Dr. Maryal Concepcion is a Filipinx creator and connector. She discovered her love of being a cradle-to-grave family physician while at Creighton Med School on a rotation in Superior, NE. She trained for residency in Modesto, preparing to be a rural family doc, then moved to rural Northern CA after residency. She worked in the broken corporate model of medicine because she did not know any other option than to be employed.
Then, she learned about DPC, and the bands holding her wings were clipped. Now she flies free as a Direct Primary Care physician, able to practice medicine how she has always wanted to. With this freedom, she is charged up to share with other physicians the power of the Direct Primary Care model. She will tell any and all about DPC because the model is truly at the core of how we will take back healthcare.

In today's Doctors Changing Medicine podcast episode, I interview Dr. Ann Huntington.
Ann Huntington, MD, FACP, is an Internal Medicine Hospitalist physician. She has expertise in quality, peer review, privileging, credentials, and leadership during the pandemic.
She is the CEO of Give More Naturally where she teaches lifestyle and integrative medicine tools. With special expertise in the field of essential oils, she created a CME course for physicians on the science and safety of essential oils as an integrative tool.
Her website is www.givemorenaturally.com, and you can also connect via FB, IG, and LinkedIn.
A few things to keep in mind: Essential oils are not FDA approved to treat, cure, diagnose, or prevent disease. What Dr. Huntington shares should not be taken as medical advice and does not constitute a physician-patient relationship.
In today's Doctors Changing Medicine podcast episode, I interview Dr. Patricia Morgan.
Dr. Patricia Morgan (aka Dr. Pat, Dr. Pat Morgan) is a pediatrician, board certified in both general pediatrics and child abuse. From the age of 11 years old, Dr. Pat knew she wanted to be a pediatrician.
She did not know that her path would lead her to care for children where there were concerns for child abuse and neglect. For more than 23 years, she has shared the message of body safety during medical evaluations, and she hopes that her book, "The Doctor Says: Let's Talk About Body Safety," helps by reaching many more children and families.

She spends countless hours in the clinic meeting with parents and children alike to help them process pain points in their relationship and navigate towards a healthier dynamic in their homes.

Over the years, I have noticed that many physicians are falling into the trap of doing the same things yet expecting different results. And in this episode, I share with you pointers that will help you avoid falling into this trap as it is costing physicians a lot. Whether you are using the hope strategy or failing to implement what you learn, please note that this is not about judgment. The thing is, everything can change for physicians if we step out of our comfort zone, if we do things that we've never done before. And we don't have to have it all figured out!

By now, you should be convinced (I hope!) that video is the most personal and engaging creative medium that exists today.

Being able to show up live on camera is a skill. A skill that can be learned. And the best part? It's not tied to being an introvert or an extrovert. As an introvert who has done over 700 videos and hundreds of live sessions, I can assure you it is possible. I started out as a socially awkward, super shy, introverted introvert, and it took me two years from when I knew I should do videos for my business to finally do my first video. And I want to make sure that that is not your experience because the fastest way to grow your business is through video.

Today's episode is a unique one. If you've been here long enough, you would know that I'm really big on showcasing physicians who are really doing well as physician entrepreneurs.
We recently had a bonus session of the EntreMD Live, and we got to interview seven doctors from the Entrepreneur Business School, and I really want to share their stories with you. I want you to hear about doctors who wanted to start a business and they thought they couldn't pull it off, or they wanted to grow a business and they didn't think it was possible. You will hear from doctors who are in private practice, doctors who are coaches, doctors who are running startups, and even those who are veterans. It's such a fantastic conversation, and I hope it gives you a different perspective of what is possible for you.

Did you know that the suicide rate of women physicians is 130% higher than that of the general population? Physicians hold the highest rate of suicide compared to any other profession. Being high functioning people and showing up for work like physicians keeps people from noticing that sometimes they need help and dolefully fall deep into high functioning depression.
In this episode, I speak to Dr. Jeannie Lawrence, a Psychiatrist, Psychotherapist, life coach, blogger, and owner of a coaching program for Women Physicians.

Several years ago, Dr. Laura Fortner got sued for medical malpractice even though she went above and beyond for that patient. She has felt the shame, loneliness, anger, doubt, fear, and helplessness that comes with a medical malpractice lawsuit. As she was going through that journey, Dr. Fortner realized one thing - the culture of medicine and how it has been associated with perfectionism.
With the help of a life coach, Dr. Fortner has since learned the tools to overcome the anger, fear, isolation, shame, and self-doubt that crept back into her brain. She is now at peace with whatever happens with her lawsuit, and is on a mission to help other physicians going through the same thing. She helps physicians equip themselves to the legal system and prepares them for the rollercoaster ride.

