Initial Evaluation Clinical Exercise Physiologist

About Us

Carda Rehab addresses the pain point that only 10% of qualifying Cardiac and Pulmonary patients attend rehab, leading to complications and at least $190B in costs. At Carda Health, we’ve reimagined rehab by offering an engaging, compassionate, and life-saving remote rehabilitation program.

We are a team of clinicians, data scientists, mathematicians, and repeat entrepreneurs—united by the belief that technology and data, when applied ethically and compassionately, can transform lives and disrupt entrenched industries. Founded by two Wharton friends with a shared family history of heart disease, Carda works with top-ranked hospitals and innovative insurers. We’re backed by leading seed investors who have supported companies like Livongo, Mammoth Biosciences, and Ro.
