Small business ideas for doctors: how you can be a doctor and an entrepreneur.

If you are searching for small business ideas for doctors then you need to tune in to this episode.

I'm talking with Dr Behrooz Behbod, The Entrepreneur’s Doctor, one of the successful medical doctors in business about how he supports health professionals to move successfully into the business space without burnout.

In this reflective discussion he explains how creating the space to think is a vital element for medical doctors in business who want to innovate and discusses how as an entrepreneur, you have the freedom to design a business conducive to the world that you want to be in and fulfills your work life balance needs.

 

Listen in to hear more about why this is a great career opportunity for doctors.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• You are always looking to grow and improve
• I was interested in entrepreneurship and began by informally helping others
• I was risk-averse so started with a side hustle sharing my expertise and wisdom
• I’m a public health clinician and as part of that role I coach, teach, consult and mentor
• What determines our health is looking beyond the hospital setting
• We need research as a skillset but the new  knowledge needs to be used to innovate and it requires entrepreneurship to make it happen
• We all share common threads, seeing the problem and wanting to find a solution
• Slowing down and creating space is the key to being able to see things more clearly and think

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s a part-time business, but I really love it’

‘We have to ride that wave and carry on being innovative in our careers’

‘There is a difference between time to think and time to just be and I’ve found the ideas come from the latter’
