round 1 in 10 women in the United States has polycystic ovarian syndrome, yet it took Carolyn Witte more than 3 years to have a doctor diagnose her with the disease — and even then she had to do a lot of the research herself. The disease, which sometimes causes a hormonal imbalance and affects metabolism, can also lead to fertility problems, diabetes and mood disorders.
Tia works on a membership model, where members pay around $150 a year to access the company’s clinics, the first of which opened in New York City in 2019. All of Tia’s doctors and nurses are employees, meaning members see the same care teams, who manage everything from annual wellness visits to behavioral health to acupuncture, and the clinic bills insurance. Patients have access to an app where they can chat with their care team, view their health record or schedule appointments.
“We can't just be this information front door and then refer women into the healthcare system that they hate. That's failing them. We need to actually become the healthcare system and actually change the way care is delivered.”itte and Yost didn’t set out to be in the business of delivering healthcare. After meeting as undergrads at Cornell, Witte went to work in marketing and branding at Google, while Yost went to a hedge fund and later moved to product management at a data startup.
