Sophia Yen is the CEO and co-founder of Pandia Health, a women-founded and women-led birth control delivery company. Pandia partners with pharmacies and doctors who specialize in women’s health to bring convenient, dignified and stress-free ways of accessing telehealth services.
In our conversation we talked about the goals of Pandia Health, and how abortion laws could potentially impact Sophia’s business. We also discuss how the idea for Pandia Health was born through Sophia’ practice as a clinical associate professor at Stanford, and why she thought birth control delivery company should be doctor-founded and led by women. Sophia also makes the case for physicians being able to practice medicine nationally not federally when they’re granted their license.
Sophia shares how she prepared for starting Pandia Health, and how she ended up distributing equity and roles among 6 founders initially. Sophia also discussed finding the first users and product-fit for her company, and the potential dangers of telemedicine abuse.
