One Search, Three Physicians: How a Longevity Health Startup Found More Expertise Than It Planned For
A pre-launch digital health platform focused on longevity medicine recently came back to Mozibox with a new need: finding physicians to support clinical content review.
This was the second time we had worked together.
A returning customer
The first engagement was a research project that required conversations with physicians. The experience went so well that the team returned when they needed physician expertise again.
As they shared after that first project:
"We were thrilled to connect with Mozibox when we needed to recruit MDs for a research conversation regarding an internal project. The onboarding and posting process was easy and simple. Within minutes of our opportunity being posted, we received responses from multiple qualified physicians. Each candidate was highly qualified for our project and we couldn't be happier with the outcome and how quickly it all fell in place. Thank you Mozibox."
19 applications in 24 hours
For the second engagement, the company was initially looking for one physician to help with clinical content review.
Within 24 hours, the opportunity received 19 physician applications.
The hiring team selected five physicians for initial interviews. Four advanced to a second interview with the company's Chief Medical Officer.
Then the plan changed
The candidate pool was so strong that, instead of selecting one physician, the company chose two physicians for the content review work. Both have deep experience in longevity medicine and have published peer-reviewed journal articles.
The team also identified a cardiologist from the same candidate pool for a separate specialty project.
What began as a search for one physician ultimately resulted in three physician engagements.
The hiring team told us:
"You've made this all so easy. It's truly a delight to work with you and Mozibox! 😃 Yes, you can quote me on that!"
By the numbers
- 19 physician applications within 24 hours
- 5 selected for initial interviews
- 4 advanced to interviews with the Chief Medical Officer
- 2 physicians selected for the original content review work
- 1 cardiologist identified for an additional specialty project
- 3 physician engagements from a search that originally called for 1
Why this matters for early-stage digital health
For early-stage digital health companies, the need for physician expertise often doesn't fit neatly into traditional recruiting.
It may start with clinical content review, research, product feedback, advisory work, or validation of a new clinical concept. But when companies have access to the right physicians, those initial projects can uncover expertise that becomes valuable in other parts of the business.
This experience also reflects something we continue to see at Mozibox: highly qualified physicians are interested in contributing beyond traditional clinical practice.
The challenge is often creating an efficient way for companies to reach the right physicians quickly.
More than filling a role
In this case, the company didn't just fill the role it came to us with. It found additional physician expertise it hadn't originally planned to hire.
And after two successful engagements together, that may be the most meaningful outcome of all: becoming a trusted place to turn whenever physician expertise is needed.
