74 - Physicians and Business People: Polar Opposites or One in the Same? An interview with Dr. Francisco Arredondo

Can physicians be business people? It’s not a part of their medical training. And medical problem solving isn’t exactly like business problem solving. So is it even possible for successful physicians to be equally successful entrepreneurs?

On this episode of Inside Reproductive Health, Griffin talks to Dr. Francisco Arredondo, founder of RMA of Texas and author of his upcoming book, MedikalPreneur. Dr. Arredondo digs into a few concepts discussed in his book, focusing mainly on the similarities and differences between the traditional physician and the traditional entrepreneur. Listen to find out what it takes for physicians who wish to also be entrepreneurs in the fertility field to be successful in both endeavors.

66 - Can Fertility Clinics Support New Doctors and Staff after the COVID-19 Pandemic?

, ,

The past several weeks have brought about new decisions that clinics never thought they’d have to face. Pausing treatments for almost all patients, furloughing or laying-off staff because of that pause, and so many other never-before-seen challenges. Hopefully, the light at the end of the tunnel is coming and clinics can get back to business as (almost) usual. But what about all the doctors in limbo? Doctors are coming out of fellowship, ready to make a difference in the lives of thousands of patients, but will they have a place to go when restrictions are lifted?

Continuing in our COVID-19 Business Response Series on Inside Reproductive Health, Griffin was joined by Dr. Ruben Alvero of Stanford University Medical Center, Dr. Angie Beltsos of VIOS Fertility Institute, and TJ Farnsworth of Inception Fertility Ventures. Together, they take a look at what will happen once clinics reopen: Will they be able to operate normally? Will contracts from fellows be honored? Will more staff be needed if a backlog of patients is ready to start treatment? These questions and more are discussed among the panelists, hopefully shedding a positive light on the future of clinics after COVID-19.
