In this episode I chat with Dr. Katie Pencek, a board-certified internist and former hospitalist, about her micropractice journey including

• How and why she transitioned from hospital medicine to primary care
• What it was like starting a panel from scratch in a city she had never practiced in
• How she she got 10 patients signed up in the first week despite spending almost nothing on marketing 
• What she wishes she spent less time stressing about
