Pomelo Care
Imagine if mothers had 24/7 access to prenatal care.
Pomelo Care is a virtual, multi-speciality medical practice that uses a value-based care model to address underlying risk factors to improve maternal and newborn health. By engaging patients early, conducting individualized risk assessments for poor pregnancy outcomes, and delivering coordinated, personalized virtual care, the Pomelo team aims to reduce healthcare spend and improve outcomes.
We invested in Pomelo’s June 2021 seed round after first getting to know founder Marta Bralic Kerns through Nat Turner and Flatiron Health, where she spent 7 years and was Senior VP of Business Development.
