“I’ve been doing this with specialists and primary care doctors and the innovation there is just amazing. And the opportunity to live the life that you want to lead is more amazing still.” - Dr. Tom Davis MD FAAFP
Telemedicine is a rapidly growing field, and in this episode Dr. Jen Barna speaks with telemedicine expert, Dr. Tom Davis. Entrepreneur, mentor, speaker, and author, Dr. Tom Davis talks about his journey into telemedicine and how this enables him to work from the road, enjoying his freedom while slow traveling. Dr. Davis is an authority on telemedicine and he has the answers to your questions. You will hear why telemedicine is such an attractive option for doctors as well as how it can open you up to do the things you love while still earning a great salary. It has given Dr. Davis freedom to practice while traveling all over the world with his wife and two dogs. Is telemedicine for you? Please let us know!
After hanging his shingle in a small town on the Missouri River in 1994, Dr. Tom Davis and his partners leveraged one of the first total-risk Medicare Advantage contracts into the creation of a regional health system. After 18 years of wonderfully autonomous practice, Dr. Davis sold his health system to a regional competitor for $132m and began traveling the country with one goal, using the lessons learned to mentor other clinicians and their organizations in how to quit the treadmill and practice with joy. Telemedicine, cash-pay revenue streams, value-based healthcare, and Dr. Davis’ unique, practical perspective has helped more than a million patients receive better care and left thousands of clinicians more fulfilled. He currently shares his wisdom in his online community app NewScript, available on Apple and Google play.
Mentor, Speaker, Author---Dr. Davis consistently releases great high-value content across his many channels so clinicians can serve their patients sustainably and with joy.
