Recently, Dr. Tom Rountree put out an educational post on why DPC is so great. It was meant for the public and it got a ton of traction. He states that over 250K watched it on Tik Tok but it also blew up on X.
This is awesome.
Congratulations, Dr. Rountree. This is how you do it. Let’s all do something similar on November 1st, which is National Direct Primary Care Day.
Watch Dr. Rountree’s video. Take notes. Make something similar. He gave us a template to copy, and if enough of us do it on that day, then we can really make a dent in the universe.
It’s time to educate patients that there is an alternative to the garbage system that we have now.
