Work Location: Dream Functional Medicine, Pueblo & Colorado Springs, CO

Part-time with an increase to Full-time as practice grows (Independent Contractor)

At Dream Functional Medicine, we are a next-generation clinic focused on holistic, science-backed treatment protocols designed to optimize longevity, health, and quality of life as you age. We offer transformative treatments ranging from hormone balancing solutions, to anti-aging, and weight management.

We’re looking for someone who believes what Zig Zigler said, “You will get whatever it is you want in life if you help enough people get what it is they want.” We need someone who understands that those who serve other people will themselves become the happiest in the long run.

Highly successful individuals have a greater purpose in life. They most often have a purpose for getting out of bed and are excited to take on whatever obstacles life throws at them. They also believe deeply in what they are trying to accomplish. For us it is important that you are great at patient care, but just as important, is that you match our culture, and believe deeply in the transformational services and products that we provide to our customers. 

We’re looking for someone who expects to have a transformational impact in the lives of many of people. This is an opportunity to find a place to Make Meaning, not just money. We believe that we were made to be and to do something significant with our lives, and to have a global impact. We’d love to have you jump in on this journey with us.

We don’t believe in employees. Everyone at Dream Sleep Center is a stakeholder. You OWN your job responsibilities. There are no “ordinary” people here.
