About Coral Care | Our Story
Our Story

The system wasn't built for our kids. So we built something better.

We started Coral Care because no parent should have to wait months — or empty their savings — to get their child the specialist care they need.

It started with a question every parent knows: "Is my child okay?"

When my daughter was a baby, we noticed she wasn't moving the way she should. We did what any parent would — we reached out for help. What we found instead was a maze of waitlists, dead-ends, and costs that made our heads spin.

We felt helpless. Not because help didn't exist, but because the system made it nearly impossible to find. And the clock was ticking — early intervention matters most when children are youngest.

"Twenty percent of children have a developmental delay or disability. The families who need help most are the ones waiting longest."

I'd spent my career building products at digital health companies, and I couldn't stop thinking about why this was so broken. Public programs are overwhelmed. Multi-month waitlists are the norm. And parents are spending a fortune on care that should be accessible to every family.

So I built the company I wished had existed when we were searching. Coral Care connects families with exceptional pediatric specialists — speech therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapists — who come right to your home, accept your insurance, and are available when you need them.

Because getting your child the care they need shouldn't feel like a second full-time job.

Two sides of the same mission

The problems facing families and clinicians are deeply connected. We're solving both — because you can't fix one without the other.

Better access for families

Families who suspect their child has a developmental need face a broken system — months-long waitlists, fragmented referral processes, and costs that put care out of reach.

Coral Care removes those barriers. We connect families with licensed specialists who come to their homes, accept their insurance, and are available now.

  • In-home visits from licensed SLPs, OTs, and PTs
  • Insurance accepted — most families pay $0
  • Available in 1,500+ zip codes across 10+ states

Better careers for clinicians

Pediatric therapists are chronically under-supported — squeezed by low reimbursement rates, rigid schedules, high caseloads, and administrative burdens that pull them away from what they do best.

Coral Care gives clinicians autonomy, fair pay, and the chance to focus on clinical care while we handle the rest.

  • Set your own schedule and caseload
  • Competitive rates with consistent patient flow
  • Zero admin burden — we handle billing and insurance

Better access for families. Better careers for clinicians.
