From testosterone to tech stack, Gameday Men’s Health is scaling like a startup – Refresh Miami

As Haleem “Dr. Hal” Mohammed walked away from running hospitals and ballooning administrative teams, he didn’t know he’d end up helping build one of the fastest-growing health franchises in U.S. history. What he did know: the system was broken. 

“It should be the doctor, the patient, and that’s it,” he told Refresh Miami.

That conviction led him to Gameday Men’s Health, a network of clinics rethinking how men approach care. On the surface, the business looks traditional: brick-and-mortar clinics offering lab work, treatments for weight management, hormone therapy, and other performance-focused services. 

But behind the scenes, Gameday is anything but old-school. The company has developed a proprietary tech stack – complete with a custom electronic medical record (EMR) system, predictive analytics, and telehealth integrations – that allows it to scale at a pace rarely seen in healthcare.

“Most EMRs are built for billing. They’re clunky, and they take doctors away from patients,” Mohammed said. “We don’t take insurance, so we didn’t need any of that. What we needed was a system that gave clinicians their time back.”

So the team built one. With software partner Lobbie, Gameday designed a purpose-built EMR that consolidated what had been four or five disconnected tools into a single platform. Now rolled out across all its clinics, the system streamlines everything from in-office labs to telehealth notes to inventory management. Charting that once took hours can now be finished in minutes.

The impact goes beyond efficiency. Patients get something rare in today’s medical system: face time. Initial visits last 45 minutes to an hour. Same-day labs mean results within minutes. Follow-ups are handled by the same clinician, whether in person or online. 

“Continuity of care is huge,” Mohammed said. “Too often in telehealth you never see the same provider twice. That’s not safe, especially in hormonal health. We do the opposite.”

Technology runs through every part of the operation. AI-driven scheduling tools predict no-shows and optimize bookings. Corporate dashboards track outcomes and clinic performance. Automated workflows trigger reminders for patients and follow-up tasks for staff. Coming soon is a mobile app where patients can schedule visits, view results, and message providers.

This hybrid approach – high-touch local care paired with seamless digital systems – has powered the company’s growth. When Mohammed came onboard, Gameday had around 15 clinics. Today there are nearly 400, with a goal of hitting 1,000 by 2027. The company has already served more than a million men nationwide.

For Mohammed, the story is personal. Years of high-stress leadership roles left him overweight and unhealthy. He resigned, lost 70 pounds, and shortly after, opened his first Gameday clinic – ten days after the birth of his son. The blend of professional experience and personal transformation shaped his philosophy: concierge-level medicine should be accessible, not a luxury. 

“I always call Gameday concierge medicine for every guy,” he said. “We’re bringing it to everyone.”

The model resonates in Miami, where Gameday has opened eight clinics with more in development. The city’s role in the company’s story underscores something bigger: South Florida’s growing influence as a hub for health tech innovation.
