Clinician-Powered
Investing

Scrub Capital is a venture capital firm reshaping early-stage health care investing. Our unique model unites clinicians, founders, operators, and technology experts as LPs and active partners in fund operations. We believe that the best health care solutions arise from those who deeply understand real-world challenges.

We invest in our clinician members with programming for career diversification, hands-on education in angel and venture investing, and private in-person and virtual events.

How We Invest


Scrub Capital writes $100K – $300K strategic checks into pre-seed, seed, and some Series A opportunities. When interest is high, we also run SPVs alongside the fund investment.
Our focus is intentionally broad within health care-including health IT, digital health, tech-enabled services, and class I and Il medical devices. We do not invest in medications or class Ill devices.

The Collective Power of Scrub Capital


Scrub Capital’s 650-member clinician community spans the entire care team— nurses, pharmacists, physicians, therapists, and other allied health professionals, each contributing to our shared mission. These professionals are more than just clinicians; they are experienced founders, builders, operators, and investors, leveraging their multifaceted expertise to drive strategic growth.
 
These clinicians actively participate in deal sourcing, portfolio support, and knowledge-sharing to drive impactful investments. Clinicians benefit from career growth programs that include education in venture investing and exclusive networking opportunities. Our structured programming empowers clinicians to grow as influential leaders in venture investing and the broader health tech ecosystem.


The community is currently invite-only or by application. You can apply or nominate someone here.
