The Physician Business Podcast

You opened your clinic because you wanted to practice medicine differently.

You wanted more autonomy, more time with patients, and the freedom to build something that reflects your values. But once you’re actually in the business of running a clinic, the reality can feel a lot more complicated...

If you were starting your business from scratch today, what would you absolutely not choose again?

That glitchy piece of tech you keep tolerating? The team member who takes more energy than they give back? The vendor relationship that makes your stomach sink every time their name pops up in yo...

Have you ever felt like you were doing all the right things to move your business forward, but somehow still staying in the same place?