Most of us go through intense years of medical school, residency and training with one ultimate goal in mind - to become doctors. But what happens if, after all those years, you realize that becoming a doctor isn't your calling anymore? Are there options? Can you pursue something else and still be happy and fulfilled?
In today's episode, I speak with Dr. Michelle Mudge-Riley, a consultant, coach, and entrepreneur. She is the CEO and Founder of Physicians Helping Physicians LLC where she has spent the past 17 years assisting physicians and medical students with career strategy. Given that she was one of the early pioneers for physicians embarking on non-clinical careers, Dr. Mudge-Riley has helped hundreds of physicians with career transition and skills diversification. She explores some of the steps that can be taken to reduce our fears, address our mindset and expedite the process of finding a new calling.

It all started when Katie Deming, MD, went undercover at a boutique near her office. As a radiation oncologist, Dr. Deming wanted to test first-hand the types of bras on the market for women who had undergone radiation therapy for breast cancer. What she saw made her decide that she was never going to send her patients to that boutique. The bras had all the wrong features - they were scratchy and had an elastic that would irritate the skin.
Despite having zero designer experience, Dr. Deming saw a gap that needed to be filled. That was just the beginning of her years-long journey that led her to create MakeMerry, a first-of-its-kind online shop with bras designed specifically for women undergoing radiation treatment.
In today's episode, Dr. Deming shares all about how she got started developing her clothing line and all she has learned along the way. Don’t miss out as she shares tips for starting your own business as a physician as well!

Why is burnout so common among physicians? Is it because we are taught to work pretty much until we drop? Last year alone, 42% of hospital physicians reported burnout! This number is surprisingly high, given that we as physicians are constantly recommending mental health support to our patients. It's high time we normalized this kind of support too!
In today's episode, I am joined by Dr. Amelia Bueche, a DO who is a specialist in Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine. She is on a mission to nurture health and empower patients to realize their amazing inherent capacity. Dr. Bueche is the founder of This Osteopathic Life and also the brain behind Coaching For Institutions (CFI), a collective of physicians trained as coaches specializing in the creation and implementation of programs to bring health to medicine through coaching. Through these organizations, she is tackling the problem of burnout on an individual and institutional level. She discusses the biggest contributors to burnout and the power of coaching.
If you are looking to develop immunity against burnout and find success in your medical career, this episode is for you!

Who would have thought that Dr. Nina Maouelainin, originally from Morocco, would successfully pursue her dream of becoming a physician in the USA? Not even herself!
After completing medical school, she went on the complete her residency and subsequently a fellowship program in Pulmonary Disease and Critical Care Medicine. Dr. Maouelainin met phenomenal mentors that led one of the first accredited interventional pulmonology fellowships at a time when the field of interventional pulmonology was in its infancy. She later noticed a gap in the medical field that needed to be filled, which led to her establish the first successfully run private interventional pulmonology program in Philadelphia in 2011, drawing upon her extensive training in the field and program leadership experience.
Join us in today’s episode as Dr. Maouelainin shares her personal journey in increasing lung cancer awareness. You might want to have a pen and paper close to you!

Health disparities across racial and ethnic groups have remained remarkably persistent in spite of the changes in many facets of the society over that period. This is one of the reasons why Dr. Shenelle Wilson founded Urology Unbound, a non- profit organization that seeks to increase the representation of black surgeons in the field of urology.
In today’s episode, Dr. Wilson shares about the work she’s doing towards changing the Urology landscape and her interesting journey from nursing all the way to Urology. If Dr. Wilson did it, so can you!
Tune in for a wake-up call on pursuing your dream and being committed to changing the lives of others!

While contracts are part and parcel of any doctor’s career progression, negotiating them can be an emotionally fraught process. Many doctors would rather not negotiate, leaving them voluntarily underpaid and undervalued. To help you get more comfortable with negotiation, I speak with Dr. Linda Street in today’s episode.
Dr. Street is not only a maternal fetal medicine specialist, but also a coach who specializes in helping women negotiate higher salaries, sign bonuses, and the other intangibles that sweeten the deal, regardless of whether you’re starting a new job or discussing the terms of a contract renewal. Dr. Street’s wake-up call came when she realized that her colleague was six figures more than she was, yet they were seeing pretty much similar clinical volumes! She had sold herself short when she signed her contract.
There is so much pain and suffering that goes into negotiating contracts. If you are ready to take control, negotiate your contracts like a boss and practice medicine on your terms, this episode is for you!
