3 reasons why you should take your profit first, before paying expenses
As a business owner, you have one primary role: Make money. I hate to put it in such callous terms, but that’s the primary aim of any business.

You have to have a passion for caring for your patients.

Taking the extra 10 minutes with a patient, calling insurance companies to advocate for those in our care, in policy meetings trying to reshape healthcare to serve the needs of the sick, and not corporations and middlemen.

You would have a director of human resources, a chief operations officer, a chief financial officer, and probably ten other people to manage different parts of the business.

I recently spoke with a colleague who transitioned out of the military in the last year. He was previously excited about his new job opportunity, but now a year later, he tells me, “I hate civilian medicine.” I was surprised because he had been excited about the opportunity to teach in a residency program again.

Residents and fellows around the country have bought into the “medical training myth.” The myth states: “Life will get so much better when I finish residency/fellowship.” Sadly, too many house staff buy into this false belief and experience tremendous letdown when they graduate. Residents often see their attending stroll into the team room with a cup of coffee at 8 a.m., ready to round. Meanwhile, they think, “I’ve been here for hours, and he just shows up now?
