The Opportunity We’re building something new for New York City’s independent drivers — the people who keep the city moving but are often left out of traditional healthcare systems. Together with the Independent Drivers Guild and the Workers Benefit Fund (WBF) , we launched the Worker Healthy Living Program (WHLP) — a lifestyle medicine–informed program focused on helping drivers live healthier, longer lives through food, movement, sleep, stress management, and community. We’re looking for a Physician (MD or DO) who believes that health starts with lifestyle and relationships — not just prescriptions. This role is for a physician who wants to blend clinical care with hands-on program design, patient connection, and health education. This isn’t a typical primary care role. You’ll join a small, collaborative care team — including advanced practice clinicians, a dietitian, health coach, social worker, and medical assistant — working across in-person and virtual settings. You’ll lead and support shared medical visits, guide patients through six-month lifestyle medicine programs, and provide clinical leadership and oversight for group-based care focused on nutrition, physical activity, stress reduction, restorative sleep, and social connection. Beyond direct care, you’ll help shape how the model runs — refining workflows, advising on clinical protocols, and co-creating a system that supports both patients and providers. You’ll also work with Akido’s AI-powered platform to make care easier and more personalized — using technology to reduce administrative burden and enhance, not replace, the human connection. Telehealth is a core part of how we deliver care. This role offers up to 2 days per week of remote/telehealth work (subject to clinic needs and scheduling), giving you real flexibility while staying connected to your patients and care team. We know today’s physicians value the ability to work from home — and we’ve built that into how we operate, not as an afterthought, but as part of our model. This is a zero-to-one opportunity. You’ll be joining early, with real ownership over how the program is built and grown — from care delivery and team workflows to how technology supports clinicians and patients. We’re looking for a physician who’s energized by ambiguity, excited to experiment, and motivated to help turn a promising pilot into a scalable, sustainable model for underserved communities. This program is grounded in evidence and is designed to prevent and manage chronic conditions such as obesity, pre-diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, while also addressing mental, social, and environmental drivers of health. If you’re passionate about community health, behavior change, and building something from the ground up — this is your opportunity to help reimagine primary care from the ground up. You’ll Be a Great Fit If You Thrive in a collaborative, interdisciplinary care environment Are comfortable working in an early-stage, evolving environment — able to move forward with limited direction, adapt quickly, and help create structure Enjoy both clinical practice and prog
