Putting yourself online means opening yourself up to criticism, but not every comment deserves your attention. Dr. Dustin Portela breaks down how physicians can navigate negative comments, know when to engage versus block, and set boundaries that protect their patients, personal lives, and time. Plus, he shares why finding your own voice and letting go of perfectionism is key to building a sustainable presence on social media.Follow us on Instagram: @medcreator101Subscribe to our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@MedCreator101Mimi Banks: @mimibanks | @mbsocial.agency Dr. Portela: Instagram: @drdustinportela | TikTok: @drdustinportelaTools and Creator Must-Haves:CapCut: https://capcutaffiliateprogram.pxf.io/09bxrLGimbal: https://amzn.to/3QEu6ZOAnker External battery charger: https://amzn.to/3DdtBTiCar mount: https://amzn.to/4bkEu2kCar mount (portable): https://amzn.to/3EVgNl8DJI Osmo Camera: https://amzn.to/43eptwPDJI Osmo Mic: https://amzn.to/44WJFnCRing light (portable): https://amzn.to/43joyvmRing light: https://amzn.to/4ikDBcdNikon DLSR Camera: https://amzn.to/3FbK0rR

You didn't build a practice by guessing, and your content strategy shouldn't run on guesswork either. In this Med Creator Minute, Dr. Dustin Portela reveals why consistent posting alone doesn't guarantee growth and what you should look out for: a strong hook in the first three seconds, a retention graph most people never check, and metrics like shares and saves that matter more than follower count. If you're an injector, dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or practice owner trying to figure out whether your numbers actually mean anything, this episode breaks down exactly which metrics predict real growth.Ready to stop drafting and start publishing?Join The Content Rotation, a free 5-day challenge that gives you the prompts + guardrails to publish one post every day.Sign up free at MedCreator101.com.Follow us on Instagram: @medcreator101Subscribe to our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@MedCreator101Mimi Banks: @mimibanks | @mbsocial.agency Dr. Portela: Instagram: @drdustinportela | TikTok: @drdustinportelaTools and Creator Must-Haves:CapCut: https://capcutaffiliateprogram.pxf.io/09bxrLGimbal: https://amzn.to/3QEu6ZOAnker External battery charger: https://amzn.to/3DdtBTiCar mount: https://amzn.to/4bkEu2kCar mount (portable): https://amzn.to/3EVgNl8DJI Osmo Camera: https://amzn.to/43eptwPDJI Osmo Mic: https://amzn.to/44WJFnCRing light (portable): https://amzn.to/43joyvmRing light: https://amzn.to/4ikDBcdNikon DLSR Camera: https://amzn.to/3FbK0rR
Dr. Chris Tomassian posted his first dermatology video in a poorly lit bathroom and got four views. Today, he has nearly 3 million followers, and a thriving practice built on the back of it. Dr. Tomassian, founder of the Dermatology Collective, joins Dr. Dustin Portela and Mimi Banks to share how he turned raw, unscripted content into a brand bigger than the feed. From surviving pushback in residency to using social proof to open his own practice (with a second location on the way), Chris shares why simplicity beats strategy, why chasing virality is a trap, and why staying consistent matters more than any single video's performance.Follow us on Instagram: @medcreator101Subscribe to our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@MedCreator101Mimi Banks: @mimibanks | @mbsocial.agencyDr. Portela: Instagram: @drdustinportela | TikTok: @drdustinportelaDr. Tomassian: Instagram: @dr.tomassian | TikTok: @dr.tomassian | YouTube: @dr.tomassianDevelop your skills: Enroll in medcreator101.comTools and Creator Must-Haves:CapCut: https://capcutaffiliateprogram.pxf.io/09bxrLGimbal: https://amzn.to/3QEu6ZOAnker External battery charger: https://amzn.to/3DdtBTiCar mount: https://amzn.to/4bkEu2kCar mount (portable): https://amzn.to/3EVgNl8DJI Osmo Camera: https://amzn.to/43eptwPDJI Osmo Mic: https://amzn.to/44WJFnCRing light (portable): https://amzn.to/43joyvmRing light: https://amzn.to/4ikDBcdNikon DLSR Camera: https://amzn.to/3FbK0rR
