Smarter Medical Care is a Berkeley-based company in the hospitals and health care sector. It develops customized animated videos intended to educate patients and their families, with the goal of reducing anxiety and improving treatment effectiveness. The videos engage both visually and verbally and can be tailored to a given institution's brand, a patient's specific illness, language, and ethnicity to remove information barriers. The company was founded by Dr. Robert Rodvien, who practiced medical hematology, oncology, and AIDS medicine for more than four decades in San Francisco, and by his son, Brian Rodvien. Their work combines clinical experience with Brian's background in video production and cognitive science to help people understand illnesses and participate more confidently in their care.
