A Video Representation of DPC Docs

Posted on by

I scraped this information from the web, but unfortunately, I don’t have a source to provide credit. It warms my heart. To me, this represents DPC doctors (except you need to add girls to the video, sorry).

Some of my closest friends in my life are Direct Primary Care doctors. And we NEVER worked together or lived near each other!! I have maintained these relationships for almost a decade now. We communicate regularly, and even though I am retired, I still love the camaraderie and their companionship.

We are the only group of physicians who actually smile and like each other. Why? Because we like our jobs and we like our colleagues. We are also changing the landscape of healthcare and making it more human. Yes, occasionally, I see some pettiness or jealousy amongst DPC physicians, but it’s relatively rare and tame. What I see in the video above is these boys pulling for their friend. That is why I keep this website going because I am pulling for you!

I said this in my DPC Summit talk in Dallas, 2024. It’s a twist on what JFK once said.

Ask not what DPC can do for you, ask what you can do for DPC.
