For the Dietitians, Trainers, Specialized Therapies, and more.

Upper invites natural-first Board Certified and Licensed Specialist Providers to become in-network at no cost.

Joining our network is every Specialist’s symbolic oath to unify natural medicine into one cohesive medical team for the public.

In-network providers gain the ability to refer and order care with one another directly. Even greater, they gain the opportunity to foster relationships with Upper’s front-line clinical unit (Nurses, Physicians, etc.), incentivizing and earning front-line referrals and orders for their services/products as clinically appropriate and customer requested. Our provider network communicates and collaborates on all shared-patient cases.

Providers who join between 2021 – 2025 enter into a 10% transaction fee agreement for every item sold through Upper’s platform (SEE TERMS AND CONDITIONS)

Providers accepted as of June 1, 2026 enter into a 15% transaction fee agreement for every item sold through Upper’s platform.

IMPORTANT: Our shared-sale and marketplace fee model directly impacts the earnings and growth of the clinical unit, your number one referral partners.
