SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 9, 2014) - Doximity, the largest and fastest-growing secure network for physicians, today shared its record-setting 2013 growth numbers. The network more than doubled in size in the past year to 250,000 members -- outgrowing such esteemed companies and organizations as Epocrates, Epic, and the American Medical Association -- and established itself as the nation's leading medical collaborative.

"With Obamacare and baby boomers filling patient waiting rooms, maintaining a high standard of care demands ever greater efficiency from our healthcare professionals," said Jeff Tangney, CEO and founder of Doximity. "Doctors need a secure way to connect and collaborate. We built Doximity as a place where physicians can communicate quickly and seamlessly across teams, hospitals and entire health systems."

In addition to providing a digital home for over a third of practicing U.S. physicians, Doximity achieved a number of other milestones in 2013:

  • 10,000+ physician-to-physician messages sent daily
  • 50+ third-party sites using Doximity's login API
  • 200+ paying clients on Doximity TalentFinder platform
  • 70,000+ consulting and career offers made to physicians

During the past year, the network has also announced marquee partnerships with the Cleveland Clinic and U.S. News & World Report. Doximity attributes its growing healthcare clout to a remarkably accomplished user base. "We have assembled a veritable dream team of American physicians," said Tangney. "Collectively they have authored more than a million peer-reviewed publications, have received 120,000 NIH grants, and include 200 inductees into the Institute of Medicine."
