Healthstore Closes Series A Financing and Moves Quickly to Commercial Launch for Enhance Club and Bolstering Leadership Team

HOUSTON, May 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — eHealthcare company Healthstore Holdings Inc. (“Healthstore“) today announced that it has raised US$4M in its series A round funding. The capital will be used to commercialise and monetise the key online assets within its portfolio of digital direct-to-consumer marketing. They will also be building out the team across North America, investing in pharmacy infrastructure, and entering key market segments like chronic care. 

“When Mark Catroppa and I founded Healthstore earlier this year, the goal was to build it into the preeminent brand for eHealthcare across North America,” said Monty Sikka, co-founder & Executive Chairman of Healthstore. “We are incredibly fortunate to welcome our Series A investors as partners, and respect the need for transparency, end-to-end compliance, and strong corporate governance principles to steward the company going forward.” 

The global healthcare industry is witnessing long-term structural shifts due to technology and Healthstore’s co-founder & Chief Executive Officer states “Healthstore will succeed by providing consumers a technology enabled platform that not only leads to more efficient delivery, but also to more personalised healthcare for all users. We are now uniquely positioned to layer our financial capital and human capital on top of our unique portfolio of digital assets.”

Enhance Club  

Enhance Club Canada Launched as the Discreet Solution to Men’s Sexual Health & Wellness Concerns

Enhance Club is a digital platform to address sexual health and well-being that is now serving Canadians. Erectile dysfunction impacts the lives of millions of men across the US and Canada, many of whom are not addressing the issue. With no wait times, long lines or booking of appointments, Enhance Club can provide everything – from licensed healthcare provider consultations to valid prescriptions issued in just a few clicks. 

“Enhance Club is as real as it gets. Our commitment to our customers is expressed through our values and commitment to compliance, plus the safety and quality of our products and digital services,” says Jodhvir Sarai, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Healthstore. Enhance Club delivers the convenience of a health clinic, the service of a local pharmacy, and the security of a doctor’s office – and all from the privacy of your home. 

Enhance Club will be launched in the US in the near future and be closely followed by large-scale commercial launches of Healthstore’s other digital assets. These include healthstore.com, birthcontrol.com and pet.net.
