If you’re a doctor building anything outside the hospital, telemedicine, side gigs, coaching, consulting, micro-practice-this episode is your warning label and your permission slip.

I sit down with healthcare compliance expert Phoebe Gutierrez, a former state regulator who now helps physicians build legitimate, protected, scalable businesses without stepping on legal landmines they didn’t know existed.

This is the episode I wish I had heard three years ago, before making the mistakes that cost me time, money, sleep, and about a half-million dollars in stupid tax.

We get into the stuff no one teaches doctors but absolutely should:


What We Cover:

  • Why physicians are held to a different standard than non-medical founders

  • Which compliance mistakes can quietly tank your practice before you even launch

  • The hidden risks behind telemedicine, compounding, and corporate practice of medicine rules

  • How to protect your income from malpractice suits (hint: separate your entities)

  • Why lawyers don’t give you answers-they give you rules

  • How to translate “fuzzy” regulations into real, day-to-day operations

  • What physicians get wrong when forming LLCs, MSOs, DBAs, and payment workflows

  • How to build a business without needing a 20-year-old legal dictionary and a glass of wine

  • The simple decisions that save you six figures in cleanup later

Whether you want a small panel, a micro-practice, a digital product, or a nationwide telehealth company, the same truth applies: it’s cheaper to do it right from day one.

This episode will save you months of cleanup, thousands of dollars, and more headaches than you can imagine.

Listen now-your future self (and your accountant) will thank you.
