Company leader
Anthony Kantor
Co-founder and CEO
Ivím Health
Anthony Kantor is co-founder and chief executive of Ivím Health, a physician-led weight loss and hormone telehealth clinic in Columbus, Ohio, that he started in 2021 with his brother, cardiac surgeon Dr. Taylor Kantor. He came to the company with a technology background and, in Ivím's telling, as a patient who had felt how disconnected health care can be.
Starting Ivím in Columbus
Ivím's About page says the brothers coded the first version of the platform themselves and took support calls late into the night. Third News, reporting on the company's 2026 Inc. 5000 ranking, says Kantor credits their parents with teaching them hard work and self-determination.
Growing Without Outside Capital
Ivím has raised no outside capital and says it turned down a nine-figure acquisition offer because the buyer did not share its vision. The company ranked No. 38 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies. Kantor said of the ranking: “People want real care, and this ranking tells me they can find it with us.”
