Dr. Graham Gardner, Co-Founder and CEO of Kyruus is passionate about patient care, and ensuring they get the care they need.
With the idea of a “Moneyball” approach to matching patients and providers, Graham transitioned from cardiology to co-founding and leading Kyruus, a digital health company that offers provider search and scheduling solutions.
He says he knew that there was a better way to match patients with the appropriate provider, and Kyruus’ system allows patients to enter medical symptoms and book appointments.
By helping declutter the scheduling process, allowing patients to self-schedule, and get to the provider they need, doctors can spend more time with patients, and patients get the help they need more efficiently.
Graham also shares several amazing stories that show his true drive to serve patients, increase #accesstocare and #healthequity.
