In this episode, I have a fun conversation with Dr. Lara Salyer. She is a family physician based in southern Wisconsin who left her employment in a traditional medical practice, and created her ideal consulting practice serving patients in a new way.
She obtained training and certification in funtional medicine and opened a cash-based practice, incorporating holistic methods. As she did so, she brought her creativity into the process. She explains the planning that went into building a truly unique consulting practice that incorporates everything she enjoys about medicine and none of the frustrating aspects that led her to burnout.
We get into the details of her transition (engaging an attorrney, setting up her business, branding, and use of social media), and how online teaching and group visits contribute to her success. Finally, we learn about her side gigs: speaking engagements to young physicians, and an online program she designed to help physicians regain some of their lost creativity called Right Brain Rescue.
As always, you can listen on any podcast app and on the show notes at vitalpe.net/episode120, where you can also find a transcript and links to resources mentioned in interview.
