Here is a shoutout to Dr. Illana Kayrouz who was recently interviewed on a local TV outlet. She did a really nice job hitting the selling points of DPC and her practice. I recommend you watch and see if you would say anything different. You really want to have your elevator pitch ready when your time comes. Here are a few of her quotes we picked out from the interview.
“I could not give the best care to the patients in the way that they needed to be taken care of in the traditional practice.”
“I felt like I couldn’t take care of patients well in 10 minutes.”
“I can’t imagine practicing medicine in any other way.”
