HelloMD adds industry veteran Megan Henderson as momentum accelerates in Canada

TORONTO, June 25, 2019 /CNW/ – HelloMD announces the appointment of Megan Henderson, former Executive Producer of The GrowthOp, to the position of Director of Marketing and Business Development for Canada. Leveraging her unique industry experience, Ms. Henderson will be responsible for working with the HelloMD’s partners to accelerate on-boarding of medical cannabis patients as well as promoting the company’s B2B solutions to leading medical cannabis brands, mainstream healthcare providers and communities.

Since its launch in 2015, HelloMD’s turnkey telehealth platform has facilitated more than 100,000 virtual consults between medical cannabis patients and licensed practitioners. HelloMD is currently active in Canada, the United States and soon in South Africa.

HelloMD works with market-leading medical cannabis providers, including Medical Cannabis by Shoppers, The Green Organic Dutchmen and Natural Health Services, to help grow and facilitate patient on-boarding.

I am very excited to help in the continued growth of such a strong, medically focused cannabis brand. Assisting patients in gaining access to medical cannabis is key to ensuring patients needs are properly met and I believe strongly in HelloMD’s abilities to help make that happen. I’m also looking forward to working with partners who are putting patients needs first in Canada.
