About Maribel

Maribel Health is named in honor of Maribel Sanchez Souther who died in 2016 at age 41 after a two-and-a-half-year battle with triple-negative breast cancer. She lived an amazing life as a wife, mother of three, friend, Ivy League coach, and All-American runner.

During her treatment, Maribel had multiple hospital admissions that took her away from her young family. Often, these issues could have been addressed more effectively in the home with the right support and technology. Maribel Health exists so that patients like Maribel receive the care they deserve where they need it most – in their home.

““I understand personally how challenging care model redesign can be at every level. Maribel is here to help – because when the world around you is changing rapidly, there is nothing more dangerous than simply doing what you’ve always done.“

Adam Groff, MD

“Healthcare is facing a global crisis as patient needs rapidly outpace existing workforce capacity. Automation paired with well-managed home based care gives patients the care they want, scalably and sustainably.”
