Ottawa Medical Clinic jobs in Ottawa, ON

What makes Paxman a great place to work?

At Paxman, we’re on a mission to make scalp cooling accessible for everyone. We’re chasing zero hair loss and investigating other ways to mitigate the devastating side effects of chemotherapy.

What began as a husband’s goal to help his beloved wife, Sue, hold on to a part of herself during chemotherapy, has transformed into a global mission to offer privacy, normality, emotional wellbeing and a degree of control to hundreds of thousands facing the same cancer battle.

Together, we have not only changed the conversation around chemotherapy-induced alopecia but have also advanced the broader mission to improve the overall experience of cancer treatment.

Sue was the spark that ignited more than just a business, but a movement – one that never would have been possible without the passionate, dedicated and skilled people who have joined the Paxman family in a shared goal that began all those years ago.

This is why Paxman invests in its greatest strength, its people.
