“We founded Partum Health in 2021 with the goal of establishing a new standard of care for American families. The data on maternal health outcomes in the U.S. is clear – our healthcare system falls short in meeting the needs of birthing individuals and their families, despite significant expenditure and pressure on OBs and midwives. It’s time for families to benefit from the support of a multidisciplinary team of experts who can prevent and manage common complications that arise from fertility through postpartum.” Meghan Doyle, Co-Founder and CEO of Partum Health
