Startup DPC Book Gets a Shout out from a Successful DPC Doctor

The Startup DPC Book is Helping Doctors Start and Grow their Direct primary care practices

This week, a successful DPC Doctor, Peter Cashio, MD, gave a big shout out to the Startup DPC Book:

Starting on the Paul Thomas Social Media Marketing plan today. If you haven't picked up a copy of his book, Startup DPC, I HIGHLY recommend it. Lots of great nuts and bolts "how to" action items to move things forwards.

Note: this review and plug was completely unsolicited. Dr. Thomas provide what my entrepreneur friends call "high value."

Startup DPC Book Gets Eleven 5-star Reviews on Amazon

This week, the Startup DPC Book reached eleven 5-star reviews on Amazon. Here’s what one reviewer had to say:

As a student of business in the business of healthcare, one challenge I have faced is helping physicians "get" core business concepts. Medical training and the path to success is based on perfection (or near perfection). After all, who wants to be treated by a physician that is right some of the time! This training however makes it challenging for most doctors to accept standard business concepts such as risk vs. reward, perfect is the enemy of good, and so forth. And I've never personally witnessed a physician willing to "meet a patient where they are!"

There are hundreds of things to learn from Dr. Paul Thomas in this book. But if there is one thing a budding DPC doc should take away from this excellent book, it is to meet your patient where they are. I am confident if you do the basics correctly and live by this simple phrase, you will grow your practice quickly and retain your patients in an enduring manner.

Excellent work Dr. Thomas!

Thanks

Today I received the first copies of the published Startup DPC book!! 📖

It’s an amazing feeling to hold this book 📚 in my hands, as it’s been the culmination of 4 years of knowledge and experience, and 3 years of writing and documenting the process.

It’s much bigger and longer than I thought it would be, but I guess I had a lot to say 💁🏻‍♂️

It’s my sincere hope that this book is transformative for those doctors 🥼 who want to take back medicine 💊 🔬 for the sake of their patients and the communities that they serve.

Here’s to your good health, and to a better health care system that awaits us, if we choose to reach for it.

It was a labor of love - for the love of our patients, for the love of our communities, and for the love of my physician colleagues, so that they have to tools and knowledge to truly take care of their patients on their own terms.

Together, we can build a more compassionate and sustainable health care systems that focuses on caring for people and valuing the patient-doctor relationship.
