*Open to anyone’s thoughts. Seeking those with firsthand experience.*
Going to Graduate as a Quadruple Amputee from a Private DO school in 2025. (both arms and legs = $450,000). I am almost totally set on FM. Also never considered opening my own practice until speaking with other practice owners recently.
Can/Should I do it with that debt?
Should I focus on paying it down some/entirely first By working for a group first?
If I do this, how realistic is it to retain a decent number of patient panel in my own practice Given I open A Practice Close by? (non-competes common?)
How important is this?
Costs Of a new practice?
Pros/Cons? Is it a thing of the past?
Recommended Books For a business-ignorant medical student?
*open to being teased for my lack of understanding regarding these questions^*
