Checklist to launch

"But all I know how to do is practice medicine.

If you can take care of complex medical illness, you can learn to run a practice. It's not that hard. 

Entrepreneurship and practice management are learned skills.  Just like "see one, do one, teach one," you will be surrounded by peers who are creating their own practices and mentors who have already walked through this process.  

I'm Dr. Kara Pepper. 

After years of burning out trying to create change within my large hospital-owned group, I left my wildly successful practice mid-career to step out on my own. 

As one of Atlanta's Top Docs, I knew how I wanted to practice medicine and how my patients deserved to be treated - but the moral injury of continuously filling the gaps of a broken system was overwhelming. 

Within two years, I grew my solo, 18-state telemedicine practice, opened a brick and mortar office, became a consultant for organizations, and started a podcast for physicians who were starting their own micro practices.  

Medicine is a team sport, and growing your own practice is best done in community.  Backed by a team of colleagues, coaches, and experts, I am committed to support you as you change the future of health care.  

You deserve to practice medicine in a way that is healing for you AND your patients.  

Kara is great! She has worked with a variety of different clients and problems, so she is able to offer coaching and advice on a broad range of topics. She doesn't just focus on self-improvement. She also helps me to recognize how the system and world that I live can be "broken" or poorly constructed, and that I can't take all of this personally and to mean that I am somehow failing. She helps you to see how you may need to "break the rules" and be a change agent for yourself (and those around you).

I loved Kara's approach to my specific needs which were always changing. There were overarching themes, but I loved the ability for us to switch gears and focus on whatever my needs were each session. I love her big picture perspective and really appreciate the follow up emails I would receive, reinforcing things we talked about and things to work on. I cannot say enough good things about working with Kara and how much growth I have accomplished. I feel it set a strong stage for my own continued personal growth and development.

 

My patients have definitely benefitted in that I am more patient and present in my interactions with them and families. This work allowed me to back up and see bigger pictures, in multiple ways. I also feel my partnership has benefitted in my finding my own strengths again and feeling more confident in myself. In a way, I feel I'm "coming back" to myself - my mind is calmer, and my creativity is re-emerging. There is no way to thank Kara enough for that. It impacts ALL of my relationships and my own relationship to my work and personal time.

 

If you want to practice medicine on your terms, hold true to your vision and enjoy your life, work with Kara.
