Our take
Summer Health is a pediatric care company that enables parents to get answers about their child's health, from an expert, in 15 minutes. A welcome departure from symptom checkers, which are infamous for panicking parents rather than informing them, the company's subscription service supplies access to certified pediatricians who supply more personalized answers.
The service works via text, with advice available 24/7, and also allows users to start and request chats with specific experts. This makes it a great hub for both emergencies and wider questions. Its a worthwhile proposition, and Summer Health has attracted significant investment. The latest round will support both the expansion of distribution channels and its service offerings.
