This episode is back to my interview series of inspiring women physician leaders.
Dr. Martha Rodriguez is one such leader I have known for several years.
At the time of this recording several months ago, Dr. Rodriguez owned and operated her private practice at a state-of-the-art facility she coined, MMR Healthcare. Her field of specialty is geriatric care and making patients' golden years shine. MMR Healthcare has been PCMH recognized since 2014. In 2012, she co-founded one of the highest performing Accountable Care Organizations in the country and served as its Chairman of the Board until the end of 2016. With coordination of care at the frontlines of every patient visit, she works to ignite the path towards healthcare excellence. 

Her other passion is leadership. She was the medical director of several skilled, assisted, and independent living facilities for many years. 

She holds several other leadership positions including Palm Beach County Medical Society President and  Co-Chair of the Palm Beach Medical Society Leadership Academy.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Rodriguez loves to spend time with her family and go to the beach. Her greatest pastime is playing with her first granddaughter.

As a physician juggling clinical, administrative responsibilities, and mom duties, I felt constantly off balance. 

The perpetual mom-guilt and physician guilt haunted me whenever I prioritized one over the other.

Setting goals for the New Year or periodically during the year is an exciting activity because we feel we are resetting and starting with a clear sense of direction and purpose.

But often, although we start off with great intentions, we fall off halfway through the month for a variety of reasons. I know, because I have followed the same pattern over and over, with not just New Year Resolutions but throughout the year. 

That is why, this New Year I am going to do something different. I am going to use new and proven tools to help me take control of my life and schedule.

Sometimes it takes that external person to help you look at your weak spots and coach you and hold you accountable to reach your full potential as you can hear in this episode.

Do men and women physicians get paid differently?

Some would say yes. Some would categorically deny that such a thing exists.

Like most things, I suspect the answer is somewhere in between. 
That it does exist in many practices, and there may be some that are very fair.
How would you know? 
And what can you do about it?

In this episode, I talk about 7 things I wish I had known at the beginning of my career that I would have done differently.
