Revolutionizing women’s healthcare

“It takes a village” may be an old phrase used for anything requiring the efforts of more than one person, but in the realm of women’s health, it will never quite grow ancient.

Through a young trailblazer in the field of women’s health, Dr. Jaycy Violago-Olivarez, a new concept combining digital and physical services has been launched.

Eluvo Health is all about a synergistic community — an ecosystem, if you will — that delivers the highest quality of care to patients.

And because it is all for women, Eluvo strives to integrate both “excellence and compassion” into its practice.

Dr. Violago-Olivarez is the visionary founder and chief executive officer of Eluvo Health, a women’s healthcare company dedicated to empowering women through innovative solutions and personalized care.

Believing that the current status of female healthcare in the country leaves much to be desired and that there exists many a gap in our present-day system that desperately need to be addressed, the pioneering idea was born.

For starters, 85 percent of Southeast Asian women lack access to information and services related to women’s health. In Metro Manila alone, with a population of 12 million, there are only five JCI-accredited institutions with international quality standard servicing the women within the population. Add to that, the fact that cultural and religious oppositions hinder progress in female healthcare, despite the Reproductive Health Law that was passed in 2012.

A POGS-certified obstetrician and gynecologist, Dr. Violago-Olivarez’s journey towards revolutionizing women’s healthcare began with a deep-rooted passion for improving the lives of women.

Armed with a unique lens as a graduate with medical and business degrees from prestigious institutions and fueled by a mission to bridge the gaps in women’s healthcare, she embarked on an entrepreneurial endeavor, founding Eluvo Health. In her own words, “Eluvo Health is an all-in-one hybrid health partner — both digital and physical — through every life stage of a woman.”
