2.1 million appointments are booked on HotDoc every month with nearly 1 in 3 Australians using the platform to connect with their preferred doctor. What did it take to drive this kind of behaviour change and what does the future of Australia’s healthcare system look like?

In this episode of Unconventional Business, we take you on the transformative journey of Ben Hurst, CEO and Founder of HotDoc. From car park attendant to doctor, prison psychiatrist, New York novelist and finally - founder and entrepreneur, Ben shares what drove his career choices. We also explore the beginnings of the HotDoc platform, the impact of COVID on its growth, how the company thinks about differentiation, its future roadmap and a vision for Australia’s healthcare system.

The iOS App Review Ben mentioned:

★★★★★

I'm deaf, vocally impaired and along with PTSD and BPD. With HotDoc I can make my own appointment, get reminded, have the office of my Dr get in touch when it needs to be changed - and all done via the app and email. I just want to thank you for helping me become more independent and able to function.. 5 stars
