For families

Who looks after Mom when you can't be there?

A doctor who answers when your parent calls, and keeps you informed.

When you live in another city, every phone call ends with the same worry. Merivane gives your parent a doctor who knows them well and answers when they call. With their permission, we keep you informed too.

What we hear most

The worries that keep adult children up at night.

"She says she's fine."

We notice what a phone call can't

Dr. Calloway sees your parent regularly and catches the small changes a ten minute visit misses.

"I don't know what the specialist said."

We read every report

We follow every referral, read every letter and explain it to both of you in plain English.

"If something happens, I'll find out last."

You hear from us the same day

With permission on file, we call you after a hospital visit, a fall or any major change.

How family updates work

Informed, without taking over.

01

Your parent chooses what to share

They sign a simple authorization naming you, and can change or withdraw it at any time.

02

You meet Dr. Calloway too

Join the meet and greet by video from wherever you live.

03

Updates that actually help

A short call or secure message after key visits, results and any hospital stay.

04

A plan for the hard moments

We help your family talk through wishes and care plans before they are urgent.

Your parent always stays in charge

Federal privacy law (HIPAA) means we can only share health information with family when the patient agrees. We help your parent complete the authorization at their first visit, and they can update or cancel it whenever they like.

"Mom fell in March. Dr. Calloway called me before the hospital did, and she was the one who explained what happened."

"My father is stubborn. He actually listens to her, because she takes the time to explain things properly."
