Philippine private healthcare provider GoRocky has raised US$2 million (€1.73 million) from Singaporean and local venture capital firms to extend its telehealth platform beyond men’s health into chronic care services. The expansion targets conditions including obesity, diabetes, PCOS, and hypertension, which affect millions of Filipinos.

Founded in 2022, GoRocky initially focused on destigmatized men’s health issues such as erectile dysfunction and hair loss. In less than three years, the platform has supported over 30,000 patients, establishing a scalable model for digital healthcare delivery in the Philippines.

The new funding will enable GoRocky and its weight management brand GoSlim to integrate diagnostic services, teleconsultations, pharmacies, and treatment plans into a single digital platform. Care is delivered exclusively through licensed independent doctors, ensuring patient safety and compliance while bypassing unregulated options prevalent in the market.

Co-founder and Chief Commercial Officer Joaqui Palaña highlighted that the platform simplifies patient access to high-quality healthcare, particularly for conditions that are challenging to manage due to systemic barriers. By addressing root causes rather than symptoms, GoRocky aims to improve long-term health outcomes and reduce preventable complications.

CEO Kiyanusch Braun noted that the platform provides rapid, home-based consultations and prescription delivery at lower costs than traditional care. The integrated model enhances patient convenience while supporting data security and regulatory compliance.

The funding will accelerate platform upgrades, broaden service offerings, and strengthen patient engagement, enabling GoRocky to serve a wider population with chronic and men’s health needs.
