On Launching A Successful Telehealth Platform And Going Through YC

Hi, I’m Alison Greenberg. CEO of Ruth Health, a company I co-founded with Audrey Wu.

Ruth Health is a telehealth clinic and care hub for prenatal and postpartum people. We provide one-on-one telehealth services and resources to support them in their journey from pregnancy to several years post-partum. These include pelvic training and recovery, lactation support, and c-section recovery—as well as a hub full of supporting resources.

We serve patients across the country by offering 30-minute sessions that are as easy to schedule as a work meeting. Think of it as adding a meeting to someone’s calendar at a time that best works for them.

Busy working parents make up the majority of our patients, and they need the flexibility that Ruth Health offers. Our goal is to increase the accessibility and affordability of care that makes pregnancy a little easier.

We work together with our patients through two phases in the pregnancy journey: helping them prepare for birth as well as the healing process after birth.

We’ve raised $3.1 million in venture capital to date, been selected for Y Combinator (S’21 batch), and we’re finalizing an affiliate partnership with one of the largest health insurance companies in America.
