In this episode of Physicians Hanging a Shingle, we’re diving into one of the most overlooked — yet essential — parts of launching your private practice: your mission statement.


Before you choose a name, sign a lease, or hire a team… you need a clear understanding of your purpose.


I’ll walk you through 5 key questions that will help you craft a mission statement that actually means something — one that aligns with your values, speaks to your ideal patient, and guides every decision you make as a business owner.


Whether you're in the early planning stages or already getting your ducks in a row, this episode will help you start your practice with clarity and confidence.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why most physicians skip this step — and why you shouldn’t

How your mission statement shapes every part of your practice

The 5 simple questions that will help you write your mission

How to turn your answers into a clear, compelling statement
