It's not hard to deliver good care to a patient but the odds are stacked against us with multitasking and a busy medical practice. Here are a few ways that you can shine in front of your patients and a few things not to do.

In the health insurance model, the health insurance company sends you the patient, but in private practice you have to go out and find your own patients. Your ideal patients often have certain habits in common and that's where your source of the funnel is.

Standing out is a good thing in medicine - usually. When you are doing a great job as a doctor, your peers and patients will give you subtle and not-so-subtle feedback which is worth paying attention to. And if you are doing a superb job as a doctor in a particular healthcare system but that system can't accommodate your ongoing improvement, it might be time to leave.

The healthcare economy has been on an upswing for a long, long time. A lot of profits have been made more than ever before and one thing we know is that when the few are profiting and the poor are screaming foul, something is gonna give. Whether it's new legislature or a bursting bubble or a new system replacing the old one or full economic collapse, there is something coming down that many might have a hard time recognizing early and be even less prepared for.

There is no magic to being a CEO and though it may not be something that's on your radar, your skills are well suited for that role. And CEOs can be involved in some incredible companies, making a big different in healthcare.

I'm sensitive to decision fatigue. Having to choose our next destination is hard enough, much less, having to choose the flight, exact location in the city, transportation, accommodation, and what to take with us.

Being human I can complain about nearly anything. But having spent nearly 6 months now in Long Beach, it feels as though I'm uprooting myself.

There is a time in our lives when working full-time is justified and even welcome. I suspect that for most it'll be the first decade of their career and for a few the last decade, too.

But, right now, working full-time comes at a cost that I'm not sure I'm willing to pay in my mid-40s.

For the next 5 days, I'm doing the primary care thing, working in a private practice seeing insured patients. It's been great so far, not hard. But it is quite different from the urgent care stuff I do. I could do it indefinitely, but there is no way I could do it full-time like this.

The state medical board will care a lot about what kind of sex you engage in and with whom. Not right off the bat, but if a pissed off lover reports you, especially if you're a man, especially if you're black or middle eastern, be ready for an inquision.

This is a rough podcast episode to listen to but no need to sugarcoat things.

Should healthcare be a meritocracy? Perhaps. But it's first a business and trying to make it be anything other than a business may lead to frustration.

However, as a physician if the goal is to enjoy what you do and offer value to patients, there are lots of microclimates you can practice in.
