About Us

Through his extensive work at rural and critical access hospitals, Dr. Desmond Wah was able to observe firsthand the obstacles and pitfalls with the current inpatient medicine solutions these hospitals were being offered. He also experienced many of the frustrations that physicians in those hospitals and communities faced. This eventually led to a desire to develop a better solution that emphasizes synergy between all parties involved and working towards mutual success.
