Momentum is growing for DPC. NPR even highlighted us:
The U.S. faces a growing shortage of physicians, especially those in primary care fields like internal medicine, mental health and pediatrics. The shortfall is driven by population and demographic trends and burnout. Fred de Sam Lazaro found a doctor-patient model at a clinic in Wisconsin that may help the problem. It’s part of his series, Agents for Change.
Go to the link and watch the video. It’s wonderful. The doctor highlighted is Dr. Kristen Dall-Winther of Birchwood Family Medicine and she did a great job explaining everything. She describes the benefits of Direct Primary Care and talks about how she can now find things on patients others docs couldn’t because the system gave them no time. It also saved Dr. Dall-Winther’s professional and personal life. You have to take a look but also share it. It is also a great marketing tool for your own practice.
Embrace freedom. Leave the system. Join the rebellion.
