Shownotes

Dr. Simon Chang is a hospitalist and the CEO and co-founder of eNavvi, an online pharmacy platform. Since finishing his residency in 2022, Simon has been a part-time physician, splitting his time between clinical care and entrepreneurship. 

On this episode of How I Doctor, Offcall co-founder Dr. Graham Walker talks with Simon about building a career in medicine and a pharma-tech company at the same time, interacting with other physicians as both angel investors and product users, and partnering with like-minded companies including Mark Cuban’s Cost Plus Drugs. Simon explains why he set his entrepreneurial sights on prescription drugs and how eNavvi helps remove pricing-transparency barriers created by PBMs (pharmacy benefit managers). He also makes a convincing case that physicians are especially well-equipped to solve the most complex and stubborn problems in healthcare.
