Our team
For us, it’s personal.
As a gay man and an Indian immigrant who grew up on Medicaid, I know the importance and challenges of finding clinicians that truly understand who we are. Cultural competence impacts every aspect of a patient’s health care journey, from how much they trust their clinicians, to the questions they ask, to their actual health outcomes. Every part is improved when clinicians deliver care centered around their patient’s identities.
— Gaurang Choksi, Violet Founder and CEO
Meet the team building health equity.
As a team of queer, BIPOC, and Disabled folks, all of us have identities that are important to our health care journeys. Prior to creating Violet, our founding team spent years building digital health companies like Oscar, Iora, and Tempest.
