Gemeinsam für eine bessere Versorgung chronisch kranker Menschen – dafür habe ich mein Unternehmen Oska Health gegründet.
Nach zehn Jahren in der Gesundheitsbranche, unter anderem als Director of Digital Products bei Fresenius Medical Care, kenne ich die Herausforderungen der Gesundheitsversorgung aus erster Hand.
Trotz explodierender Gesundheitskosten ist die Behandlung von Nierenerkrankungen seit Jahrzehnten in einer Zeitkapsel gefangen. Daten zeigen, dass Änderungen des Lebensstils Komplikationen verhindern. Das Problem: Die meisten Patient:innen setzen diese Maßnahmen nicht um. 50 % nehmen ihre Medikamente nicht regelmäßig ein. Nicht wegen fehlendem Willen – sondern wegen fehlender Unterstützung.
Seit 2022 arbeite ich mit den besten Leuten der Branche zusammen, um diese Versorgungslücke zu schließen.
Mit geschulten Gesundheitsberater:innen unterstützen wir Patient:innen per Telefon, Video oder Chat bei Fragen zu Ernährung, Bewegung und Medikamenten. Denn für eine bessere Lebensqualität mit einer chronischen Krankheit ist der Alltag entscheidend.

Entrepreneurship was sparked in me at 17 when I started my first business - a digital product studio. The flame continued to burn through university, igniting my first venture-backed business: an online appointment booking portal.
My path took me into the corporate world and I found my calling in healthcare. I built and led the digital product division for Fresenius Medical Care in EMEA, a titan in kidney care. I worked with incredible people to create digital products that changed the lives of dialysis patients and completed an Executive MBA at the University of St. Gallen (HSG). It was a deep dive into general management and the challenges and opportunities of healthcare.
Two thoughts kept coming up during my Fresenius journey: My entrepreneurial spirit and the untapped potential of technology in kidney care. These thoughts have become the heartbeat of Oska Health.
Despite skyrocketing healthcare costs, the management of early-stage kidney disease has been stuck in a time capsule for decades. Data tells us that lifestyle changes can slow disease progression and prevent costly complications. Yet patients struggle to make these changes. This care gap is ready for disruption.
Since 2022, I've been working with the best people in the industry to close this gap. We're painting a future where chronic care isn't episodic. It's continuous, hybrid, with digital tools bridging the gaps between doctor visits.
I feel fortunate to be part of this mission.
Let's redefine chronic care together.
