Curative

What Curative does

Curative Talent, LLC is a US healthcare staffing and recruiting company operating as the dedicated recruiting arm of Doximity, the world's largest professional medical network. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Irving, Texas, Curative connects healthcare facilities (hospitals, clinics, government and university healthcare institutions) with clinicians—physicians (MD/DO), nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and certified registered nurse anesthetists—for locum tenens, full-time, part-time, and telemedicine placements across all 50 US states, the District of Columbia, and US territories. The firm operates as a private LLC with 101-250 employees and maintains a sales-led go-to-market motion that is simultaneously B2B (direct engagement with healthcare facilities) and B2C (self-serve clinician job board).

The core product, the Curative Talent Platform, is a recruiting and job-search platform integrated with Doximity's professional medical network, which covers over 80% of US physicians. The platform provides facility-side direct sales, a self-serve clinician job board filtered by state, specialty, credential type, and employment type, and a cross-channel pathway via the "Apply with Doximity" application flow. A sub-product, Curative PreCheck, streamlines credentialing and license verification as an embedded step in the placement workflow. Technology is described as leveraging Doximity's intelligent matching capabilities rather than proprietary in-house AI, and no AI/ML features, patents, or AI senior hires are disclosed.

Curative's revenue model is transaction-fee based, earning placement fees on both locum tenens and permanent placements. Pricing is quote-based per placement and not publicly disclosed. The firm monetizes both sides of a two-sided market: healthcare facilities pay for clinician placement, while clinicians receive free job-matching services. Distribution spans direct enterprise sales to healthcare facilities, the self-serve Curative job board for clinicians, and channel presence through Doximity Talent Solutions. The firm was acquired as a subsidiary of Doximity and earned ClearlyRated Best of Staffing awards in both Client and Talent Satisfaction in 2024.
