The Ollie Story
If it feels like Ollie was innovated by a parent and not a system, you’re right. Ollie Pediatrics is boldly challenging the status quo by purposefully creating the kind of uncompromised care that rises above what we all used to have to settle for. To that end, here are some of the values we hold ourselves accountable to:
“Families deserve a pediatrician who sees more than symptoms – who sees the whole child, the whole story.
That's why I'm here.”
Next level care
We are transforming the way it used to be with our Integrated Primary Care Model. We will address your child’s whole health, not just against physical benchmarks, but also emotional and psychological ones because we know these things contribute significantly to their well being. Next level care also means we are not restricted by insurance company guidelines. Not bound by time or insurance reimbursement codes, our doctors get to thoroughly screen for all possible diagnosis to provide the best treatment options.
Collaboration and Coordination of Care
The Ollie Care doctors and in-house specialists will get to know your family well. They will work together to coordinate all aspects of your child’s health for a more connected and efficient experience.
Our Support goes beyond the Ollie Team. Included in your membership is our concierge coordination of care service. Our concierge will connect you with the right specialized doctor from our curated referral network. They will assist in scheduling your appointments, facilitate communication with the Ollie team and securing medical records and doctors notes.
A comprehensive experience for personalized and empathetic care
Through the use of technology, Ollie makes your life easier and less stressful. Your membership includes 24/7 access to our app so you can chat with your team, schedule appointments, workshops, and more. The Ollie model is about re-imagining medical visits with private exam suites dedicated to your comfort, unrushed visits with your care team, and most importantly, an approach that addresses all the dimensions of wellness from an integrated point of view.
Support and Empowerment
According to the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, primary care is most effective when it fully meets the needs of both patients and families. This is why, at Ollie, our goal is to guide and empower parents following a framework of healthcare that goes beyond the traditional model of medicine. You know your child best, and we listen, working as a team to ensure their well-being through detailed follow-ups, ongoing preventative screenings, parent coaching, tailored workshops and more. At Ollie, we don’t just provide care—we build a community of parents, fostering shared support and insight. Together, we celebrate wins, navigate challenges, and take your child's development to new heights with a truly comprehensive, empowering approach—rooted in proven research and expert-driven care.

Hello I’m Ramses one of Ollie’s Founders. I’m glad you’re here and championing for our shared purpose to help your family not just survive but thrive. As a father of five, I understand firsthand the unimaginable joys and challenges of parenting. My personal journey through the pediatric healthcare system highlighted critical gaps in access, efficiency, and family engagement—insights that inspired us to launch Ollie.
It is safe to say that this ground breaking model of care was born when I had my first child over twenty-five years ago. I was raised by single mom so when I found out I was going to be a father, I really wanted to be a great dad. The first books I remember reading said how the first five years of a child’s life sets the social/emotional foundation for the rest of their life. WHAT!? Talk about pressure. What I quickly realized was that although raising the next generation of human was the most important “thing” I would ever do the level of community and expert support did not match the task.
As a Founder I get to blend my years of entrepreneurial success with my passion for parenting and create that team for you. I created a practice designed to provide families with world class medical care, seamless access to their care team, family mental wellness, innovative technology, a team of curated experts and a supportive community. You’re doing the hardest thing you will ever do and I have created a group of critical supporting villagers so your family can thrive. As a parent coach I get to help parents truly embrace their parenting journey and find all the joys in parent life. I empower parents to create the family lives they want to live and to accept nothing less. I help them see through the daily demands of life to ensure there is always space for love and connection in the home.

Hello I’m Monica one of Ollie’s Founders. Congratulations on your parenting and/or child caregiving journey. As a mom of two small children I can attest to the immense joys and the real struggles of mothering today. Our family is also a blended family so I get to be Bonus mom as well which has its own world of emotions. What I did realize early on as a mom is that it truly takes a village to raise these little humans. This is where for me our healthcare and family support systems have all fallen short.
When I founded Ollie the top initiative was uncompromising medical care with ease of access. My world, as most Moms, stops when my children are sick so this was the top priority. My pediatric visits involved phone calls, dealing with hurried administrative staff, a wait in the waiting room, another wait in the patient room followed by a 3-minute doctor visit. Then while getting to the car I remembered the other five questions I had for the doctor and stressing how hard it would be to get them on phone. Oh, and now turn on gentle-parenting because my toddler just realized they are wearing the “red” sweater and having a meltdown while I’m putting her in the car seat.
I have totally embraced “Mom Life” but that’s not the pediatric experience I want for myself or any other mom.
The next top initiative was that Ollie was going to be of service to parents and the next major parental concern after physical wellness is mental wellness. Like most parents I want to make sure my children are in excellent physical shape but also mental and emotional shape. So back to Ollie’s mission of uncompromising care we will have a Doctor of Psychology on staff. Additionally, your in-house care team will have a parent coach, sleep consultant and a list of close advisors to help with nutrition, lactation, education guidance and caregiver training. Finally, a membership concierge to help coordinate all your specialty consultations outside of Ollie. Our shared mission with Ollie is to transform the pediatric experience but my personal mission is to give moms and dads more space to enjoy their little humans.

One of the activities I enjoy the most is traveling. My dear husband suffers from travel anxiety so traveling is always fun.
