Welcoming Jeremious Henderson and Dr. Peter Stahl to The Team

Hims & Hers has entered a critical stage for its business as the company pursues a previously announced proposed business combination with Oaktree Acquisition Corp. To ensure Hims & Hers continues to grow the strategic power to execute on the company’s mission of providing high-quality care for an increasingly broad range of patient needs, the team has hired two experts in their respective fields to join the team. Jeremious Henderson joins the company as Senior Vice President of Human Resources, while Dr. Peter Stahl will serve as the Senior Vice President of Men’s Sexual Health and Urology.

“We are pioneering a new way for patients to access healthcare,” said Hims & Hers Co-Founder and CEO Andrew Dudum. “As a quickly growing organization, we’re focused on hiring leaders with the knowledge and ability to push our business to the next level, and help us expand access to affordable, convenient, high-quality care for people across the country. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have Jeremious on the team to lead HR. His extensive experience as a leading-edge HR leader will undoubtedly move the needle in helping our employees, and expanding company, flourish. Beyond that, I’m thrilled to officially welcome Dr. Stahl to our team, having worked with us in an advisor capacity since before launching Hims three years ago. Dr. Stahl is a board-certified urologist and an extremely talented medical professional whose expertise building and leading clinical and research programs has been critical to Hims’ success. Leveraging many years of medical and telemedicine experience related to men’s sexual health, I am confident Dr. Stahl will help us continue to develop the premier virtual care experience for men.”
