Thesis

The best healthcare solutions emerge from teams that deeply understand real-world clinical challenges. We embed 650+ clinicians as partners in deal sourcing, diligence, and portfolio support. Unlike traditional VCs, we connect founders with authentic practitioners who understand unglamorous but deeply human healthcare problems.

Likely not a fit for

Founders chasing AI/ML buzzwords without clinical grounding. Teams ignoring clinical workflow realities. Solutions optimizing for clinician convenience over patient outcomes. Founders lacking healthcare domain expertise or unwilling to learn from practitioners.
