Today I'm focused on the agentic era—where AI systems operate autonomously and require fundamentally new approaches to security, commerce, and trust.

As a performance-driven healthcare technology executive, I bring 15+ years of experience defining product vision, leading end-to-end development, and driving innovation that improves outcomes and fuels growth. Throughout my career, I’ve focused on building user-centered products that not only meet business goals but also serve a deeper purpose—enhancing trust, clarity, and impact in how we interact with technology.

I began my journey with mathematics, drawn to the way numbers could reveal patterns, structure, and meaning. That foundation led me to pursue a master’s in data science at Johns Hopkins University, where I learned how to turn analytical thinking into practical tools for solving real-world problems. Over time, my path became more focused: I found purpose in applying data science to healthcare. Today, as a Data Scientist at Lucem Health, I work on clinical AI solutions that help healthcare organizations identify disease risk earlier and support more proactive care. My work focuses on building machine learning models and longitudinal EHR pipelines for early disease detection and risk stratification across a range of chronic and rare diseases. What drives me is the belief that healthcare AI should not only be technically strong, but also practical, trustworthy, and responsible. I work across data science, clinical context, product strategy, and responsible AI evaluation to help turn complex healthcare data into early risk signals that care teams can actually use. My story is about connecting mathematical rigor, data science, and human impact: using AI not just to predict outcomes, but to help people act sooner, make better decisions, and improve care.

I’m passionate about redefining what modern healthcare can look like. After graduating with my Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery from the University of Auckland, I wanted to combine clinical medicine with innovation, which led me to create Selfcaremen, a fast-growing men’s health platform now operating across New Zealand and Australia. My goal has always been to make preventative healthcare more accessible, engaging, and relevant for men, blending strong clinical standards with a fresh, modern approach.Alongside building Selfcaremen, I continue to invest heavily in my own training and development. I work as an Occupational Medicine Physician and RACP/AFOEM Registrar with Sonic Healthcare in Melbourne, where I’m undertaking specialist training with The Royal Australasian College of Physicians in Occupational and Environmental Medicine (2025–2029). I’ve also completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Occupational and Environmental Medicine from the University of Otago and hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Women’s Health. This background allows me to bring a practical, well-rounded perspective to healthcare, sitting at the intersection of clinical work, workplace health, and entrepreneurship.

Stephanie Eltz is the CEO and Co-Founder of Doctify, the global healthtech platform transforming how patients find, trust and connect with healthcare providers. A former trauma and orthopaedic surgeon, Stephanie brings a rare combination of frontline clinical experience and entrepreneurial leadership to one of healthcare’s most pressing challenges: trust, transparency and informed choice. The idea for Doctify was sparked by a deeply personal experience. When Stephanie discovered a mole she feared could be cancerous, she was struck by how difficult it was - even as a doctor - to find a specialist she trusted. In a world where consumers can instantly assess restaurants or taxis, healthcare decisions still relied on guesswork. That insight became the foundation for Doctify: a platform built by doctors, for doctors and patients, designed to bring verified feedback, credibility and clarity into healthcare decision-making. Since launching, Stephanie has led Doctify’s growth across the UK, Austria, Germany, Ireland, the UAE and Australia, helping millions of patients make more confident choices about their care. Under her leadership, Doctify has evolved beyond patient reviews into a global healthcare network, connecting patients with the right specialists, and clinicians with one another through peer-to-peer skill endorsements, professional networking and data-driven insights that support continuous improvement in care quality. Stephanie’s leadership and influence have been recognised across the tech industry. She was celebrated as one of the UK’s most inspirational women in technology at the InspiringFifty Awards, a prestigious accolade honouring exceptional female leaders in tech. In addition, Stephanie was longlisted among the Most Influential Women in UK Tech by Computer Weekly, underscoring her impact at the intersection of technology, healthcare and entrepreneurship. Driven by a belief that better healthcare starts with better information, Stephanie continues to lead Doctify’s mission to build the world’s most trusted global network of healthcare providers - empowering patients, supporting clinicians, and shaping a more transparent, connected future for healthcare.

Dr. Shiv Goel, MD is a board-certified physician and the founder of Prime Vitality Care, a physician-led functional medicine and wellness clinic based in San Antonio, Texas, with telehealth services available to patients in all 50 states. Dr. Goel trained in internal medicine and functional and integrative medicine, and has spent his career building a practice model that treats the root causes of poor health rather than managing symptoms in isolation. His clinical philosophy is grounded in the understanding that hormones, metabolism, inflammation, gut health, and mental well-being are deeply interconnected systems — and that lasting health improvements require addressing all of them together. Prime Vitality Care specializes in physician-supervised GLP-1 medical weight loss programs using semaglutide and tirzepatide, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) for women, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for men, peptide therapy including Sermorelin, BPC-157, and PT-141, and comprehensive functional medicine consultations for patients with chronic fatigue, gut dysfunction, autoimmune concerns, and metabolic disease. Dr. Goel is a sought-after expert on the clinical application of GLP-1 therapies, the role of hormonal imbalance in weight resistance, and the future of physician-led telehealth medicine. He speaks regularly to the gap between what conventional medicine offers patients with metabolic dysfunction and what a root-cause, functional approach can deliver when the right diagnostics and time are applied. Through Prime Vitality Care's HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, Dr. Goel brings the same standard of clinical depth and personalization to patients nationwide that San Antonio patients have relied on in person — with lab coordination through local Quest Diagnostics or CPL sites and all prescriptions compounded and shipped directly to patients.

## Dr. Tim Scott Dr. Tim Scott isn't your typical physician. After a decade in emergency medicine witnessing the devastating consequences of metabolic dysfunction firsthand, he realized a hard truth: our healthcare system excels at crisis management but fails miserably at preventing disease.

His expertise in metabolic health, functional medicine, and cutting-edge therapeutics has helped thousands of patients reclaim their health after years of being told their lab work was "normal" despite feeling terrible. Known for his direct, no-nonsense approach, Dr. Scott combines advanced medical knowledge with practical solutions that work in real life, not just in textbooks. He specializes in reversing metabolic disorders, optimizing hormonal health, and using peptide therapies to address complex health challenges that conventional medicine often misses. Dr. Scott is passionate about empowering patients through education, believing that understanding your body is the first step to healing it. When he's not transforming patients' health, he's advancing the field through education, speaking engagements, and training the next generation of metabolic health practitioners.
