PeerWell

PeerWell developed a digital health platform focused on musculoskeletal care, connecting patients with coordinated virtual support across pain management, surgery avoidance, preoperative preparation, and postoperative recovery. Its patient-facing mobile app combined health education, physical therapy, mindfulness, nutrition, pain-management guidance, and behavioral-health support. Smartphone-based range-of-motion measurement, mobility tracking, augmented-reality home assessments, and machine-learning risk analysis gave patients and care teams timely clinical information without requiring specialized hardware or frequent travel.

PeerWell also operated a virtual clinical practice that connected patients with physical therapists, occupational therapists, behavioral-health specialists, registered dietitians, and nurse case managers through video visits. The company was founded in San Francisco in 2015 and was acquired by Bardavon Health Innovations in 2022. Its technology and clinical approach were subsequently incorporated into Bardavon’s Recovery+ service, combining nationwide physical and occupational therapy providers, virtual clinical coaching, and digital self-care for workplace injuries and workers’ compensation recovery.
