Physicians Hanging a Shingle | Start a Private Medical Practice

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Una to talk about what it really takes to build a profitable private practice.
We break down the difference between revenue and profit, why more patients isn’t always the answer, and how to think about your practice like a business.
If you’ve been wondering how to make your practice financially sustainable, this conversation will give you a clearer way to think about it.

If you’ve been thinking about starting a private practice, you’ve probably told yourself, “I’ll open in about 12 months.”
In this episode, I break down why that timeline often doesn’t work—and how to build one that actually does.
I share what my timeline looked like (January → April → July) and how I structured my time while still working full-time.
We’ll talk about tying your timeline to real decisions, building it around your actual life, and what to do when delays happen.
