Builder of the U.S. direct-to-consumer telehealth category joins the physician-founded, surgeon-led marketplace as it scales nationwide direct-pay access

2026-06-23 08:31 ET - News Release

Advisor Appointment

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 23, 2026) - Apptly Health Technologies Corp. (CSE: APPT) (FSE: 4KL0) (the "Company" or "Apptly"), operator of the UberDoc direct-pay healthcare marketplace, is pleased to announce the appointment of Paul Johnson to its advisory board (the "Advisory Board"). Johnson co-founded Lemonaid Health, the first national direct-to-consumer telehealth service in the United States, and led it as Chief Executive Officer through its US$400 million sale to 23andMe in 2021.

Johnson built the model UberDoc now extends to specialty care. Lemonaid put primary care in the consumer's pocket. UberDoc connects patients directly to board-certified specialists at transparent prices, with no referrals, no insurance barriers, and no surprise bills. Johnson's addition deepens the Company's bench in consumer healthcare as it moves from a recent public listing into commercial scale.

"Paul did not just build a company, he built a category, and he did it by betting that patients are consumers the moment the system lets them be," said Dr. Paula M. Muto, Founder and Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a practicing vascular surgeon. "That is the same bet the Company is making for specialty care. Having Mr. Johnson advising us as we scale strengthens our ability to execute with guidance from someone who has already navigated this path successfully."

"Apptly is attacking the access problem from the specialist side, where the cost and the friction concentrate," said Paul Johnson. "A surgeon who still practices, who feels both the patient's frustration and the physician's, is exactly who should be building this. I am glad to help."

Johnson is a General Partner at Flex Capital, a CEO coach, and an active investor and director across digital health. Before founding Lemonaid, Johnson ran online operations for one of the United Kingdom's largest pharmacy groups. The appointment continues a deliberate strengthening of the Company's board and advisory bench, following the recent addition of John Dvor to the Board of Directors.
