Doctor Anywhere (DA) announced a USD 40.8 million Series C1 extension round with participating investors including Square Peg and Novo Holdings.
The influx of funds will be directed to strategically drive next-generation healthcare innovation within the company and to deepen its presence in secondary care.
The company is set to intensify efforts on product innovation in building a vertically integrated digital healthcare ecosystem. This ecosystem will cater to the rising demand for comprehensive and connected healthcare solutions that prioritise patient experiences and outcomes.
Amid a global funding downturn, the raise is a testament to the company’s robust performance and business model. The company’s significant growth momentum has been fuelled by rapid customer acquisition, continuous product innovation, regional expansion efforts, and its recent acquisition of a specialist healthcare group, Asian Healthcare Specialists.
These milestones have established DA as a key player in the healthcare sector, positioning the company to shape the future of healthcare in the region.
Tushar Roy, Partner at Square Peg, noted, “Our continued investment underscores our strong conviction in DA’s growth trajectory and its emergence as the dominant digital health platform across South East Asia.”
“We’ve successfully built a regional digital healthcare ecosystem, delivering accessible and convenient healthcare services through digital innovation. In the next phase of Southeast Asia’s healthcare evolution, our goal is to empower individuals to take charge of their health and well-being with early detection and preventive measures against chronic illnesses. We’re excited about the possibilities that Generative AI offers to advance this further,” said Lim Wai Mun, Founder & CEO, Doctor Anywhere.
Dr. Amit Kakar, Senior Partner, Head of Novo Holdings Asia, stated, “Our investment in Doctor Anywhere reflects our commitment to fostering personalised and intuitive healthcare experiences that result in better health outcomes. We firmly support the Company’s vision to deliver patient-centric care through innovative technology.”
