In today’s episode, Dr. Brown is the latest doctor to join the podcast and his journey is unique in that he opened his DPC, Strive Direct Health, WHILE he was still in residency. He shares about how his clinic started from a dirt floored building and how he, along with his co-Resident Dr. Schuster, had 100 patients with 100 days left to go in residency. Dr. Brown also talks workflows and how a desire to have an EMR that worked for him was the nidus for starting AeroDPC, recently acquired by Hint Health, and how being a Nextera Affiliate is a perfect fit for the clinic!
From Dr. Brown:
Hello! My name is Brad Brown of Strive Direct Health in Erie, Colorado and I’ve been in practice since March 2021. I opened Strive with a little over a year left in residency and haven’t looked back. It’s been a fun journey to be a small part of the DPC world from the get-go. I learned about DPC early in med school and knew it was the way of the future. Along the way, my wife and brother created AeroDPC, an all-in-one practice management EMR for DPC practices that was recently acquired by Hint Health. That has been a wild ride to say the least. We have 3 young kids and love anything in the mountains here in Colorado.
