You asked. Dr. Una answered.
In this episode, I'm taking real questions from physician entrepreneurs on some of the most common — and most costly — challenges in private practice. From combating no-shows in a Medicaid-heavy practice, to building a brand from scratch, to scaling past $40K a month without burning out, this Q&A covers a lot of ground with practical answers you can actually use.
I also get into how to think about time when you're juggling a practice, a side job, and a family — and why simplicity is the move every time you want to grow.
Tune in and get inspired!
