Meet the team that delivers you the power of preventive healthcare 

After watching patient after patient show up too late when meds couldn’t help, the infection had spread, or an ER visit was their only option — our team realized something had to change.  So we built joepill.com to flip the script.  It’s preventive care — Zpaks, UTI meds, Valtrex and more – delivered before you’re sick.  Because by the time most people act, it’s already too late.

Meet the pharmacist

Joseph DeBons, PharmD

After completing undergraduate work at the University of Texas, I graduated from Texas Tech School of Pharmacy with a PharmD degree in 2001.  I love my profession of pharmacy.  In my free time, I enjoy playing chess and golf.   Both games require me to carefully plan ahead to be successful.   Preventive healthcare is similar and requires careful planning for true success. 

For too long, medical care has remained focused on addressing patients after they get sick.  We are happy to be at the forefront of preventive care and wellness.  I wanted to develop joepill.com for all patients so that they can voice their health concerns privately and improve their lives in a complete way before they get sick!  

The name “Joe Pill” was chosen because that’s what my patients call me…  and it is way easier to spell, say and remember than my real last name…  DeBons.

Our Story

Our preventive medicine story began 7 years ago.   The holidays were quickly approaching and I had plans to travel to Dallas and celebrate it together with family.  My wife’s grandmother was very upset because she had endured a hard year of various medical problems:   joint pain, an earache, an eye infection, strep throat, nausea, and a skin infection.  She decided that she would be taking too big of a health risk to travel and made plans to stay home.   She was upset that she would be alone for the holidays and would not be able to see her family.  I reached out to a local physician and explained the situation.   The physician kindly approved a preventive care pack for her and I prepared it so that she could easily travel with it.  That same grandmother (age 95) travels today, 7 years later, with her Joe Pill Prescription Pack!  Today, we are based in beautiful Marble Falls, Texas and are proud to serve the entire great state of Texas.  We hope you experience the power of preventive healthcare.

joepill.com is now more than a simple telehealth startup.  Today, we are a leading preventive medicine platform and direct-to-consumer provider.  We are focused on changing the paradigm of outdated, and germ-filled traditional waiting rooms.  Strategic partnerships are being formed with our preventive medicine leadership.  Our patented preventive care packs serve as an important modernized solution in healthcare.

Preventive Health Care

Although preventive health care has been recognized in the United States since 1954, preventive healthcare is now poised to gain traction in society.  The goal of preventive medicine is to promote health and well being and to work to prevent illness, disability, and death.  Today, we commonly see preventive health in practice.  Taking antibiotics before dental visits, taking bowel preps before a colonoscopy, taking medications to treat obesity, receiving immunizations, getting malaria treatment prior to traveling, taking blood thinners to prevent heart disease and stroke, injecting insulin to keep glucose levels in check, and taking medications to treat bone disease and fractures are all commonly seen preventive medicine options provided today.  Joe Pill® will be at the forefront of improving and expanding the preventive health of Americans.  There is definitely a need to accommodate preventive health patients.  Our approach appeals to traveling patients, patients living in underserved areas, patients who fear waiting rooms full of other sick patients, patients who cannot leave work or home easily, patients traveling to foreign countries that do not handle affordable or safe medication that is approved by the FDA, and more.  Not everyone is approved for a Joe Pill Prescription Pack™, make an appointment today to see if you qualify for quality preventive healthcare!  Our favorite part about offering preventive healthcare is hearing how it has improved our patients’ lives.  The stories are incredible:  from illness treated at exotic travel destinations to lifesaving medical treatment events.
