Digital healthcare provider Push Doctor has secured £13.7m in a Series C funding round to expand its support for the National Health Service during the coronavirus pandemic. The investment was led by European venture capital firm Draper Esprit, with participation from ADV. The new capital will be used to scale digital health infrastructure and meet surging demand for remote medical consultations across the UK health service.
The company has seen its patient reach double to 5.4 million since March through partnerships with primary care networks and clinical commissioning groups. Push Doctor also recently launched a partnership with Well Pharmacy to power a digital pharmacy first platform in Plymouth, alongside expanding its digital locum offering for hospitals and general practices.
