The Kinked Wire Episode 23: Launching and running an office-based lab | Guest: Bret Wiechmann
While I do understand that there may be this idea out there, that the OBL is some magical place, the truth is that I think the ideal scenario is what I have—which is practicing on both sides of the street, so to speak. Because they each pose their own challenges and they each have their own benefits. —Bret Wiechmann, MD, FSIR
Warren Krackov, MD, FSIR, speaks with interventional radiologist Bret Wiechmann, MD, FSIR, about how he launched his office-based laboratory (OBL), how other IRs might do the same, and the prospects for trainees to enter this space.
