Endo Nurse Practioner/Physician Assistant (Metabolic Health for Diabetes & Obesity)

Full Job Description

Job Summary

OwnaHealth is a virtual clinic on a mission to reverse Type 2 Diabetes and obesity through food, not pharmaceuticals. We serve underserved populations — people with limited access, limited means, and often very complicated cases of uncontrolled diabetes. Using a nutrition-first approach grounded in high-fat, low-carb and ketogenic principles, we help patients eliminate insulin use, reduce A1c levels by over 2 points, and regain control of their lives — even in the most challenging circumstances.

• Reverse the diabetes and obesity epidemic: Help solve one of healthcare’s biggest challenges by using food as medicine, not just prescriptions.
• Practice deprescribing, not just prescribing: Get patients off insulin, sulfonylureas, and the long list of medications they’ve been stacked on for years — and see the results.
• Full-time, in-clinic role: Work in-person from one of more than 50 office locations across New York State, upstate and downstate, role starting in late 2026.
• Pay and benefits: $110,000–$130,000 per year, plus great health insurance and PTO.
• Mentorship from a world-class endocrinologist: Work directly under Dr. Mariela Glandt — Harvard- and Columbia-trained endocrinologist with 20+ years of experience and founder of the Glandt Clinic in Israel, where she has helped thousands reverse diabetes using the same nutrition-based protocol.
• Life-changing relationships: Build long-term relationships with a small caseload of complex patients and walk with them through real, lasting transformation.
• Clinician-centered philosophy: You are at the core of what we do, and we take your feedback seriously.
• Collaborative culture: Work alongside care coordinators, coaches, dietitians, and supervising endocrinology in a supportive, learning-focused environment.
• Grow with us: We’re scaling quickly and looking for clinical leaders to grow with the practice.
