  • What’s Really Scary About Owning a Medical Practice
    2026/10/27

    Owning a medical practice can be scary, but not always for the reasons you think.

    When I opened my practice in 2018, I worried about cash flow, delayed insurance payments, and whether I could make payroll—even with a full schedule.

    In this episode, I’m sharing six realities of insurance-based practice, from chasing payments and rising expenses to unpaid work and audits. These are experiences I’ve lived through and lessons I want other doctors to learn before facing them firsthand.

    Because being a good doctor isn’t enough. You also need a sustainable business.

  • Direct Contracting With Self-Funded Employers: The Next Frontier for Specialists
    2026/10/20

    Send us Fan Mail

    What if the next big opportunity for your direct specialty care practice is working directly with local employers?

    Businesses spend thousands of dollars on employee healthcare every month, yet their employees may wait months to see a specialist. Meanwhile, you might have appointments available just minutes away.

    In EP 245, I’m breaking down why direct contracting with self-funded employers could be the next frontier for specialists. Learn how this model works, why employers may benefit from transparent pricing and faster access to care, and how you can start connecting with local businesses and benefits brokers.

    Direct specialty care isn’t just about building your own practice. It’s about becoming a valuable healthcare resource for your community.

    The opportunity is here. Are you ready to build it?

  • 7 Reasons Doctors Shouldn’t Go Into Direct Care
    2026/10/13

    Send us Fan Mail

    Everyone is talking about going direct care. But what if you actually shouldn’t?

    I’m a big advocate for independently owned practices, but direct care is not the right fit for every doctor. In this episode, I’m sharing 7 reasons doctors should NOT go into direct care—from choosing a specialty that doesn’t translate well to cash pay, to running away from the wrong problem, avoiding money conversations, having no financial runway, lacking support at home or at work, being attached to institutional identity, and struggling to make decisions without certainty.

    Direct care can create more autonomy, but it also comes with responsibility, risk, and a lot of unknowns.

    The goal isn’t to convince every doctor to go direct care. It’s to help you figure out whether this model actually fits you.
