ZocDoc, the doctor search and reservation service, which just raised a $3 million first round, has added two impressive names to its roster of investors: Salesforce.com CEO Marc Benioff and Amazon's (NSDQ: AMZN) Jeff Bezos (through his Bezos Expeditions) have added an unspecified amount to the round. The round, initially announced last month, was led by Khosla Ventures. In addition, ZocDoc says it's increasing its specialty areas from three to six, and releasing a Facebook app, allowing users to book doctors appointments through Facebook.
