Director, Virtual Care Operations

Location: Remote (Colorado preferred)

SideBy Care is the first AI-powered virtual care service for GI practices and their patients with Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (DGBI). Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (like IBS) affect over 100 M people in the US alone.

Our gut and brain are closely connected through a network of nerves, hormones, and chemicals. They constantly communicate with each other, which is why stress or anxiety can cause symptoms like cramping or diarrhea. Similarly, gut problems can affect mood and stress levels, creating a cycle that impacts both your digestive and mental health.

SideBy Care provides gut-brain therapy with diet & lifestyle support in a virtual care service covered by insurance. 92% of patients report symptom improvement by 6 weeks!
