Our published clinical research shows that our combined clinical and behavioural approach helps patients lose significantly more weight during their treatment with Juniper by four times.

- 130% YoY revenue growth and 90% reduction in cash burn, with $100M+ raised from investors including BOND, NewView, Blackbird and Airtree.
- Scaled to over 100,000 monthly active patients across our weight-management program.
- Grew the UK patient base from 4,000 to ~40,000 and received selective NICE endorsement to provide services to the NHS.
- Tailored our offering to over 5,000 patients in Germany and Japan

What's ahead in Japan?
Obesity in Japan is often overlooked. Although the country is seen as a “slim nation,” the WHO recognises obesity for Asian populations from a BMI of 25 due to higher health risks at lower thresholds. Around 20% of adults receive obesity indicators during annual check-ups, yet many don’t get access to ongoing, supportive care.
Euc is here to offer a more supportive path through:
- Thoughtful, evidence-based clinical care
- Ethical and responsible prescribing
- Accessible, affordable treatment options
- Warm, non-judgemental support for every patient
Our aim: Help people in Japan live with confidence, vitality, and long-lasting wellbeing.
- Grow with us globally - Get mentorship from leaders across Australia, the UK, Germany, and Japan while collaborating with top-tier teams in the Philippines and South Africa.
- Shape your career - Access learning budgets (includes language learning), shadow peers in other teams, and learn from a global knowledge-sharing culture.
- Work where wellbeing matters — Enjoy wellness budgets, mental health support through our Employee Assistance Program, annual health checks, flu shots, and work from anywhere policy,
- Innovate with purpose - Work with state-of-the-art tools and contribute to bold, impactful solutions in healthcare.
