Company mission
Weekend Health is on a mission to build the future of healthcare.
Our take
Weekend Health is a company building the "future of healthcare" through digital platforms for patients to manage chronic conditions and take more control of their treatment plans. So far, the company has built "Sequence", a scientific weight-loss platform, which was recently acquired by WeightWatchers.
Sequence combines nutrition and fitness plans with the prescription of FDA-approved weight-loss medications. Though the jury is still out on the use of these drugs (there are currently no long-term studies on their side effects, and their use by celebrities was much-condemned), Weekend Health appears to have approached their provision with care, and the acquisition by WeightWatchers is certainly a promising step for the company.
If future Weekend Health projects see the same success as Sequence, then the future is certainly bright for the company. With the advent of telehealth-first care, it has positioned itself well to be a force in the digital healthcare revolution, and remains one to watch in the coming years.
