Lemonaid Health buys Dr. B’s fitness and longevity business
Lemonaid Health has acquired Dr. B’s fitness and longevity business, giving the telehealth and pharmacy platform a national gym-partner network and a new pipeline of health-focused consumers. The deal shifts Dr. B members and gym partners onto Lemonaid’s clinical systems over the coming months with no interruption in care.
Why it matters: - The acquisition gives Lemonaid Health a direct route into gym-based wellness programs and a larger pool of consumers already interested in preventive care, metabolic health and longevity. - Lemonaid Health also gains a partner channel that can turn a fitness interaction into an ongoing clinical and pharmacy relationship. - Existing Dr. B members keep their current programs and HSA/FSA eligibility during the transition.
What happened: - Lemonaid Health announced it acquired the fitness and longevity business of Dr. B on Oct. 5, 2026. - The deal includes Dr. B’s partnerships with national fitness brands and its longevity membership base. - Dr. B members and gym partners will move onto Lemonaid’s platform over the coming months. - The transition is expected to happen with no interruption in care.
The details: - Dr. B built one of the first scaled gym-as-clinic models in the U.S. - The model lets members complete a short online consultation and, when clinically appropriate, receive a Letter of Medical Necessity to pay for a gym membership with pre-tax HSA/FSA dollars. - Lemonaid says the acquisition brings three core assets: a national gym partner network reaching more than 5 million members, a longevity and metabolic-health patient base, and a partner-led consumer channel. - Lemonaid provides licensed clinicians in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. - Lemonaid also operates an in-house pharmacy and offers primary care, hormone health, sexual health and mental health services. - The company says a gym member’s first consult can become an ongoing care relationship. - Medical records are transferring securely to Lemonaid. - Members will get transition details by email before any change in access to care. - Gym partners keep their existing member offers and gain partner reporting on enrollment and engagement. - Lemonaid plans to expand longevity and preventive-health offerings for partner members through Q4 2026. - Lemonaid Health is a digital pharmacy and telehealth platform serving patients in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. - Lemonaid Health is a portfolio company of Bambu Capital. - Dr. B was founded by Cyrus Massoumi, founder of Zocdoc, and is based in New York City. - Dr. B is a Public Benefit Corporation and a certified B Corporation.
Between the lines: - The acquisition appears designed to plug Lemonaid into a channel where consumers are already spending money on health and fitness. - Bambu Capital is betting that pairing a licensed clinical platform with partner-owned customer relationships can scale faster than direct-to-consumer telehealth alone. - The gym-as-clinic model may appeal to employers, gyms and consumers looking for a simpler way to combine wellness spending with clinical support.
What's next: - Lemonaid says existing Dr. B programs will continue during the migration. - The company expects partner members to be fully moved onto Lemonaid’s clinical systems and pharmacy over the coming months. - Lemonaid plans further expansion of longevity and preventive-health offerings by the end of Q4 2026. - Members will receive emailed instructions before any change in how they access care.
The bottom line: - Lemonaid Health is turning a gym membership channel into a broader entry point for telehealth, pharmacy and longevity care.
