In 1973 as a university student, Ann recognized the time and money benefits of preventive healthcare--keeping people healthy in lieu of bringing them back to health. This understanding of the positive financial, personal, and practical implications of prevention and responsible healthcare is the keystone and passion of her education and career. After a tenure as a university professor and a successful sales/marketing executive, she founded WellCare Dimensions Inc. in 1996. The mission of the company was to provide a new dimension to the delivery of healthcare products and services through the 24hr Virtual Clinic.

Robert L. Hood has a diverse executive management background, having held positions in operations, corporate planning, strategic marketing, and business development for various corporations in different industries. In the early 1980's while Director of Corporate Planning at GATX, Bob was one of the pioneers of the systematic strategic planning process, which evolved into the strategic marketing programs of the 21st Century. He served as Director of Corporate Planning for Bally, where he spearheaded the acquisition of Life Cycle Inc., which became Life Fitness, one of the world's largest and most successful exercise equipment companies. As a Co-owner and Executive Vice President of Business Development, Bob directed the pioneering of several exercise equipment technological breakthroughs. Following his time at Life Fitness, Bob teamed up with Dr. Ann Hawkins and founded WellCare Dimensions and 24hr Virtual Clinic.

"With this acquisition, Health Karma will be uniquely equipped to meet the growing needs of the Small to Medium Businesses across the nation."

"Being one of the pioneers in preventive healthcare, I understand the power of empowering people to be responsible for their own health and wellbeing as well as the costs savings and increased productivity this provides to companies and organizations," said Dr. Ann Hawkins, Founder of 24hr Virtual Clinic. "This transaction allows us to capitalize on the distribution channels Health Karma established. Our collective efforts with the management team of MediXall makes the vision we have for our company a reality."
