Playhouse MD Launches on Amazon for Pediatric Wellness

LOS ANGELES—Playhouse MD, a health care brand focused on pediatric physical wellness through playtime, is now officially available on Amazon.

Partnering with McKesson Medical-Surgical, a subsidiary of McKesson Corporation and a medical distributor and online seller of medical supplies and health care solutions, Playhouse MD’s doctor-designed, kid-inspired medical devices are now available to millions of families across the country.

“We started Playhouse MD to transform the way families experience sick days by making play a central part of care,” says Michael Kamins, co-Founder and COO of Playhouse MD. “Our partnership with McKesson Medical-Surgical allows us to scale that mission and launching on Amazon unlocks an entirely new level of access and visibility. It enables us to reach families faster and expand our impact nationwide.”

Playhouse MD was created to make at-home care moments more engaging by blending clinical function with playful, character-led design to help kids build positive associations with health care.

The company said it is also the first play-based pediatric brand within McKesson Medical-Surgical’s portfolio, which includes more than 300,000 products. The company delivers e-commerce solutions for health, medical and wellness brands through Simply Medical, its marketplace acceleration group.

“We are always looking for innovative products to add to our portfolio. What Playhouse MD has created combines clinical integrity with an imaginative design and brings a fresh, meaningful approach to pediatric care,” said Stanton McComb, president of McKesson Medical-Surgical. “We are excited to be the exclusive distributor of Playhouse MD products on Amazon, helping to advance health care outcomes for families across the country.”
