Dr. Caccamese’s appointment marks an important step in establishing local clinical leadership as Rocket Doctor begins seeing patients across the state. As Maryland Medical Lead, Dr. Caccamese will oversee clinical operations across the state, support physician recruitment and onboarding, and ensure the delivery of high-quality, patient-centered care. She also currently serves as Medical Director at Towson University, where she leads student health services and initiatives focused on improving access for diverse patient populations.

“Rocket Doctor represents a meaningful evolution in how care can be delivered,” said Dr. Suzanne Caccamese. “I’ve seen firsthand the barriers many patients face in accessing timely care, and I’m excited to help build a model that improves access while maintaining strong clinical standards.”

Dr. Caccamese previously practiced as a primary care physician in internal medicine at the University of Maryland, where she delivered comprehensive care and supported coordination across complex patient populations. Her experience spans clinical practice, academic medicine, and healthcare leadership, with a consistent focus on access, quality, and innovation.

“Our expansion into Maryland is about bringing timely, accessible care to more patients who need it,” said Dr. William Cherniak, Co-Founder and CEO of Rocket Doctor Inc. “With Dr. Caccamese’s leadership and deep experience in the local healthcare landscape, we’re building a strong foundation to deliver high-quality care and improve outcomes across the state.”

Rocket Doctor’s growth in Maryland reflects its broader strategy to establish strong local clinical leadership while integrating its platform into leading healthcare markets. By combining physician-led care with digital infrastructure, the Company continues to advance its mission to improve access, continuity, and quality of care for underserved populations, and looks forward to sharing additional Maryland-related developments in the near future.
