Ramon Lizardo

Ramon Lizardo is a board-certified emergency physician turned founder who built Tele911, the largest virtual emergency medicine practice in the United States. Tele911 puts an ER doctor on a paramedic's iPad in roughly 37 seconds, letting crews treat people in their living rooms instead of hauling them to a hospital that does not need them. He earned his MD at 24, sold his first company at 29, advised health plans, and scaled Tele911 from a 2015 idea into a COVID-era lifeline spanning 7,500 medics and 150-plus health plans. He stepped down as CEO at the end of 2024 and remains on the board.
