Primary Care Physician

Primary Care Physician

Patients deserve primary care that treats the whole person and takes plant-based medicines as seriously as any other therapy. In this role you will build a trusted panel, close care gaps, and turn clinical judgment into outcomes that patients can feel and the organization can measure. You will practice at the intersection of medicine, evidence, and regulated cannabis-based treatment-where curiosity, rigor, and bedside skill matter equally.
Performance Objectives

• Establish and retain a defined patient panel, with access, continuity, and follow-up that meet agreed clinical standards.
• Complete comprehensive assessments and individualized care plans, including appropriate evaluation of medical cannabis where clinically indicated and legally permitted.
• Reduce avoidable acute visits and medication-related harm by coordinating chronic-disease management, deprescribing when safer, and documenting clear treatment goals.
• Contribute structured clinical observations that improve protocols, patient education, and the evidence base for cannabis-based care.
• Partner with nursing, pharmacy, and allied clinicians so referrals, labs, and treatment changes close within defined timelines.
• Maintain complete, defensible records and prescribing practices that satisfy medical regulators and quality review.
• Earn patient trust: high satisfaction, informed consent, and shared decisions patients can explain back in their own words.

Environment & Resources

You will practice within a small, early-stage life-sciences organization focused on developing cannabis as medicine. Expect a lean clinical team, direct access to scientific and operational colleagues, and a reporting line to clinical leadership. Tools include a standard electronic record, secure messaging, and protocol support; you will help shape workflows rather than inherit a large bureaucracy. Scope, schedule, and any clinical budget are set with leadership so panel size stays compatible with safe care.
Essential Qualifications

• Licensed physician in good standing, eligible to practice primary care in the jurisdiction of the role.
• Demonstrated management of complex chronic illness, polypharmacy, and shared decision-making.
• Working knowledge of medical cannabis indications, contraindications, dosing principles, and local regulatory requirements-or a clear plan to reach that standard quickly.
• Habit of writing clear notes and care plans that another clinician can act on.
• Comfort in a small organization where you both deliver care and improve how care is delivered.
• Commitment to evidence over advocacy, and to declining treatment that is not in the patient's interest.

Role Selling Points

• Practice where primary care and specialty medicine are designed together, not bolted on.
• Influence protocols early, you bring your voice to the table
• Flexible scheduling - your work life balance will always come first
• Physician-led model with a track to partnership
• Work beside scientists and operators who treat patient outcomes as the product, not the numbers.
• Keep a scope narrow enough to know your patients, broad enough to matter.

If you want to practice rigorous primary care and help define responsible cannabis-based medicine, apply with a short note on a patient outcome you are proud of and the clinical standard you will not compromise.
