Women's Health Physician

About Stem Health

Stem Health is reimagining the primary care experience for individuals who want a more thoughtful relationship with their health. Physician-led and membership-based, we combine medical excellence with the warmth of hospitality anchored in a beautifully designed flagship clinic at First Canadian Place, opening September 2026. Our care model is relationship-based, data-informed, and built on time, trust, and exceptional service.

Position Summary

Women's health is not a niche. It is a distinct clinical discipline one shaped by hormonal complexity, life stage transitions, and a history of being dismissed, under-researched, and under-treated at every turn. Stem Health is building a women's health program that takes that seriously: evidence-based, comprehensive, and grounded in the kind of physician relationship that gives women the time and the clinical depth their health actually demands.

We are looking for a physician with focused expertise in women's health to lead this program. You will deliver individualized, proactive care across the full spectrum of women's health hormonal and reproductive health, perimenopause and menopause management, sexual health, bone health, thyroid and metabolic health, cardiometabolic risk, pelvic health, and the psychological dimensions of women's wellbeing at every life stage. You will practice as an integrated member of Stem Health's clinical team, with access to advanced on-site diagnostics, a multidisciplinary team, and a membership of women who are engaged, high-functioning, and ready to be genuinely cared for.

Experience in executive healthcare, menopause medicine, or integrative women's health is a significant asset. This is a role for a physician who can hold the full complexity of a woman’s health clinically and humanly and who understands that the two are inseparable.
