We believe in a future in which every person has a personalized, AI-enabled doctor always in their pocket. To accomplish this, we’re building the first fully-vertical, AI-native medical group from the ground up. We’ve redesigned the entire clinical stack with custom AI tools that make our in-house physicians 10x faster and smarter. [[learn more on our blog](https://www.counselhealth.com/blog)] Since our founding in 2023, we have formed partnerships with leading healthcare organizations and are on track to serve hundreds of thousands of patients on our platform within the next year. We have raised over $35M from a16z, Google Ventures, Pear VC and other top-tier VC firms. Our team combines deep expertise in medicine (Harvard, Mt. Sinai, Mass General, UCSF) and technology (MIT, Google, DeepMind, NVIDIA, Stripe, Meta) — and we’re looking for exceptional people to join us as we scale. Join us as we build the future of AI in healthcare! ----------------------------------------------------- ## About the role Location: Remote (United States), IMLC LOQ is required to be considered for this role Team: Clinical Reports to: VP of Care Delivery Employment: W2 or 1099. We'll structure the role to fit how you want to work Schedule: Ability to work weekends + up to 2 evening shifts per month. No overnights. - Ability to commit at least 50 hours per month - Shift blocks (EST): 7:30a–1p, 1p–6p, 6p–9p. As a Physician on our Virtual Care team, you'll spend the vast majority of your time seeing patients. The difference is how, visits will be fully asynchronous messaging-based, AI-paired via our in-house custom built EHR. You'll be the clinician on the other end of the message: the one a patient turns to at 7pm on a Tuesday for their rash, their refill, or for help managing a chronic illness. Your day is patient care and every conversation you have with a Counsel patient sharpens how we care for everyone who comes next. That's what it means to multiply the world's healthcare capacity. ## What you'll do Practice exceptional, AI-paired medicine. - See patients across acute, primary, and longevity care over messages: diagnose, treat, triage, follow up - Practice with Counsel's AI like a sharp colleague who's already read the chart: it preps the history, sharpens the differential, drafts the message. The part only you can do, your judgment, the human on the other end of the message, gets your full attention - Hold a high bar on every encounter: the clinical reasoning, the safety, the way it lands with the patient - Stay generalist. That means solving in-scope clinical issues yourself and navigating patients to the next-best place in the healthcare system when necessary Raise the bar on the clinical team. - Work with the CMO and VP of Care Delivery on the guidelines, peer review, and clinical systems that keep care safe as the team grows - Mentor newer clinicians; share what's working; raise the bar without making it about you Shape the tools you practice in. - Counsel is built on a simple principle: clinicians first, technologists second. The people designing what you practice in want your pushback, your instincts, your taste - A workflow that frustrates you this week can be fixed in the next few. A tool you've been waiting years for can land in your hands in a matter of months ## What you bring - Board certification in Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine, or Family Medicine and and be a member of the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact (IMLC) and hold an IMLC Letter of Qualification - 3+ years of post-residency clinical experience (urgent care, ER, primary care, or a strong generalist mix) - Genuine interest in acute, primary, and longevity care - Comfort working in a fully virtual, asynchronous, messaging-based modality - Strong written communication, most of your patient care happens in writing Bonus points for - Active licenses in CA, FL, and/or NY! - Prior telehealth, virtual-first, or DTC healthcare experience - Experience incorporating the longevity into your clinical practice - A real point of view on AI in clinical practice - you've used the tools and formed opinions - Fast-paced acute environment (ER, urgent care) background where triage instincts are second nature ## Who you are - A role-model clinician. Patients leave feeling heard, helped, and clear on what's next - Bullish on AI in medicine, and clear-eyed about its limits. You see what's promising and what's not, and you say so - A generalist by temperament. You'd rather solve a hard, weird problem than do the same thing perfectly a thousand times - Comfortable with ambiguity and quick to take ownership when something's unclear - Optimistic about hard problems. Healthcare is messy and AI is moving fast, you're energized by that, not braced for it ## What We Offer You'll work with people who care deeply about the work and about each other. You'll practice medicine the way you've always wanted to, with the time, tools, and teammates to do it well. - Rate & Flexibility: $155/h, fully remote. Flexible work schedule. - Impact: An opportunity to be at the vanguard of AI-augmented care delivery. - Growth: Professional development and growth opportunities within a rapidly scaling venture-backed company. - Culture: A collaborative and innovative work environment where your ideas and contributions are valued ## Our Values - Patients come first. We are clinicians 1st, technologists 2nd. We act with patient trust/safety at the center of every decision. - Innovate with optimism. We are optimistic as we build the future of care delivery from first principles. Challenge the status quo when needed, no sacred cows. - Right answer wins. Debate openly and pick the strongest path. We optimize for the company, not functions. We win and lose as a team. - Simplicity over complexity. We choose clear, elegant solutions and avoid adding complexity that does not serve patients or the team. - Do fewer things, well. We focus, and hold ourselves to the highest bar and pursue excellence in those areas. Within your first few days at Counsel, somewhere in the country, a patient will get the kind of care most people don't yet know is possible because of the work you did here. If that's the kind of medicine you want to practice, we want to meet you. ----------------------------------------------------- ## #LI-PINJOB Recruitment Fraud Notice.
