A Founder's all-India road trip to Transform and Personalize Healthcare. 29 states, 2 union territories, 31 cities, 12,144 km in 20 days.
With over two years of extensive groundwork in India, we aim to make healthcare accessible to everyone across the world through custom health plans and digital technology.
Our digital healthcare and wearable technology promise to seamlessly integrate into every person's life, empowering people to be more self-administrable with their healthcare.
Our research firm, Shark Dreams, is focused extensively on innovative research towards healthcare technology.
We came up with two strategies: Partner with the Government of India and make it mandatory, and partner with the country's top health insurance provider to save money for both the provider and policyholder.
One of the biggest discrepancies in the healthcare industry is the presence of sample data — the inability of government and private bodies to report updated and accurate data.
In the absence of accurate data, it is often very difficult to understand the healthcare problems faced by the second largest population in the country. Over two years, we worked extensively in the sister states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where we uncovered three major shortcomings — Awareness, Accessibility, Affordability.
"Care must be free from discrimination — age, gender, occupation, economic status, and even a pre-existing health condition. I've witnessed members of families running from pillar to post, looking for a way to ease the burden of a massive health bill while one of their loved ones was battling a serious condition in the hospital."
— Dharma Teja Nukarapu, Founder & CEO, SharkDreams
From leaving his family in the US to serve India, to surviving a mob of 300+ people, to unpaid receipts and nearly losing everything — the founder's journey of perseverance.
We are not promoting a service; we are promoting a conscious and healthy lifestyle through custom healthcare services.
Our technology gives access to patients and providers about the information required to transform their healthcare experience to individual care.
We aim to personalize healthcare with our revolutionary digital technology, empowering individuals with a health coverage based on their lifestyle, helping them to make better decisions.
"Fellow offers personalized healthcare to every individual, making it a lifestyle change."
We are rapidly building accessible and affordable healthcare systems across India through collaboration with the second largest insurance provider in the country.
