Whole-Person Care
for the Years
That Ask the Most
Internists who chose aging as their specialty — sitting with patients long enough to hear the full story, and working across every specialist to make sense of it.
What Makes Tend Different
One physician who reads every chart
Your cardiologist and neurologist may never speak. Tend's geriatricians review every record — not just the referral — before your first appointment. The full picture, held by one person.
Medication reconciliation as a first act
The average older adult sees seven physicians. Each prescribes. Few review what the others prescribed. We begin every new patient relationship with a complete medication review — looking for interactions, redundancies, and doses meant for younger bodies.
Appointments measured in time, not throughput
A 75-minute first visit. Enough time for the story behind the story — the fall that happened when no one was watching, the medication the patient stopped taking because it made them feel strange.
Resources & Voices
Three specialists in eighteen months. Each one adjusted his medications. Nobody was looking at the list as a whole. The Tend team caught an interaction between his blood pressure medication and a new sleep aid that was causing the dizziness we'd been told was just aging. It wasn't aging.

Daughter, caring for her 81-year-old father in Philadelphia
I served 22 years. I have conditions from three different eras of my life and I see doctors at the VA, a cardiologist downtown, and a neurologist my wife found. For the first time someone sat with me and said — let me understand all of this together. Not just the knee. All of it.
Robert V.
Veteran, age 74, Pittsburgh
After the hospital stay, we didn't know who to call. Her cardiologist said follow up with her GP. Her GP said follow up with cardiology. We were the ones in the middle, trying to understand discharge instructions written for people with medical degrees. Tend became the person we could actually call.

Retired couple, managing care together, age 71 and 73
As a discharge planner, I've referred to a lot of practices. What's different here is that someone actually calls back, actually reads the discharge summary, and actually coordinates. That's rarer than it should be.
