About Orena
Clearer insight into cognitive health, from home.
Orena helps adults and families screen for early signs of cognitive change from home — with a cognitive assessment, a reviewed report, and a neurologist to explain the results by phone or video.
Why Orena Exists
Families often wait too long for answers. We're changing that.
Cognitive changes can be confusing, emotional, and easy to dismiss. Many families wait until symptoms become harder to ignore before seeking help — long after the moment when understanding could have helped most.
Orena was created to make cognitive assessment easier to access earlier — from home, with clear results and guidance on what to do next. No referral, no waiting room, no months of not knowing.
"When my grandfather started repeating the same questions, my family didn't know where to begin. Just checking meant a referral, a waitlist, and months of not knowing. I started Orena so that first step — simply finding out whether something is worth a closer look — could begin at home, without a trip to a clinic."
