What our patients get
Dedicated care teams
Unlimited access to a team of doctors, midwives, nurses, dietitians, therapists, lactation experts, and more. You’ll keep your in-person OB-GYN or midwife, but your Pomelo team is here for you between appointments (or whenever you need us!).
Customized care plans
We work with you to create a care plan designed just for you, based on your health and your unique goals. Your care team will support you every step of the way, whether it’s meeting with a dietitian, joining a virtual group with other expecting parents, or getting 1:1 support for conditions like gestational diabetes.
24/7 availability at $0 cost
No more rushed appointments or waiting rooms. Meet and message with your care team anytime (including nights and weekends) via text, phone, or video. Pomelo is free to members of participating health plans or participating employers (yes, free!).
