Dr. Mary Claire Haver Takes Charge as Chief AgeWell Officer at Midi Health
Midi Health, the forefront of virtual healthcare tailored for women, has made a significant move by appointing Dr. Mary Claire Haver, noted for her expertise in menopause and women's longevity, as its inaugural Chief AgeWell Officer. This decision reflects Midi's unwavering commitment to provide proactive and evidence-based healthcare specifically designed for women through all stages of life.
In her new role, Dr. Haver is set to work closely with the clinical team at Midi Health to elevate the AgeWell platform. This innovative model is uniquely structured to integrate vital aspects of women's health care, including the management of menopause, metabolic health, brain health, and cardiovascular well-being. By emphasizing preventative measures, Midi Health seeks to address the primary health risks facing women, which include heart disease, cognitive decline, and bone loss, thereby advocating for a holistic approach that promotes longevity and quality of life.
Joanna Strober, the CEO and co-founder of Midi Health, expressed her enthusiasm by asserting that women's biology is often overlooked in traditional longevity care, particularly during midlife. The partnership with Dr. Haver underscores Midi's objective to extend healthspan rather than just lifespan, ensuring that healthcare is both accessible and tailored to the complexities of women's bodies and lifestyles.
Dr. Mary Claire Haver comes with a rich background in obstetrics and gynecology, holding board certifications and specializing in menopause. As a certified Culinary Medicine Specialist and adjunct associate professor at The University of Texas Medical Branch, Dr. Haver has been a transformative figure in women's midlife health care. She previously founded 'The Pause Life,' an educational resource helping women navigate the intricacies of perimenopause and menopause through various platforms, including best-selling books and her podcast 'unPaused.' Her influence extends beyond clinical practices as she addresses widespread disparities in women's health education and care protocols.
In her statement, Dr. Haver articulated her passion, saying, "I have spent my career advocating for women to receive the science-backed, no-nonsense guidance they deserve. I chose to partner with Midi Health because they are the only platform with the scale and medical rigor to deliver the kind of care women deserve, regardless of their zip codes." This commitment to proactive and preventative care aligns perfectly with Midi Health's vision for establishing a comprehensive and trustworthy women’s health platform.
As the nation’s fastest-growing women’s telehealth service, Midi Health not only focuses on managing menopause but also seeks to fill critical health gaps women encounter at various ages and stages of life. The appointment of Dr. Haver as the Chief AgeWell Officer solidifies this mission, promising to redefine care standards and offer women the essential support they need for a healthier future.
With these advancements, Midi Health is poised to lead in creating a healthcare environment where women's specific health needs are not only recognized but prioritized. Through a commitment to preventative measures, continual education, and evidence-based interventions, Midi aims to shift the paradigm of women's health, solidifying a future where every woman feels empowered and equipped to manage her health proactively.
