Neura Health is a venture-backed startup with a mission to improve access and quality of care for neurologic conditions. Our longer-term vision is to find cures by learning from the experience of every neurology patient. We were inspired to create Neura because of two critical problems in neurology: access and quality. Access is subpar because there are not enough neurologists in the country, so the average wait time is 4-6 months, with patients often having to travel hours to access the right specialist. Quality is subpar because diagnoses are based on self-reported data with significant recency bias.
Neura has raised $10.3m in funding from top investors including Next Play Ventures (the fund of former LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner), Pear VC (Gusto, DoorDash), KDT (Path.AI), and Norwest Venture Partners (Calm, Talkspace).
Neura serves major neurological conditions including headache, migraine, sleep disorders, epilepsy, neurological pain, concussion, multiple sclerosis, and others. Our platform provides all the tools needed for a highly effective patient-provider relationship, with a goal to improve outcomes and reduce costs. Patients receive an engaging mobile app with a dedicated concierge to ensure that all their care needs are met.
At Neura Health, we are constantly looking for providers who want to work at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and some of the hardest problems in healthcare. Currently, we are looking for an advisor who is well-versed in the evidence-based treatment of dementia and who is empathetic, compassionate, mission-driven, collaborative, and results-oriented.

What We Do
130 million Americans live with a chronic neurological issue, and neurology is a top 5 spend category for self-insured employers. Neura Health is a comprehensive neurological care program providing best-in-class care virtually, which:
- Reduces medical claims costs
- Supports workforce health equity for invisible illness
- Reduces employee absenteeism and presenteeism
- Improves employee satisfaction and retention
Neura Health provides unparalleled, proactive care for headache/migraine and sleep disorders, neurological pain, epilepsy, concussion and more.
Staffed by top board-certified neurologists and sub-specialists, Neura Health connects patients with a neurologist video visit within a week, instead of months-long waitlists that local providers typically have. Patients receive a personalized treatment plan, a dedicated health coach, and a concierge team to manage their neurological disease.
Neura Health’s quality care improves quality of life for people with neurological illness. Our clinical outcomes for headache and migraine were published in the peer-reviewed medical journal Headache in 2022.
