Job Description

Pomelo Care is the leading virtual medical practice for women and children, providing care across pregnancy, postpartum, pediatrics, menopause, and perimenopause.

We combine proactive, 24/7 clinical care with technology that helps us reach patients earlier, identify risks sooner, and deliver personalized care throughout their journey.

Our team includes clinicians, technologists, operators, and problem-solvers working together to make high-quality care more accessible for families nationwide.

We are expanding our network of Registered Dietitians to deliver expert, compassionate virtual care for individuals navigating perimenopause and menopause transitions. By joining Pomelo, you will have the autonomy to set your own schedule while being part of our multi-specialty care model.

*Candidates licensed in multiple states are highly encouraged to apply.

  • Minimum of 2 years of experience providing evidence-based nutrition counseling.
  • Ability to commit to a minimum of 10 patient-facing hours per week.
  • Comfort using telehealth platforms, video conferencing, and electronic medical records (EMR).

Strong clinical independence and exceptional communication skills, with a collaborative mindset for multidisciplinary care.

Preferred Experience (Nice-to-Have)

  • Experience or strong clinical interest in supporting patients with:
  • Conditions of metabolic syndrome
  • Weight loss and body composition changes
  • Osteopenia/osteoporosis
  • Gut health concerns, including bloating, IBS, and elimination diets
  • Anti-inflammatory eating patterns
