Pediatrics practice lands $110M to continue aggressive footprint expansion. Zarminali Pediatrics, a newly launched pediatric care provider focused on integrated primary and specialty services, has secured $110 million in Series A funding. The raise brings the company's total capital to $150 million. The round was led by Healthier Capital, with participation from General Catalyst, K2 HealthVentures and Boston Children's Hospital. Amir Dan Rubin, CEO and founding managing partner of Healthier Capital and former CEO of Amazon One Medical, will join Zarminali's board of directors. Zarminali plans to use the new funding to accelerate deployment of its proprietary technology platform, expand into new markets and open additional de novo clinics. The company is building a nationally branded, multispecialty pediatric practice model, with clinics co-located alongside urgent care centers and staffed by both pediatricians and specialists employed directly by Zarminali. "Zarminali is building the digital, operational and clinical infrastructure for what modern pediatric care should look like in the U.S.," said holly maloney, managing director and head of health assurance at General Catalyst, in a press release. "The team has consistently outperformed expectations, and we believe they have the potential to build the first truly scaled, sustainable pediatric health system in the country." Founded in 2024, Zarminali has pursued aggressive footprint growth through a combination of de novo clinic openings and acquisitions. The company acquired nine established practice groups in 2025 and currently operates 28 clinics across eight states. In 2026, Zarminali plans to continue acquiring practices while opening 15 new clinics, including locations in Chicago, Milwaukee and Dallas. The company delivered more than 100,000 patient visits in 2025. Zarminali aims to operate in states representing the top 30 populations within the next two years. "Our entire goal is to be able to say, 'anything and everything related to your child that can happen outside of the hospital, we can deliver under one umbrella,'" Founder and CEO danish Qureshi told fierce healthcare. Qureshi founded the company after navigating fragmented pediatric care when his daughter was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder, highlighting the lack of coordination between primary care providers and specialists. That fragmentation comes amid worsening pediatric health outcomes nationwide. According to a recent JAMA study cited by the company, children's physical, mental and developmental health has declined significantly across numerous indicators over the past 16 years. Zarminali aims to address those gaps by coordinating care across the full pediatric continuum. Boston Children's Hospital will serve as a key collaborator as Zarminali expands in Massachusetts and pursues additional health system partnerships nationwide. "Ultimately, what we care about is getting the best possible care for our patients," Qureshi said. "That means working closely with health systems - sending referrals and staying in constant communication." Zarminali currently accepts a range of commercial insurance plans and plans to pursue value-based arrangements in the future. The company has begun hiring team members with experience in value-based care and Medicaid managed plans to initiate early payer conversations. While not rushing into managed Medicaid or value-based models, Qureshi said tracking outcomes is essential regardless of reimbursement strategy. Zarminali is building an analytics platform designed to create a nationwide quality scorecard for clinicians, laying the groundwork for future value-based care initiatives. Looking ahead, the company plans to expand specialty offerings to include speech therapy, occupational therapy and behavioral health services. Select locations will feature extended-hours urgent care, and by the end of 2026, Zarminali aims to offer 24/7 telehealth for primary care, with plans to broaden virtual services over time. Zarminali recruits clinicians through both in-house hiring and word-of-mouth referrals.
