DocGo's SteadyMD Announces Immediate Expansion of Clinical Workforce to Meet Rising Demand for Branded GLP-1 Weight Loss Care
SteadyMD to Grow Clinical Staff by Up To 50% to Support Customer Base That Includes Multiple Fortune 10 Brands
DocGo Inc. (NASDAQ:DCGO) ("DocGo" or the "Company"), a leading provider of technology-enabled mobile health and medical transportation services, today announced that its virtual care division, SteadyMD, is undertaking an immediate expansion of its clinical workforce, with plans to increase clinical staff by up to 50% over the coming weeks. The hiring initiative is driven by accelerating demand from its customer roster of top consumer, healthcare, and digital wellness brands for clinician-led telehealth services supporting branded GLP-1 weight loss care.
SteadyMD is poised to continue its strong growth trajectory as demand for high-quality, compliant, and scalable virtual care models accelerates across the healthcare landscape. To support expanding partnerships and rising patient needs, the company has initiated urgent hiring of additional clinical staff, with onboarding expected to begin in the next several weeks.
"This hiring push underscores SteadyMD's commitment to building durable, high-quality telehealth programs that work for patients, partners, and clinicians alike," said Guy Friedman, Co-Founder of SteadyMD. "As more organizations look to trusted partners to support branded GLP-1 weight loss care, we are scaling thoughtfully—prioritizing experienced, multi-state licensed clinicians and reinforcing our clinician-first culture to ensure care remains consistent, compliant, and patient-centered."
Guided by its vision to serve as the backbone supporting modern healthcare, SteadyMD partners with leading healthcare organizations to deliver flexible, scalable, and clinically sound virtual care programs. The company's clinician-first approach emphasizes clinical, operational, and technical excellence, to help ensure patients receive consistent, high-quality care while clinicians are supported to practice at the top of their license. As part of this expansion, SteadyMD is prioritizing clinicians with five or more active state licenses to support nationwide care delivery and improved patient access.
"Demand for clinician-led virtual care continues to grow rapidly, particularly as our customers expand access to branded GLP-1 weight loss treatments at scale," said Lee Bienstock, Chief Executive Officer of DocGo. "SteadyMD's proven clinical model, national footprint, and ability to responsibly scale its workforce position DocGo to support this demand while maintaining the high standards of care our customers and patients expect. This expansion reflects our continued investment in platforms that deliver meaningful, sustainable growth."
Licensed clinicians seeking flexible virtual care opportunities are encouraged to explore current openings as SteadyMD continues to expand its nationwide clinical network.
