Today we’d like to introduce you to Carmen Mohan.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I started HelloHealth because women I loved who I wanted to see succeed were not getting care they needed. They suffered from at least one of three things:
1. Worry
2. Pain
Or
3. Fatigue
Women were worrying they were not doing enough to protect their health.They were tolerating pain or discomfort like knee aches or sore throats but trying to ignore the symptoms. And women were pushing through feeling tired or fatigued.
As we began to address these problems in clinic, we realized that women in this particular subset encountered executive realities that derailed the best-laid plans. These executive realities often include long work hours, travel, and high-stakes performances.
So, to succeed in reaching health goals, executive women need help building momentum not once but many times. In other words, they have to get restarted toward their goals even more frequently than the typical woman. At HelloHealth, we consider this a skill called Mastering the Restart.
I founded HelloHealth to help women in leadership, and more specifically women of color, achieve their career goals. Physical and brain health are essential in helping women lead with confidence and reach their aspirational goals. This is why women with ambition who seek executive roles must take a systematic approach to achieving and maintaining personal health, synthesizing practical health information, selecting appropriate tools, and accessing trustworthy advice.
HelloHealth is a patient-first, physician-directed tele-wellness clinic supported by accessible, professional, and integrated care team management. We believe in working well in all ways – mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Our programs are crafted in direct response to what our members need and are designed to ensure each member has a plan for personal health transformation. All of our personal plans involve body-mind stress management and a holistic approach to wellness. Our brain health program uses an integrated approach to stress management. Team members include physicians and licensed professional counselors. Our approach is evidenced based and systematic.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
We are a patient-first, physician-directed tele-wellness clinic supported by a friendly, professional, integrated care team. At HelloHealth, we believe in working well in all ways—mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Our programs have been crafted in direct response to what our members need and are designed to engage each member on a personal health transformation.
As a company, our main obstacle is awareness — people just don’t believe healthcare can be wellcare. Distilling our message so potential clinic members understand what personal health transformation can look like for them is a challenge.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
HelloHealth is a patient-first, physician-directed tele-wellness clinic supported by a friendly, professional, integrated care team.
At HelloHealth, we’re in the business of personal health transformation. We offer personalized programs to help our members experience an enhanced sense of resiliency. Our integrated care model means the healthcare team helps members set good goals and implement their self-care plan.
Our process for personal health transformation takes members from trending toward burnout to getting the right inputs into their schedule so they begin to feel clear and centered. Once they’ve been freed from overwhelm, we help them take the best approach toward feeling an enhanced sense of resiliency.
All of our personal plans involve body-mind stress management and a holistic approach to care.
What’s different about our clinicians? In addition to providing great medical care, your provider acts as a timekeeper, note-taker, and safe space holder. We pride ourselves on listening deeply so we understand members’ needs.
We help identify and prioritize members’ goals and then partner with them to achieve those goals.
Our interdisciplinary care model means each care plan is comprehensive. Doctors, talk therapists, and fitness professionals work together to prescribe diet, physical exercise, and introspection along with conventional medications and supplements as needed.
While we primarily rely on video visits due to their popularity with our current members, in-person assessments and consultations are available to those in the metro-Atlanta area.
We offer three signature programs: 1. Stress Management 2. Weight Loss 3. Proactive Care. Within each of these programs, members receive an annual lifestyle assessment and recommendations for how to improve across eight dimensions of overall health.
We’d love to hear about how you think about risk taking?
Courage will always be required to grow and taking on risk is required to lead through these times. It was a major personal risk for me to leave a guaranteed physician’s salary to instead start my own practice. I couldn’t be happier I did. Now at HelloHealth, I have the opportunity to design evidence-based programs that promote worthwhile gains in my patients’ lives. I love how responsive the clinic is to our members’ needs. The personal rewards for taking risk usually can’t be seen prospectively, but I can tell you it is worth the struggles and hard work for me to be able to care for patients in this way.
