvanols[![Adam&Eva](https://coma.lv/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/AdamEva-3-min.jpg)](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/adameva/) ### [Adam&Eva](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/adameva/) Website development for sexual wellness brand Adam&Eva[![Femarelle](https://coma.lv/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/cwd-project_photos-femarelle.jpg)](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/femarelle/) ### [Femarelle](https://coma.lv/en/portfolio-item/femarelle/) E-commerce website for Femarelle women's health products with a wide product range and easy checkout.

For a simple store with basic functionality — usually 4–6 weeks. More complex projects with custom integrations or a large product catalogue can take 2–3 months, depending on the number of products and the integrations required. ### Will the store meet accessibility (EAA/WCAG) requirements? Yes — during development we follow WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines, which since June 2025 are mandatory for e-commerce platforms in the EU. If needed, we can also audit the accessibility of an existing store. ### Can you integrate our existing inventory or accounting system? Yes, we can connect the store to your accounting or inventory-management solution so that product availability and prices update automatically. ### Do you build stores in several languages? Yes — we develop online stores in Latvian, English and Russian, which is useful if your customers are also outside Latvia. ### What happens after the store launches? We offer maintenance and support services — security updates, performance monitoring and help with adding products to the catalogue.
