We are looking for a highly skilled and compassionate Integrative Medicine Doctor to join our healthcare team. This role involves combining conventional Western medicine with complementary and alternative therapies to treat the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in traditional medical practices and be open to incorporating evidence-based holistic approaches such as acupuncture, nutrition, herbal medicine, and mind-body techniques into patient care.
As an Integrative Medicine Doctor, you will work closely with patients to develop personalized treatment plans that address the root causes of illness rather than just symptoms. You will collaborate with other healthcare professionals, including nutritionists, physical therapists, mental health counselors, and alternative medicine practitioners, to provide comprehensive care. Your goal will be to promote wellness, prevent disease, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
This position requires excellent communication skills, empathy, and a deep understanding of both conventional and integrative medical practices. You must be committed to continuous learning and staying updated on the latest research in integrative health. A successful candidate will be board-certified in a primary care specialty and have additional training or certification in integrative or functional medicine.
If you are passionate about helping patients achieve optimal health through a balanced and individualized approach, we encourage you to apply for this rewarding opportunity.
