Juniper, Our Weight Management Brand

Through Juniper, we provide a personalised, high-touch model of care that enables patients to access evidence-based, supportive and sustainable weight management. Our model promotes accessibility and accountability to patients who have traditionally struggled to achieve their goals in a stigmatised and poorly managed condition.

Incoming patients interface through an online questionnaire which collects key health information. Patients also undergo a model of high-touch care beyond the initial prescription with our team of health coaches, dieticians and regular Prescriber check-ins.

• Adhere to our practice standards, quality and safety procedures and policies, and complete all required training;
• Triage medical enquiries efficiently to ensure excellent patient safety and care is received;
• Respond to medical incidents promptly as escalated, via phone or asynchronous messaging;
• Be a critical point of contact for our Eucalyptus-partnered clinicians and work closely with a team of healthcare professionals to assist in building processes and systems that get better over time;
• Assist in the creation of medical knowledge centres that empower our broader team to provide deeper and more personalised patient experiences.
