Physician (Remote/Part Time, California license required)

Our Mission

Calibrate’s mission is to change the way the world treats weight. 

Our Method

Calibrate is on a mission to change the way the world treats weight. We are the modern, medical approach to metabolic health. Calibrate members are paired with a doctor and a coach, who support them during their customized year-long program to lose 10% of their body weight and reset their metabolic system. We personalize treatment with medications and behavior coaching, using content and connected devices to help change the way members eat, exercise, sleep, and manage their emotional health.

About The Role

A modern approach to weight health requires modern practices, and that means radically remodeling how intensive lifestyle intervention programs operate and scale. As part of our clinical care team, you’ll deliver several critical components of the Calibrate program: face-to-face video patient assessments, confirmation of clinical appropriateness for clinical care pathways, introduction to our method, and setting program plans with members. 

In addition to providing exceptional patient care, your feedback on how we can continue to improve our program to help patients achieve–and maintain–their weight-loss goals will help shape and improve the program.
