Description

Can an optometrist build a thriving, multi-location medical practice without corporate backing — or is burnout inevitable?

Many physicians today are searching for autonomy, flexibility, and meaning — but feel trapped between overwork and under-compensation. In this episode, you'll hear what it really takes to stay independent in medicine (particularly in an optometry practice) while avoiding burnout, and building something that lasts.

  • Discover the real cost — and payoff — of building your own medical practice from the ground up.
  • Learn why “work-life balance” might be killing your momentum more than saving your sanity.
  • Get a behind-the-scenes look at how to scale without selling out to private equity or large hospital systems.

Listen now to learn how to beat burnout and build a profitable, resilient medical practice that you actually love.
