Do you dream of running your own medical practice but don't know where to start? Medical schools often don't teach up-and-coming doctors everything they need to know about how to establish an independent practice. Start & Run a Medical Practice is written by a medical doctor, but the advice offered is also relevant to those in similar professions, such as chiropractors, dentists, naturopaths, optometrists, osteopaths, podiatrists, psychologists, veterinarians, and other health-care professionals. This book is a great guide for anyone who wants to open their own practice, whether they're a fully-qualified professional looking for a change or just thinking about pursuing a career in health care and want to do some initial research. Author Dr. Michael Clifford Fabian walks readers through in-depth discussions of business basics. It provides helpful pointers, and there are many resources and checklists provided on the CD-ROM (for use on a Windows-based PC).
