Job Description

Are you tired of taking care of sick patients? Do you want to address the root of our healthcare system's crisis? Do you have a passion for health and wellness, and follow that passion yourself? Do you love helping people reach their goals?

If you answered yes, we would love to discuss an opportunity to join our team at Medi-Weightloss.

If you haven’t heard of us, we’re a medically supervised weight loss clinic, and our goal is to help people live long and healthy lives. The obesity epidemic is only getting worse, and the demand for what we offer is increasing daily. Because of that, we continue to look for talented candidates who are looking to build their career in a more preventative approach to medicine.

We are seeking a driven, self-motivated medical professional with a dynamic personality who requires minimal supervision to join our team as a practitioner on a full- or part-time basis. Candidates must be passionate about helping others, dependable, and hardworking with an outstanding work ethic.
