Doctor On Demand passes 1M virtual visits

Doctor On Demand, a national healthcare service delivered through telehealth technology, has passed one million video visits.

Doctor On Demand provides access to board-certified physicians, psychiatrists and licensed psychologists through video visits, as well as integrated lab services for an advanced range of telehealth services. Completed in just over four years, the accomplishment comes after Doctor On Demand’s $74 million Series C financing round. As the company continues to grow, it projects to reach two million visits by summer 2019.

Launched in December 2013, Doctor On Demand has seen triple-digit growth year-over-year and is known for its high-quality and cost-effective care. The service is accredited by the American Telemedicine Association (ATA), National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) and HITRUST. It is also the virtual care provider of four Fortune 10 companies and partners with more than two dozen health plans.

“Our mission is to improve the world’s health through compassionate care and innovation. We built Doctor On Demand four years ago to provide the easiest, most convenient access to some of the best care in the country,” Hill Ferguson, CEO of Doctor On Demand, said in a press release. “We look forward to continuing to expand our platform capabilities and shape the future of healthcare.”
