About Blueberry Balance

Blueberry Balance is a virtual, pediatric-led metabolic health program for adolescents, built by Blueberry Pediatrics. We pair board-certified pediatricians with in-house registered dietitians and exercise specialists to deliver comprehensive weight-management care — including GLP-1 therapy where clinically appropriate — to teens and their families at home.

Adolescent metabolic health is one of the most under-served areas in pediatrics. Most GLP-1 telehealth is built adult-first and gates care at 18, leaving families with elevated-BMI teens to navigate months-long waitlists at hospital-based programs or nothing at all. Balance exists to close that gap with real pediatric expertise and a holistic, family-centered model — never medication in isolation.

The Opportunity

The Practicing Physician is a frontline clinician on the Balance care team. You will carry your own panel of Balance families — running intake, reviewing labs, designing care plans with families, prescribing GLP-1 therapy where appropriate, and managing that care over time — all within the protocols and multidisciplinary model the program is built on.

This is a part-time (1099), flexible engagement designed to grow with the program: it starts at a modest monthly commitment and scales up as the panel does. It's a strong fit for a physician who wants meaningful clinical work in adolescent metabolic health without a leadership mandate, and who is interested in building obesity-medicine expertise on the job. You don't need to have run a program or hold an obesity-medicine certification to do this role well — you need sound clinical judgment, genuine interest in this population, and the willingness to work inside a coordinated, distributed care team.

What You'll Own

Patient intake and evaluation

Complete comprehensive patient intake for adolescents entering the program, including history, risk factors, and eligibility review

Order appropriate labs and review results, escalating findings that fall outside program guardrails

Care planning and treatment

Meet with patients and their families to design an appropriate, individualized care plan grounded in each teen's goals and clinical picture

Prescribe and manage GLP-1 therapy where clinically appropriate, always within a holistic plan that includes nutrition and behavioral support — and know when medication is not the right answer

Manage ongoing care for patients and families over time: monitoring visits, dose management, side-effect and safety management, and adherence support

Care-team coordination

Coordinate with other care team members — physicians, nurse practitioners, registered dietitians, and health coaches — so each family experiences one cohesive care plan rather than a set of disconnected touchpoints

Follow the program's clinical protocols and escalation pathways, and surface complex or ambiguous cases to the Physician Lead

Experience You'll Need

MD or DO with active, unrestricted medical license in good standing

Comfort and credibility caring for adolescents and their families
