Dr. Mayer launched Cureatr in 2011 while a resident physician at The Mount Sinai Medical Center with Alex Khomenko, the former Director of Engineering at 23andMe, a was soon joined by team of physicians trained at Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons and Mount Sinai, and technologists from Stanford, PayPal, and Bell Labs.

'The demand for enterprise-grade mobile and care coordination tools in healthcare is growing faster than any other market segment. Cureatr's unique platform and clinician-led team address the growing communication breakdowns and workflow inefficiencies in the delivery of care that result in preventable medical errors and poor outcomes, as well as significant financial losses and provider and patient frustration. We are excited to join their team,' said Brandon H. Hull.

'We feel Cureatr represents a major disruptive force in the advancement of mobile care coordination and are excited to further our investment in the Company, who we have gotten to know well as a seed investor through the New York Digital Health Accelerator,' said Todd T. Pietri.

'As a physician delivering care in a busy specialty hospital, the ability to rapidly and effectively communicate among the members of my care teams is paramount,' said Dr. Andrew Nightingale, a resident at the New York Eye & Ear Infirmary. 'Until now, there simply were not adequate tools available to providers to deal with the day-to-day challenges of treating patients and navigating the many complex clinical workflows at a hospital. Cureatr has delivered that solution to the market.'
