A family medicine playbook to earn a million dollars

Join us on this episode as we talk with Tod Stillson, a family physician and entrepreneur, who has successfully transitioned from traditional employment to becoming a high-earning independent contractor. Tod shares his journey, revealing the limitations of traditional employment models in primary care and how he broke free to thrive in a "third space" within the system. Learn about his innovative approach to monetizing professional services, optimizing office workflows, and strategically investing in real estate. Discover the unique opportunities he found practicing in a rural setting and gain insights into how you, too, can navigate the path to financial and professional success in today's health care landscape. Tod Stillson is a family physician, entrepreneur, and Amazon best-selling author of Doctor Incorporated: Stop the Insanity of Traditional Employment and Preserve Your Professional Autonomy.
