Episode 4: Women’s Health Empowerment with Sera from Clay Health

“Hi! I'm Sera. I am dedicated to making healthcare more personal because I know that we are more than patients.

I spent most of my 20’s & 30’s recovering from a rare disease diagnosis and navigating a healthcare system that did not know what to do with me. To recover, I built a comprehensive, physical and emotional well-being healthcare team to guide my journey.

As I began to heal, I used my financial services, healthcare administration, and nonprofit career experience to build better healthcare solutions. First, I started by forging solutions via patient advocacy and fundraising for scientific research and, ultimately, building my first businesses in the health and well-being space. I came to believe the most significant way I could impact the healthcare experience was to work directly with hospital systems and private practice physicians. I built a consulting practice to guide providers through improving their business structures, patient experiences, and finances. Through it all, I have seen the broken parts of our healthcare delivery for patients and providers and the deep desire to get it right.

Now, I am using the collective patient and provider experiences and incredible people I have met on my journey to build Clay Health.

I hope you'll join me.”
