Blackbird-and-Woolworths-backed start-up Eucalyptus revolutionised the telehealth sector pre-COVID-19 through its multiple online health clinics. It bucked the downturn in tech funding in 2023 by moving to prescribe #Ozempic through its weight-loss-focused channels. The journey for founders Benny Kleist, Charlie Gearside and Tim Doyle has not been without controversy. 🖋 Anastasia Santoreneos for Forbes Australia Issue 12.
We've set out to raise the standard of digital healthcare. That's why we're committed to sharing our learnings with the wider medical community. We’re publishing research in the emerging space of digital obesity management services, on the quality and safety of all of our programs, along with patient adherence and satisfaction. Our dedicated research team is made up of both internal staff and external advisors.

Euc’s secret sauce is a slightly complicated recipe. Every day it’s a different combination of the people, the mission, the patients, the place and the problems we’re solving. That’s why explaining ourselves to people outside of Euc can be tricky. This is why distilling our operating principles is so crucial. Check out more about our operating principles and how they work in the comments below.

What does a patient journey with our telehealth platform look like? Meet the Juniper patient journey. Our multidisciplinary care team supports patients at every touch point, guided by data-driven insights gathered in real-time. From their initial practitioner consult through to onboarding and ongoing management, patients engage directly with their practitioner via our telehealth platform, unlocking unlimited communication. They receive, on average, 10 touch points of communication from their care team within the first two weeks of starting their weight loss program. Typically, patients receive far more communication from their wider care team when compared to traditional in-person care. You can read more about our patient journey here: https://lnkd.in/gysVphUu

A lot can happen when 20 talented Eucalypts lock themselves in a room for the day… Our Growth and Retail teams recently came together for "Think Tank Day", where over 20 team members from Sydney and Manila joined forces to push the boundaries of innovation at Euc. Ideation unlocks our potential to explore new markets and enhances team collaboration. Seeing team members from different functions come together fuelled a hotbed of creativity and innovative thinking. And a bit of friendly competition between the three teams showcased the passion and drive that Eucalypts have to continuously innovate and improve. The Outcome? Watch this space… 👀 We hosted this creative marathon at the beautifully designed Chinatown Country Club, a stunning space to get the creative juices flowing.

Plenty to reflect on almost 1 week after Burning GP from The Medical Republic and Health Services Daily, both for us here at Eucalyptus and the broader General Practice community. It was great to share the stage with colleagues (Darran Foo, Roy Mariathas MBBS, Max Mollenkopf, Ati Jhajj, Aaron Wong) from different areas in and around digital health and general practice, particularly on the agreement that we are ultimately aligned on how digital health technologies form part of the solution, not a disruption to established best practices. I left hopeful that we were able to articulate that the younger generation of GPs value the efforts of our colleagues in championing the patient and look forward to working together on establishing the stringent standards and guardrails that will uphold this through ongoing digital transformation. There will be progress - we will improve quality and safety in the industry, we will improve interoperability and promote continuity of care - but it will take a collective effort to ensure that we don't let division and fear continue to drive private organisations further from the health system, only worsening fragmentation.
