Built with patients.
Partnered for impact.
GereNetCo is a patient-founded initiative. Every partnership we pursue begins with one question: does this help the people in the chair?
Why this was built from the inside
GereNetCo was founded by Gerey, a hemodialysis patient who has been receiving treatment three times a week since 2021 while awaiting a kidney transplant. He did not build these tools from research or theory. He built them from experience — from the chair, from years of observing what patients needed and what did not exist to serve them.
That lived experience drives every product decision at GereNetCo. ChairCalm was built because patients needed a way to track how they feel, flag their nurse, and keep caregivers informed during treatment. Patient Advocate One was built because patients needed plain-language education they could trust, in English and Spanish, without a medical degree to understand it.
Gerey also serves on a patient advisory board, where he brings the same conviction he brings to every product: meaningful progress in dialysis care happens when patients are part of the conversation, not just the subject of it.
