This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Richard Sztramko, Geriatrics and Internal Medicine professional to speak about his journey into entrepreneurship .as co- founder of Arya Health. Arya EHR (Electronic Health Record) and Handover, a cutting-edge health tech company rapidly expanding throughout Canada in hospitals and outpatient clinics. He has served as the Chief Medical Officer of a publicly traded remote chronic disease management company called TSX: V (RHT), and currently consults for US-based Kerna Health.
Dr. Richard Sztramko currently practices Geriatric and Internal Medicine at St. Peter’s and Juravinski Hospitals in Hamilton, Ontario. As well, he is an Assistant Professor at McMaster University.
We covered what led him to creating Arya Health with his co-founders Dr. Sam Gharbi , and Dr. Richard Vandegriend. How burnout played a part in this journey and how Arya Health is helping other medical professionals save more time and energy in their practice and operations.
