We are leveraging communication science to improve health and care by focusing on what matters, bringing new meaning to ‘personalized’ medicine,” stated Gregory Makoul PhD, MS, founder and CEO of PatientWisdom, Inc.
The company will use the Series A funding to meet growing market demand for tools that truly engage patients, providers, and community members.
