_____ Physicians often feel stuck in traditional roles, but there are countless non-clinical and non-traditional career paths available. In this episode, Dr. John Jurica shares his experiences as a hospital CMO, entrepreneur, and consultant. With host Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, Dr. Jurica discusses the growing demand for alternative careers, the mindset shift required to break free from conventional paths, and the rise of remote opportunities post-pandemic.

They explore the top non-traditional careers for physicians today, highlighting how the pandemic accelerated the rise of remote medical jobs. From new graduates to retirees, more physicians are seeking alternative paths, driven by the need for flexibility and control. They discuss the importance of building a scalable, sellable business and the benefits of medical writing, legal consulting, and running a healthcare-related business as viable, rewarding career options.

Three Actionable Takeaways:

1️. Mindset Shift is Key – Leaving traditional medicine requires a shift from employee to entrepreneur. Physicians must embrace business skills and seek mentorship. 2️. Leverage Existing Skills – Careers like medical writing, consulting, and telemedicine allow physicians to use their expertise in new ways without starting from scratch. 3. Build an Asset, Not Just a Job – Physicians who create scalable businesses, like med spas or senior care services, can eventually sell them for significant profit.
