2. OUR CORE VALUES
Everything we do - from patient care to the way we operate as a team - is guided by a shared set of values:
- Practice What You Preach - We believe great providers should personally value health, wellness, and optimization, not just professionally recommend it.
- Patients First, Always - Every recommendation, decision, and interaction is rooted in what is best for the patient and their long-term health outcomes.
- Take Ownership - We bring solutions, communicate proactively, and take responsibility for the standard of care and experience we create.
- High Standards, High Accountability - We care deeply about clinical excellence, continuous growth, and showing up with intention every day.

3. ABOUT THIS POSITION
As Declare Wellness Center continues to grow, we are expanding our clinical team and seeking a Functional Medicine Provider to take full ownership of patient care alongside our founder. This is a meaningful, high-impact role at the center of everything we do - managing patient consultations, hormone and lab oversight, and individualized care planning across our active wellness programs and membership patient panel.
From day one, you will work directly with Dr. Craig Cohen DC, FNP, learning the Declare model and progressively building your patient relationships. A supervising physician is in place, and in-house training in functional medicine, BHRT, genetics, and peptide therapy is available to support your development. In your first 90 days, success looks like completing your clinical orientation, building strong patient rapport, and confidently managing follow-up visits and lab reviews independently.
This role is ideal for a provider who enjoys building long-term patient relationships, thrives in a collaborative clinical environment, and is excited to grow within a rapidly expanding functional medicine practice.
