DocDoc and DoctorPage Join Forces to Create the Largest Digital Healthcare Portal in Pan-Asia

Union Will Offer Doctors, Business Partners and Consumers the Most Complete Set of E-Health Services Available Online

SINGAPORE, June 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- DocDoc (http://docdoc.com) and DoctorPage (http://doctorpage.sg) today announced the signing of a definitive agreement to join forces to become Asia's premiere e-health portal. This agreement will create a combined company ideally positioned to drive more patients to doctors, deliver a better experience for patients and enhance services for its doctors.

The combined company will be known as DocDoc Pte. Ltd. The company will combine facilities and operate its headquarters in Boat Quay, Singapore.

The new integrated entity will have dominant market share in Singapore, a substantive foothold in South Korea, and plans to expand operations into three new countries by end of 2013. DocDoc is a community of over 500,000 engaged users searching for health-related information and healthcare services each month.

The organization includes key investors such as Mr Koh Boon Hwee (former Chairman of DBS bank, Singtel, and Singapore Airlines), 500 Startups (leading Silicon Valley VC led by Dave McClure, formerly with PayPal and Facebook), Jungle Ventures (a Singaporean VC, backed by the Singapore Government's NRF program) and Michael Brehm (Founder of Rebate Networks, Business Angel of DailyDeal which was acquired by Google, brands4friends acquired by eBay, and scoreloop acquired by RIM).

"This is a very exciting deal because it combines DocDoc's strength in the medical industry with DoctorPage's expertise in digital marketing and patient acquisition," said Bill Hawkins, current CEO of Immucor, Inc., former Chairman & CEO of Medtronic and investor in DocDoc. "The new company fits the early-stage pattern of successful consumer internet companies, and is on track to creating a distinguishable brand in e-health commerce."

The combined company's management team will draw upon the experienced group of leaders from both companies. Grace will serve as Chief Executive Officer of the new organization. Max-F. Scheichenost will be the President of DocDoc.

"We are thrilled to combine the strengths of these two dynamic organizations in an industry that is ripe with opportunities," said Grace Park, CEO. "We believe the union will bring together the best of two successful companies for faster expansion, superior customer service, innovative digital health solutions and improved efficiencies."

"DoctorPage and DocDoc share a common goal to generate more business for local doctors and dentists while providing the best possible service to patients," said Max-F. Scheichenost, President. "By combining our complementary networks, we are well positioned for accelerated growth in a massive Asian market."
