Oshi Health Welcomes Danny Krifcher as New President and COO to Drive Growth
On May 12, 2026, Oshi Health announced the addition of Danny Krifcher as their President and Chief Operating Officer (COO). This strategic appointment is set to drive the company's quest to provide outstanding virtual gastroenterology (GI) care across the nation. Unlike any other facility of its kind, Oshi operates as a virtual-first multidisciplinary GI clinic, emphasizing the delivery of accessible and high-quality healthcare to millions.
Danny Krifcher, with over 20 years of experience in the realms of healthcare and technology, is poised to make a significant impact. His most recent stint was with Millennium Physician Group, Florida’s leading independent primary care group, where he played a crucial role in managing over 150 locations and various specialty clinics. Krifcher’s diverse background, including roles as Head of Growth and Chief Financial Officer at Audacious Inquiry and an executive role at Aledade, equips him with a unique perspective that will be valuable as Oshi continues its rapid growth trajectory.
Sam Holliday, the co-founder and CEO of Oshi Health, expressed confidence in Krifcher's capabilities, stating, "As we enter our next phase of accelerated growth, Danny brings the energy and experience to expand our infrastructure, teams, and systems to deliver population-level impact at scale." This collaboration marks a pivotal moment for Oshi Health, especially in the face of the increasing demand for virtual healthcare solutions.
Kricher highlighted the urgency of bringing Oshi's high-quality GI care to an even broader audience, emphasizing the unique approach the clinic takes in ensuring patient care delivery. "What drew me to Oshi is the clinical rigor, sensitivity of care, and documented outcomes that Oshi provides. The coordinated, whole-person GI care model not only produces better results for patients but also makes it easier for employers and health plans to manage costs," he added.
This patient-focused approach is backed by comprehensive research; the largest peer-reviewed study on virtual multidisciplinary GI care revealed that 85.4% of over 11,000 patients nationwide reported improvement in their symptoms. Moreover, Oshi's recent Impact Report demonstrated impressive annual savings of $6,081 per member in a matched-control claims analysis.
As Oshi Health continues to innovate, integrating technology and AI into their services will further enhance their operational capacities. Sameer Berry, MD, MBA, co-founder and Chief Medical Officer at Oshi, noted that with Danny at the helm of operations, the company can better leverage technology to deliver superior GI care.
Oshi Health stands out not only for its service but also for its extensive availability. The clinic is in-network with a majority of insurance providers, offering telehealth solutions that reach patients in all 50 states. The combination of specialized medical care, nutrition counseling, and psychological support creates an environment where patients can receive comprehensive GI care tailored to their individual needs.
In conclusion, Danny Krifcher's leadership role at Oshi Health heralds the company's commitment to expanding its reach and improving GI patient outcomes across the nation. His vast experience in the interplay between healthcare and technology is expected to drive significant advancements in Oshi's operational model, ultimately benefitting countless individuals seeking quality gastroenterology care.
