There's a reason so many healthcare professionals hesitate before hitting record: years of being told social media and professionalism don't mix. In this Med Creator Minute, Dr. Portela explores why so many HCPs hesitate to show up online, and shares what actually builds confidence: reps, perspective, and permission to just be yourself. Listen to the end for the mindset shift that makes talking to a camera feel a lot less like talking to the internet.

Care Clark had just landed her dream aesthetic nursing job when COVID hit and sent her life sideways. So she started posting: scared, imperfect, and with no idea it would go anywhere. In this episode, Mimi Banks and Dr. Dustin Portela sit down with Care to unpack her path from a nervous first TikTok filmed inside a Walmart to a 16-million-view breakout moment, and everything she's built since: a content calendar, a virtual assistant, a manager, and a brand built on turning her own skin struggles into a message that resonates with women everywhere. If you've ever felt like you need to be ready before you start, Care's story is proof that ready is never really the requirement.

Dr. Dana Corriel, Board-Certified Internist and Founder of SoMe Docs (Doctors on Social Media), joins Mimi Banks and Dr. Dustin Portela to unpack how she turned burnout and a mid-career break into a full-blown platform for physician visibility. They dig into the free physician directory built like "a modeling agency for brains," why not every doctor needs to be an influencer, and the messy, personal journey of giving herself permission to step outside clinical medicine. It's a candid look at community-building, PR for physicians, and why the healthcare field needs its own kind of cheerleader.

Dr. Chris Tomassian posted his first dermatology video in a poorly lit bathroom and got four views. Today, he has nearly 3 million followers, and a thriving practice built on the back of it. Dr. Tomassian, founder of the Dermatology Collective, joins Dr. Dustin Portela and Mimi Banks to share how he turned raw, unscripted content into a brand bigger than the feed. From surviving pushback in residency to using social proof to open his own practice (with a second location on the way), Chris shares why simplicity beats strategy, why chasing virality is a trap, and why staying consistent matters more than any single video's performance.
