Why we care.
Rare disease information is fragmented.
Patients and caregivers experience difficult journeys.
83% of patients worry based on lack of information
75% experience depression and anxiety.
Our tools and services give providers and patients the right information at the right time for the best care possible.
Our Story.
Founder & CEO Eesha Sharma
Eesha grew up alongside an older sibling with an undiagnosed genetic disease.
At the age of 15 her sister was on several unnecessary medications, with severe side effects of obesity and depression. Through slow trial and error over several years her mother determined 5 medications were unnecessary.
“I remember being shocked the first time I heard a care provider tell my mom: ‘You are her most capable nurse because we only know so much.’”
The name Lamar is inspired by the science-fiction movie Gattaca where Dr. Lamar helps the main character become an astronaut despite his genetics.
Lamar Health’s mission is to support genetic providers in helping their patient’s live their fullest lives.
