After gracing national stages as a concert pianist and overseeing the health of thousands of US soldiers as an Army physician “America’s Favourite Doctor”, Laura Purdy, is still full of surprises and an endless reserve of passion for her work. While some might consider her early-twenties diversion from music to medicine surprising, Dr. Purdy has remained grounded in the common thread that they share: affecting powerful, positive change in the lives of others. This has and always will be her ultimate life mission regardless of the particular “hat” she wears on any given day - of which there are many. As a wife, mother, and one of the only physicians licensed in all 50 states plus Washington, D.C., a medical executive, a business consultant and the voice of the digital healthcare (also known as telehealth or telemedicine) revolution in America. Dr. Purdy is resolute in her commitment to leave the world far better than she found it.
First introduced to the concept of telehealth during her military service, Dr. Purdy quickly realized the limitless potential of leveraging technology to redefine the way we deliver and receive healthcare. Today her career is broad, deep, and wide. She has a panel of more than 20,000 patients, holding various physician executive roles and advises hundreds of small businesses across the country. She is a staunch advocate for virtual health as the way of the future, therefore, empowering more affordable and equitable access to care for people across America.
