NiaHealth

My journey into mission-driven work began back in high school when I co-founded a charitable organization. I quickly realized that inspiring volunteers and making a real impact was far more fulfilling than just providing employment. Fast forward to today, and that same passion fuels my experience at NiaHealth. Just two weeks in, a new team member noted the unique “je ne sais quoi” of our organization. It was their first encounter with a truly mission-driven team. At NiaHealth, we’re dedicated to finding people who are enthusiastic about elevating health for humanity. We seek team members who are excited to align their personal missions with our collective goals. Don’t get me wrong, the work is demanding. But the reward of seeing your efforts make a tangible difference in someone's life is unparalleled. I’m feeling fortunate to be part of a team that is truly committed to making an impact. #missiondriven #impact Mike Goss, CFA Saif Uddin Mahmud Tanya ter Keurs Fletcher Han Jimena Vega Dr Robin Brown Yoyo Yang

Private healthcare providers are often rightly criticized for encouraging unnecessary testing. When business models are based on charging patients for tests, it's hardly surprising that private providers are incentivized to add ever increasing tests to their panels. At NiaHealth, we take a different approach. Our panel has been carefully selected to only include markers that can directly guide preventative measures. Where others collect data for the sake of data, we focus on collecting useful insights. This means that our list of tests isn’t as long as some of our competitors but that allows us to keep a low price point. The rich can always access more tests but we believe in actionable health insights for everyone. #evidencebasedhealthcare #toptierhealthcareforall  

At NiaHealth, we believe that design matters. In healthcare, when products are designed to delight—simple and user-friendly (the way we expect it when we call an Uber, order on Amazon, or use our suite of Apple products), they can drive life-changing results. I’m talking: someone loses 40 pounds in 3 months, another person kicks a decades-long smoking habit, and others finally start taking that vitamin D they’ve been putting off.   In the Canadian public healthcare system today, patients get stuck with incomprehensible lab reports and are often don’t even see their results if “everything is normal”. Even the wealthy are paying $2500 or more for executive health assessments and receive jargon-filled 50-page PDFs with no actionable steps. That's a tough sell. At NiaHealth, we are seeing firsthand that intuitive, simple yet comprehensive design empowers users to better understand, act, and ultimately take ownership of their health in ways they never imagined.

In a world where technology aims to automate and simplify healthcare, the clinician's role at NiaHealth remains crucial and deeply personalized. While many competitors focus on removing clinicians from the equation, we believe they will continue to play a key role in primary prevention, with our tech enhancing their efficiency. Every report at NiaHealth undergoes thorough review by clinicians, not just for medical accuracy but for its relevance to each individual patient. Understanding the person behind the data is central to our approach. Our process involves understanding the patient's life—considering their priorities, motivations, and obstacles. This empathetic approach helps us tailor healthcare strategies that truly resonate with their unique circumstances. We also offer clinician consultations, recognizing that for some the human touch is integral to understanding their health and taking action. Our rigorous review reflects the robustness of our medical knowledge, ensuring decisions are made with utmost care and personalization. We continuously ask: does our advice connect with the patient? Have we grasped their needs beyond the data? This is where the art of medicine lies, in challenging assumptions and adapting decisions to best serve patients’ goals. In a digital era, human interaction remains essential. At NiaHealth, we blend advanced technology with compassionate care, providing not only precise medical insights but also the empathy and understanding that only personal interaction can offer. #clinicianintheloop #futureofmedicine #proactivehealth

As a co-founder of a health-tech company in Canada, I'm driven by a simple yet powerful belief: optimal health shouldn't be a privilege—it should be accessible to all Canadians. Our initial vision for NiaHealth was to offer an alternative to the traditional executive health assessments. We wanted to streamline the diagnostic process, cut through the noise of unnecessary tests, and bring down costs. To our surprise, we’ve found that about 10% of our clients had previously used executive health services and discovered that our approach isn’t just comparable—it’s often a superior, more insightful, and cost-effective solution. This realization led us to explore why there was such a significant gap between conventional executive health services and what we offer. What we found was eye-opening. At NiaHealth, we focus on evidence-based diagnostics like blood tests, VO2 max assessments, and DEXA scans to provide comprehensive, tailored insights into your health. Our services are rooted in the latest scientific research, ensuring that we offer more accurate and actionable information than traditional methods. And we do all this with a commitment to convenience, offering services that you can access from the comfort of your home or office. The traditional executive health model in Canada has long combined basic primary care with high-cost, specialized assessments, often resulting in minimal health benefits for a high price. At NiaHealth, we challenge this outdated model by offering a personalized, proactive healthcare experience that’s both accessible and inclusive. We’re on an exciting journey as we work to redefine healthcare for all Canadians, making it truly accessible for everyone. #proactivehealth #healthtech #healthcareforall

