"Opening and Closing a Family Medicine Career with Direct Primary Care (DPC)"

Dr Jonas, your host, is excited to interview Lily White, MD about the start of her Direct Primary Care practice in the Cleveland area at Rocky River.  Empowered Health DPC opens in October, 2023  https://www.empoweredhealthdpc.com/ Lily decided early in her career to be a holistic physician.  She will explain how that happened and what path she followed to follow her dream into her first practice.  She will speak of medical school at Wright State and her Family Medicine Residency at the Cleveland Clinic, revealing some highs and lows as she explored the options available to Family Physicians who are just launching into post residency positions. She is a leader and an author.  We'll hear about those aspects of her training years.  And her life. Dr. Jonas also has a DPC practice- Neighborly Family Medicine in Beavercreek, OH.  It's been 50 years since he started medical school at Ohio State.  He's ready to wind down and get another holistic minded Family Physician to take over his practice.  He's interested in hearing about how Lily sees her future in DPC and comparing how a start up career differs from a winding down career. They worked together at Open Arms Health Clinic- a free clinic in Bellbrook, OH where Lily founded Paths to Wellness, a lifestyle counceling program with medical and psychology students at WSU. They have shared in planning and presenting the DPC Ohio Unsummit last February and are repeating for the 10th Unsummit February 17, 2024 in Dublin, Ohio.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dr-synonymous-show--6530014/support.
