[Hiring] Medical Director @Sonnet Health

Role Description

We are looking for a Medical Director to lead Primary Brain Health’s clinical teams, as we stand up our clinical practice. This is a dual role: you’ll see patients as a telehealth clinician, and you’ll own and oversee the clinical foundation of the practice, including the care pathways, protocols, quality and safety standards, and the clinical team that delivers them.

You’ll support patients and their families across a range of needs:

• People focused on prevention
• People quietly concerned about health changes
• People with clearly abnormal symptoms, tests or results
• People living with a diagnosis

We’re looking for an experienced physician with real expertise in and passion for cognitive and brain health, who has helped build or lead a clinical program before, or is ready to step into that leadership now. You’ll join early enough to shape how this model of care works, and you’ll help choose and develop the team that delivers it, starting with our first Brain Health Navigators and providers.

This is a fully remote, Telehealth role.

• Active, unrestricted MD/DO license with board certification
• Multi-state licensure is a strong plus, and you’re willing to obtain licenses in additional states

• Meaningful experience in cognitive and memory care
• Subspecialty training in cognitive or behavioral neurology is a plus
• Experience in clinical leadership, such as serving as a medical director, building a clinical program or service line, writing and monitoring protocols, or supervising clinical teams
• Telehealth or virtual-care leadership is a strong plus
• Working knowledge of telehealth regulation, multi-state practice, and quality and safety programs
• Strong knowledge of aging, cognition, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia
• Skill and warmth delivering difficult news and supporting patients and families through it
• Excitement about joining a fast-moving, early-stage team-oriented startup
• Comfort with ambiguity and evolving workflows

Requirements

• Conduct Telehealth visits to evaluate patients, interpret assessment results, and set clinical plans
• Order and review tests
• Prescribe and manage treatments
• Refer patients to external partners, including neurology, neuropsychology, and other specialties
• Review escalated cases, answer clinical questions, and sign off on care plans for the Brain Health Navigator team
• Communicate with patients’ primary care physicians and specialists to keep care coordinated

Benefits

• Fully remote telehealth, open to clinicians licensed in all states
• Fractional / contract role to start, with a path to a larger leadership role as we grow
• Hours: 10-40 hours per week, depending on initial role, split between clinical work and medical leadership. All clinical, protocol, and leadership work is paid
• Malpractice insurance fully covered by Primary Brain Health
• Compensation: [$150-$300 per hour], depending on factors such as board certification, subspecialty training in cognitive or behavioral neurology, licensure in multiple states, leadership experience, and years of clinical experience
