Sorry, I had to use my ugly mug. The picture on the right is when I first started my Direct Primary Care office. That was 7 years ago. If you don’t know, I have sold my practice to concentrate on writing, consulting, and this creating this website.
But I was SOOOOO much happier than working for the man. That is NOT me on the left. That is a picture of some doctor scraped off the internet. Who’s happier? And whose patients are happier?
Isn’t it time you consider starting your own DPC practice? Just sayin’.
