Who we are and why we built this
Care was built by two people who are accomplished in their professional fields and who chose to build something else entirely in the time their work could not fill. We are not doctors. We are patients, and we are the family managing everything that surrounds treatment. We built Project Care because we have both lived through the moments that make you understand, without any ambiguity, how much it matters to have honest guidance when you need it most.
Sameer Mittal
Co-Founder
Sameer was born and raised in India and has built his career here. He is a senior professional with deep expertise in his field. Project Care is not his job. It is what he built because he understood, from the inside, that it needed to exist.
His experience of healthcare came not as a travelling patient but as the person managing it for the people he loves most. He is currently navigating his father's ongoing cancer treatment and has supported his mother through surgery, doing both whilst maintaining his career and caring for his own family. He has learned things that do not appear in any hospital brochure. The family is largely invisible to the system. The chaos surrounding treatment, the logistics, the conflicting advice, the financial anxiety, the hours of coordination, falls entirely on whoever in the family is most capable of bearing it. There is almost no disinterested help available for that person.
Sameer also lost a child. That loss, experienced in India, sits beside Anurag's in the foundation of why both men chose to direct their energy here.
Anurag Mittal
Co-Founder
Anurag was born and raised in India. Over two decades in business, he has built a career that has taken him across the Middle East, Europe, and North America. He is accomplished in his field and has worked across cultures and industries at a senior level.
He did not come to Project Care through healthcare expertise. He came through personal experience of healthcare systems on three continents, experienced not as a professional observing from a distance, but as a patient inside them. He has navigated hospital systems in countries where the billing was opaque and the guidance being offered came with commercial strings he could not always see. He has made high-stakes decisions under that uncertainty.
Anurag carries something that sits at the foundation of why this platform exists. He lost a child whilst living abroad. That loss is the experience that made questions about healthcare systems feel not like a business problem, but like something he was compelled to address.
What we built, and why
We did not build Project Care because we saw a market opportunity. We built it because we both know what it is to be inside a healthcare journey with insufficient information, surrounded by a system that is not structurally on your side, and carrying grief that does not pause whilst the logistics continue.
We are not medical professionals. We will not tell you which treatment to choose. What we will give you is the clearest, most honest picture we can of your options in India, and a community of people who have been through this journey and are willing to share what they genuinely found.
We created this community so that no one has to navigate the maze entirely alone. So that the family member sitting outside the ward has somewhere to turn. So that the patient researching from abroad has something to read that was written for them, not for the hospital that might receive their business.
We both have careers. We both have lives. We built Project Care because some things are worth building regardless.

We have no commercial relationship with any hospital in India. If that ever changes, it will be disclosed here immediately and in full.
