A New Era of
Postpartum Care

Working in healthcare every so often we’d get asked to help a friend who is struggling in their postpartum journey. In that moment, every one of them needed guidance and answers from a trusted confidant.

When you have support, everything changes.

When you have support, everything changes.

We saw how many people needed someone who they could candidly tell about their needs: what to do, where to go, how to get there, what this feeling is or what those terms mean. And we knew we could help.

Drawing from our backgrounds as medical doctors, postpartum nurses, perinatal-trained therapists, and digital health experts, we created Phia Health to give postpartum caregivers the same “insider” experience. The opportunity to speak with another person—someone they know and trust, who knows them too—without spending a lifetime on hold. To get clear answers to important questions. To work with a team who’ll center their needs and desires, and challenge the old ways of doing things.

Phia Health is the new normal for postpartum care.

It’s time to remap the postpartum experience. Guided by our values, we’re working within existing systems and advocating for change, creating a new infrastructure that treats people as the priority and connects provider, payor, and patient every step of the way.

And we're not doing this alone

And we're not doing this alone

We want people to feel equipped for their journey. Phia Health brings doctors, health insurance companies, and patients together to create a better experience for everyone involved.


We believe that working together to help people get the care they need transforms the postpartum system for the better.
