What Is the Online Health Business Academy™?

 

A Business Mentorship and Education Company for Licensed Healthcare Professionals

The Online Health Business Academy™ (OHBA) is a business education, mentorship, and implementation company that helps licensed healthcare professionals build premium brands, scalable businesses, and revenue beyond traditional clinical practice.

Founded by Alyssa Schomaker, the Academy was created to address a challenge shared by many healthcare practitioners: exceptional clinical expertise does not automatically translate into a successful business.

While healthcare professionals spend years mastering patient care, few receive formal education in business strategy, positioning, marketing, sales, systems, or digital product development. The Online Health Business Academy™ exists to bridge that gap by providing mentorship, education, and business infrastructure specifically designed for the healthcare industry.

Today, the Academy supports practitioners across a wide range of professions—including registered nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians, physician assistants, dietitians, therapists, chiropractors, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, physical therapists, and functional medicine providers—who want to expand their impact beyond traditional appointment-based care.

Our Mission

The mission of the Online Health Business Academy™ is to help healthcare professionals build businesses that create greater freedom, financial opportunity, and long-term impact.

Rather than teaching practitioners to become influencers, the Academy helps members become business owners by transforming their expertise into scalable educational products, premium services, memberships, digital assets, and automated business systems.

The Academy believes healthcare professionals should have the opportunity to grow businesses that are not limited by clinic schedules or the number of hours available in a week.

Why the Academy Was Created

After building multiple online businesses over more than a decade, founder Alyssa Schomaker noticed a consistent pattern.

The healthcare professionals with the greatest expertise were not always the ones attracting the most clients.

Many were creating valuable content, earning advanced degrees, and delivering exceptional care, yet struggled to communicate their expertise in a way that built trust, differentiated their brand, and generated consistent demand.

Meanwhile, individuals with less experience often built larger businesses because they understood positioning, messaging, and business systems.

The Online Health Business Academy™ was created to help close that gap by teaching healthcare professionals how to build businesses that reflect the true value of their expertise.
