Our mission is Helping people live longer, healthier lives. Docplanner is a SaaS tool for doctors and clinics used to optimize their patient flow, reduce no-shows, and digitize their practices in order to be able to spend more time with the patient. We also operate marketplace websites in 13 countries which serve approximately 85 million patients monthly to easily find the right doctor and book an appointment. Only last month, more than 13 million medical visits were booked via our platform. That makes us one of the world's leading marketplaces connecting doctors and patients. Last but not least, we operate the fastest-growing CRM platform for hospitals and clinics to connect with their users by redesigning the patient experience.

Docplanner was founded in 2012. Our team now numbers approximately 2,800 people based across several offices in Europe and Latin America, or working remotely. We are backed by leading venture capital funds including Point Nine Capital, Goldman Sachs Private Capital and One Peak Partners, raising a total of approximately €300 million to date.

“Culture eats strategy for breakfast” according to Peter Drucker. We believe in that. We’re looking for exceptional people that can help us change the world while building an amazing company.