Navigating Canada's diverse clinical guidelines to deliver effective, evidence-based healthcare is a major challenge for clinicians. Keeping up with the latest research isn't just difficult—it's crucial for providing consistent, high-quality care. Unfortunately, this often results in noticeable differences in patient experiences. At NiaHealth, we're transforming healthcare by ensuring every clinician and patient has immediate access to the latest evidence-based practices. Dr Robin Brown MD, our Oxford-educated Head of Clinical Research, and his team continuously evaluate new research to enhance longevity and wellness for all our clients. Each recommendation undergoes rigorous review by our diverse Canadian physician panel to ensure it meets clinical standards. This focused approach enables us to quickly integrate innovations that benefit all our clients. This commitment means every client receives optimal care every time. Our dedication to finding the most effective tools for managing longevity and wellness isn't just about efficiency—it's about improving care quality without increasing costs. By integrating advanced testing and technology, we empower clinicians to serve more patients effectively and stay at the forefront of healthcare innovation. Join us at NiaHealth to simplify healthcare, support clinicians, and ensure every patient receives top-notch care based on the latest evidence. #healthtech #proactivehealth #longevity

Thrilled to have Robin leading the charge on our evidence base and clinical approach. Welcome to the team Robin!

Nurse Practitioners are not just essential—they're leading the charge towards a healthier tomorrow. Even more so in today's rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, where physician resources are stretched thin and proactive care is increasingly vital. Nurse Practitioners are fundamentally nurses at heart. They are trained with a holistic perspective on health, focusing extensively on personalized preventive care that addresses health concerns at their source. NPs are defined by their ability to provide services such as diagnosing, prescribing and ordering tests, without losing what makes them nurses: providing comprehensive, compassionate care in order to promote health and prevent illness. At NiaHealth, our NPs are not just integral to our team but are leading the charge in delivering innovative and comprehensive care. Tanya ter Keurs, a visionary leader within our clinical team with over a decade of experience, embodies our commitment to patient-centered health practices. From her roots in rural family practice to spearheading team-based-care clinics, Tanya's journey reflects her dedication to holistic and preventive care. At NiaHealth, we take pride in empowering NPs like Tanya ter Keurs, who elevate healthcare standards daily. Collaborating closely with physicians and experts, our NPs play a crucial role in optimizing wellness and preventing diseases. Together, we're forging a path towards a healthier future through innovation, compassion, and dedication to patient care. We love our physicians AND are betting big on NPs for our future. #proactivehealth #nursepractitioners #futureofhealthcare

In 2015, at age 22, I began my career as a health tech entrepreneur by living in 3 nursing homes for a year, developing a product to enhance residents’ quality of life. Today, I am dedicated to ensuring individuals prevent chronic disease and prolong their healthspans for as long as possible. Here’s why my co-founders Mike Goss, CFA, Saif Uddin Mahmud and I are building NiaHealth, a digital-first proactive healthcare platform built in Canada. In an era where we enjoy rapid, high-quality services at increasingly affordable rates across almost every facet of life, healthcare remains a glaring exception. Our healthcare system faces escalating disease rates, soaring costs, and limited accessibility, highlighting an urgent demand for proactive, preventative care solutions. Recognizing the critical need for change, we drew inspiration from Peter Attia’s book "Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity" and other thought leaders such as Mark Hyman, Andrew Huberman, etc.. This resonated deeply with our vision, prompting the birth of NiaHealth. Named after Sardinia, a renowned Blue Zone synonymous with longevity—a subject I had previously studied—our platform is dedicated to empowering individuals through accessible, proactive health management. At NiaHealth, we offer convenient home or office blood draws, analysis of up to 50+ healthspan-related biomarkers, and personalized health reports with actionable insights. What sets us apart is our commitment to a seamless user experience, oversight by health experts, and tailored concierge services. In addition, we provide other diagnostics such as VO2 max tests and DEXA scans, ensuring comprehensive insights into health and fitness levels. We are just beginning our journey at NiaHealth, driven by a shared commitment to elevate health for humanity. #proactivemedicine #healthspan #longevity #healthtech

1 in 5 people lack access to a primary care provider in Canada. For those that do have one, visits typically last just 15 minutes and only 3% of physician time is focused on prevention. It’s clear our healthcare system is in need of a paradigm shift. At NiaHealth, we're not just talking about change—we're leading the charge. In serving hundreds of customers over the past few months, we’ve witnessed firsthand the struggles of individuals without access to proactive healthcare, highlighting the limitations of the current system. We’ve empowered these individuals to own their personal health journeys. Our goal is to build a world where everyone possesses the tools and knowledge to autonomously manage their well-being. NiaHealth is forging a future where healthcare is not merely reactive but proactive, personalized, and empowering. A future where you can access at-home blood testing and receive expert guidance to prevent diseases and optimize your health. Proactive care isn't just a trend—it's the future of healthcare. #proactivehealth #longevity #futureofprimarycare
