Avoiding Politics and Higher Overhead Doctors calling us for help in transitioning to private practice describe their frustration with the politics and higher overhead of the overall practice operations of larger organizational models. These doctors feel they can better control the direction of their practices, while experiencing lower overhead than that of large group settings. We helped an employed internist set up a solo practice, where in three years he’s reached $254,000 in profit, $75,000 more than he’d received as an employee. He’s brought in a second physician, also making the transition from institutional employment, who’s on target to double his last year’s earnings from his previous employer. Call us to arrange a private practice feasibility consultation to help you determine if you can enjoy a private practice with a better financial result.
