DR. PAULA MUTO, FOUNDER OF UBERDOC, APPOINTED TO U.S. FEDERAL HEALTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Uberdoc Health Technologies Corp.'s founder, Dr. Paula Muto, has been appointed to the National Committee on Vital and Health Statistics, a federal advisory body to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The appointment comes on the heels of the company achieving a major corporate milestone with its recent public listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange and Frankfurt Stock Exchange, positioning the company at the intersection of health care policy and market-driven innovation.
The NCVHS is a federal advisory committee that advises the secretary of health and human services on health data standards, patient privacy and administrative simplification. Dr. Muto joins the committee as a practising physician and health care entrepreneur with direct experience navigating the barriers that stand between patients and timely specialty care.
With over two decades of experience as a practising vascular surgeon, Dr. Muto brings front line credibility to both investors and policy-makers.
"I was tired of watching patients struggle to see a specialist, not because good doctors aren't available, but because the system in between has become too complicated," said Dr. Muto. "I founded Uberdoc to fix it. Serving on the NCVHS lets me bring that same urgency to the policy decisions that shape how health care actually works."
Uberdoc operates a two-sided marketplace connecting patients directly with board-certified specialists at transparent prices, eliminating traditional friction points such as referrals, network restrictions and administrative overhead. The platform has grown into one of the largest direct-pay specialty networks in the United States, with national coverage across multiple specialties and both in-person and virtual care delivery. Its public listing marks a significant step toward scaling a consumer-driven health care model in a market increasingly defined by rising costs, limited access and demand for price transparency.
"Paula founded this company on the conviction that health care should be simpler, more transparent, and centred on patients and physicians," said Sean Kearney, chief executive officer of Uberdoc. "Between our recent public listings and Paula's appointment to a federal advisory committee, we are entering a new phase with both the platform and the credibility to drive real change in how Americans access specialty care."
As a female founder in health care technology, Dr. Muto represents a still rare profile among publicly traded companies. Her combination of clinical practice, entrepreneurial vision and continued involvement as chief medical adviser and on the board of directors gives Uberdoc a distinctive foundation as the company enters its next phase of growth. Dr. Muto's continued clinical practice and federal advisory role reinforce Uberdoc's position as a company built by and for physicians.
Dr. Muto's appointment reflects increasing alignment between federal health care priorities of access, affordability and data transparency and Uberdoc's scalable, direct-pay model.
"My goal is to have a seat in every doctor's waiting room for a direct-pay patient," said Dr. Muto. "Everyone deserves equal access to the best."
Uberdoc stands as both a policy-aligned solution and a market-based platform, uniquely positioned to capitalize on the shift toward transparent, accessible and patient-centred health care.
