Ask any HealthTap doctor about why they’re engaged in virtual healthcare and you’ll likely get the same answer: the desire to broaden their impact as physicians by helping more people.

HealthTap doctors support hundreds of thousands of people nationwide, providing high quality, accessible and affordable healthcare. 

They practice in our Urgent Care clinic, providing immediate care whenever and wherever it’s needed. They provide care and ongoing treatment — building long-lasting relationships with their patients — in our Primary Care clinic. They counteract the flood of medical misinformation on the internet by answering anonymous questions in our HealthTap Dr. Q&A. 

We’re immensely thankful for the work of all healthcare providers, and proud to celebrate three HealthTap network physicians. Meet Dr. Gurmukh Singh, Dr. Sally Sartin, and Dr. Arnold Lentnek.

Dr. Gurmukh Singh is one of the most active doctors in HealthTap’s network. He serves as Walter Shepeard Professor of Pathology and Chief of Clinical Pathology at Augusta University, Medical College of Georgia. 

A multiple-time HealthTap Top Doctor Award recipient and member of HealthTap's Medical Advisory Board, Dr. Singh is board certified in Anatomic and Clinical Pathology with Special Competence in Immunopathology. In medical research, he has published more than 100 peer-reviewed articles, received 14 federal grants as principal or co-investigator, and discovered two novel genes active in lungs.

As recipient of the March 2021 Top Doctor award, he was the most engaged physician in our Doctor Q&A. Dr. Singh has answered more than 43,000 patient questions, and his answers helped more than 1.3 million people in March alone.

Dr. Singh shared his thoughts on HealthTap's mission: "The organization is a vibrant, happy and industrious one dedicated to doing public good and uplifting for visitors."

Dr. Sartin is the best!!
"She’s amazing. Super helpful."
"Extremely nice and thorough."

These are just a handful of patient reviews about Dr. Sally Sartin, one of HealthTap’s Founding Virtual Primary Care clinic doctors. 

With more than 14 years’ experience in Family Practice, Dr. Sartin is a key member of our Primary Care team. She partners with patients on a range of concerns and issues. She offers preventive care such as cholesterol tests and diet counselling, and helps patients manage conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure. She’s here to support patients on every step of their healthcare journeys.

"I have really enjoyed being a part of HealthTap and have appreciated the doctor-friendly platform," writes Dr. Sartin.

Licensed in 39 states, Dr. Sartin completed her medical education and residency at Loma Linda University School of Medicine. Prior to transitioning to full-time virtual care, she practiced Emergency Medicine in Washington State. Her many travels to Nepal have helped inform her perspective on providing accessible primary care to underserved communities, both abroad and closer to home.

As an infectious disease specialist, Dr. Arnold Lentnek has helped thousands of people on HealthTap. He is known for his thoughtful answers to pressing questions, advocacy for virtual healthcare, and the compassionate care he provides to patients in HealthTap’s Urgent Care clinic.

“In a period of dizzying social and technical change, it is more important than ever that healthcare delivery recognize patient’s social expectations and meet their technical needs,” writes Dr. Lentnek. “Virtual healthcare fills an important place in offering both technical expertise and compassion according to the needs of each individual.

Dr. Lentnek, who earned his medical degree at Tufts University School of Medicine and completed an infectious disease fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania, is double board certified in internal medicine and infectious disease.
