Today we are joined by oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr. Myron Tucker. Dr. Tucker had a private practice in North Carolina for 18 years before he stepped away from full time surgery in 2009. Our guest has had a prolific career on the research side of the business, publishing a number of textbooks and offering his experience to support to students of the science. In our conversation, we get to hear Dr. Tucker's perspectives on building a successful practice, the patience and planing this requires, the benefits of pairing with someone more experienced, and how an open attitude to continual learning is the best stance to adopt. We also talk about why disability insurance is always a good idea, and Dr. Tucker's personal experience of this during his retirement. Listening in, you will get a real sense of a true professional, someone who has stayed invested and engaged in the work he loves, so make sure to join us for this inspiring conversation!
