About Counsel

Counsel’s mission is to multiply the world's healthcare capacity. 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]

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!

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 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
