Helping Families Become the Central Resource in their Health Journey
Our Story
We all know someone who struggles with a chronic condition. At Adhera Health, we understand the profound impact that chronic conditions have on individuals and their families. Our story is rooted in personal experiences—watching the people we care about battle these relentless conditions. It was this emotional connection and heartfelt empathy that inspired us to create Adhera Health. We are driven by our love and compassion, dedicated to making a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
Our founders, Ricardo C. Berrios and Luis Fernández-Luque, have witnessed firsthand the struggles and triumphs of living with a chronic condition. Their personal experiences fueled their passion to make a difference. They saw an opportunity to harness technology to support families affected by life-changing diagnoses, reaching out to parents and their children with empathy and innovation.
Luis, with a PhD in Computer Science focusing on health social media, and Ricardo, a seasoned entrepreneur who has successfully launched several companies alongside his extensive sales and marketing experience in the U.S., combined their expertise to create something extraordinary. Together, they crafted Adhera Health, a solution born from their hearts to empower the pediatric chronic illness community.
Join us in our mission to bring hope, strength, and positive change to families touched by chronic conditions.
