Senior Full Stack Developer @ Practice Better

At Practice Better, we believe practitioners and their clients deserve better. We’re changing how health and wellness practitioners work by building a modern EHR that’s designed to support the health of their clients and their practice at the same time.

We’re on a mission to help millions of practitioners build the independent practice of their dreams. Founded in 2016, we’re built by practitioners, for practitioners. In 2023, we acquired That Clean Life, the #1 nutrition planning software for nutrition-based care. With more than 40,000 customers in 70+ countries worldwide, we’re honored to be the EHR of choice for the practitioner with an independent spirit. And we’re just getting started.
