Founded by physicians. Built for practices.

OPX Global began inside a working medical practice — solving real operational problems for real providers. That clinical origin still shapes how we work today.

Our Story

Solutions proven in practice, before they were ever a product

During the operational upheaval of the pandemic, Dr. Ramesh Chellamuthu faced the same pressures every practice owner did — rising administrative burden, staffing strain, and revenue under threat. At his own multi-specialty group, Regional Clinic in Gadsden, Alabama, he developed remote operating models that ultimately moved roughly 60% of back-office work off-site without sacrificing quality.

Those solutions worked so well that other practices wanted them. OPX Global was created to bring the same clinically-grounded, outcome-focused approach to physician practices, group practices, and health systems nationwide.
