When you or someone you love is facing a health condition, the scariest part is often the not knowing.
- Not knowing what the diagnosis really means.
- Not knowing what questions to ask.
- Not knowing whether you're being heard or completely missed.
We built Inciteful Med for people in that place. The idea came from personal experience navigating uncertainty, fear, and a system that didn’t feel built to support us.
Honestly, we built Inciteful Med for ourselves.
But as we began sharing what we were doing, we realized how universal this feeling is. Everyone knows someone who’s sick, scared, and searching for answers.
We’ve received a lot of advice about how to fit more neatly into the healthcare system. But that system wasn’t working for us, so why would we want to conform to it? That’s not a criticism of the many professionals who’ve dedicated their lives to caring for others. But with our skills and experiences as tech professionals and entrepreneurs, we believe real change in healthcare will come from the patients themselves.
There’s never been a better moment for patient-led change in healthcare: information is more accessible than ever, and the tools that enable choice, control and transparency are within reach.
We’re excited to help tip the scales of power imbalance and play even a small part in making healthcare feel more human, informed, and empowering.
