what we believe

Courage to change things

We don't accept that accessing complex care should be confusing or out of reach. So we challenge broken systems, from fragmented medical travel to hidden pricing, and build better solutions. Courage means negotiating transparent rates that make complex care affordable, coordinating across time zones, and never settling for “that's how it's always been done.”

Think patient first

Everyone is, or will be, a patient or a caregiver. We put the person at the center of every decision, not the provider, not the insurer, not the process. That means upfront costs, clear communication, and a care plan built around a human being, not a diagnosis code.

Why this matters to you:
You get clear, predictable pricing
and a service that actually works.

Why this matters to you:
You are treated as a person, not a case number.

Resilience is our superpower

Navigating complex care across borders is high stakes work. Medical complications before traveling, flights get delayed, visas hit hurdles, medical records arrive incomplete. We don't break; we adapt. Every setback teaches us something, and we listen to patients, physicians, and partners, so we keep getting better. Resilience turns chaos into clarity.

Include everyone

Our team spans Miami and Bogotá, serving patients in English, Spanish, and French. We foster an environment where every individual is respected, every voice is heard, and every perspective is valued. By embracing diversity, we build trust, strengthen collaboration, and deliver better outcomes for every patient.

Why this matters to you:
When the unexpected happens, we adapt and
keep your journey on track.

Why this matters to you:
Your culture, language, and needs are
respected at every step.

leadership team

The people who built Oversee Care came from hospitals, clinical medicine, air ambulance operations, law, nursing, and public health.

We have navigated patients in crisis across borders 24/7 worldwide. We built this company because we watched the system fail people who deserved better. That is who answers when you call.

Francesca Narvaez

Before Oversee Care, Francesca ran international programs that transferred thousands of patients across borders. She built complex care networks across the Caribbean and Latin America, and managed programs with governments and private organizations across the region.

Master's in Public Health, National University of Colombia · Bachelor's in Sociology · Behavioral Economics Program, University of Chicago

“I have watched patients spend what little energy and resources they had trying to figure out where to go, who to trust, and what it will cost. That is not only a healthcare problem. That is a navigation problem. It is entirely solvable. That is why we built this.”

Francesca Narvaez

Her role in your journey:

Sets the vision and patient-centric standards that every case is held to.

Dr. Javier Maldonado Escalante

Dr. Maldonado holds a medical degree from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, with advanced training in cardiovascular surgery at the University of São Paulo. He completed observation rotations in cardiac transplant and organ recovery at Columbia University and Cleveland Clinic.

Dr. Maldonado has spent three decades leading cardiovascular surgery at Colombia's top hospitals. He built heart transplant programs, brought in minimally invasive techniques, and has consistently achieved clinical outcomes that meet, and often exceed, international standards. At Oversee Care, he personally reviews every complex case, looking at medical history, diagnosis, and risk, and then triages each patient to the right top tier hospital or specialist.

“Safety isn't a goal; it's a baseline. My job is to look at your case and know exactly where you need to go: the right physician, the right surgeon, the right hospital, the right path. That's how we get the best outcome | Dr. Javier Maldonado Escalante”

His role in your journey:

Reviews your case before you travel. Confirms the right hospital and specialist. No patient is routed without his clinical sign-off.

Lesly Narváez

Dr. Rodríguez holds a medical degree and a specialty in general surgery from Universidad del Rosario in Bogotá, with advanced training in trauma and emergency critical care. He completed an observership at HCA Florida Aventura Hospital in Florida in 2024, and is completing subspecialty training in Gastrointestinal, Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery in Mexico through 2026.

Dr. Rodríguez has practiced medicine since 2018 across trauma surgery, clinical research and medical education, having operated at important institutions including Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá and Hospital Universitario Mayor Mederi in Colombia. At Oversee Care, every catastrophic case begins under his direct supervision. He reviews each case the moment it arrives, grades the urgency, coordinates the exact specialists the diagnosis demands, and defines a personalized plan of care before the patient travels.

“In catastrophic cases, speed is not customer service, it is clinical care. The first hours decide what is possible, so we review your case the moment it arrives, decide what is urgent, and define your plan of care before you travel | Dr. José Gabriel Rodríguez”

His role in your journey:

Reviews your case the moment it arrives. Grades what is clinically urgent. Coordinates the specialists your diagnosis demands and defines your plan of care before you travel.

Lesly Narváez

Lesly is an attorney with over 20 years of experience leading quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and institutional transformation in complex organizations. As a Certified Lead Auditor, she makes sure every process meets the highest standards, because patients deserve nothing less.

At Oversee Care, Lesly protects patient rights, guarantees financial and legal transparency, and makes sure no family ever signs a form they don't understand. Her work keeps our promise of clarity, accountability, and compassionate guidance alive at every step.

“My job is to protect your rights so you can focus on healing. | Lesly Narváez”

Her role in your journey:

Protects your rights and ensures every cost is transparent before you sign anything.

Jacob

Jacob previously ran two of the world's leading air ambulance companies, overseeing the coordination of time-critical medical transports across multiple continents, the kind of operations where a 20-minute delay can change an outcome. He has managed air medical crews, accepting facility negotiations, and family communications in some of the most complex transport cases in the industry.

“I've spent my career moving patients in crisis. Now I make sure no one gets lost along the way. | Jacob Bercovici”

His role in your journey:

If something urgent happens, he mobilizes the team: air ambulance, emergency transport, and bed confirmation before departure.

Ana

Ana María is a registered nurse with two decades of experience leading international patient programs at Colombia's top hospitals. She holds a nursing degree from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and specialized training in international health services.

At Oversee Care, she works alongside the Medical Director to make sure nothing gets in the way of your care. She removes the barriers that derail treatment: fear about money, language gaps, confusing paperwork, and the exhaustion of not knowing what comes next. She gives patients a clear path so they can focus on healing. No guesswork. No silence. Just a straight road ahead.

“When you're coming from another country, the healthcare system can feel overwhelming. My job is to clear the path so you focus on healing, not on paperwork, waiting, or worrying about the bill. | Ana María Gonzalez”

Her role in your journey:

Removes every barrier between you and your care: fear, paperwork, language gaps, and the exhaustion of not knowing what comes next.
