⸻About Prvnt
Prvnt is a premium preventive and longevity clinic focused on catching disease early and extending healthspan, not just treating illness when it appears. We combine physician-led care, advanced diagnostics, continuous monitoring (wearables, CGM, lab trends), genomics, and high-touch coaching to help our members live longer, stronger, and healthier lives.

Role Overview
We're looking for a Functional / Integrative Medicine Doctor who is obsessed with root-cause thinking and proactive care. You will lead clinical care for Prvnt members in Dubai—digging deep into history, lifestyle, environment, biology, and where relevant genomic risk to design personalized, long-term health strategies.
You'll work closely with health coaches, nutritionists, and data from wearables/CGM, labs, and genomic reports (WGS/WES, polygenic risk, pharmacogenomics) to move beyond 'normal labs' and help patients reverse risks, optimize performance, and prevent chronic disease.
⸻What You'll Do
1. Clinical Care & Root-Cause Medicine
Conduct comprehensive functional medicine assessments: detailed history, systems review, lifestyle and environmental factors.
Identify underlying drivers of symptoms and chronic conditions (metabolic, hormonal, inflammatory, gut, sleep, stress, etc.).
Design personalized care plans including nutrition, lifestyle changes, supplementation, medications, and behavior change.
Run regular follow-ups (in-clinic and virtual) to review progress, adjust protocols, and keep members accountable.
2. Advanced Diagnostics, Genomics & Data-Driven Practice
Order and interpret advanced labs & investigations (comprehensive blood panels, hormones, cardiometabolic markers, gut health, micronutrients, etc.).
Interpret and integrate genomic data (e.g., WGS, WES, targeted panels, polygenic risk scores, pharmacogenomics) into risk stratification and care plans where clinically appropriate.
Integrate data from wearables, CGM, and other devices into your clinical decision-making.
Collaborate with our tech/AI tools to flag early risk patterns and refine care pathways.
3. Team-Based Care & Collaboration
Work closely with health/functional coaches, nutrition experts, and fitness professionals to deliver unified care.
Participate in weekly case reviews and protocol development with the wider clinical team.
Help create standardized yet personalized pathways for key conditions (metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, PCOS, long COVID, burnout, etc.).
4. Member Experience & Concierge-Level Care
Provide a calm, attentive, white-glove experience for high-expectation clients.
Communicate complex concepts clearly and simply; empower patients instead of overwhelming them.
Maintain high standards of documentation, follow-through, and responsiveness.
5. Quality, Safety & Compliance (Dubai / UAE)
Practice in full alignment with DHA / UAE regulatory requirements.
Ensure accurate, thorough documentation in our EMR and digital systems.
Support the development of clinical SOPs, consent workflows, and safety guidelines.
6. Innovation & Continuous Improvement
Contribute to new program design (e.g., longevity tracks, corporate programs, specialty protocols).
Stay current with functional medicine, longevity research, and clinical genomics; bring evidence-backed innovation into practice.
Provide feedback to product/tech teams to improve our AI tools and patient platform.
