  • Forget Shared Practices

    After hearing the billionaire podcast, I lost all respect for Shared Practices. The owners are complete sociopaths.

  • Skeptical

    They teach good principles, but I’ve personally heard a lot of horror stories from their past staff members. Stories of practices that suddenly close giving no notice to patients or staff, broken promises, and a general vibe of not being as patient-centered as they claim to be.

    Again, I feel like the principles they teach are good, but it may be beneficial to have a healthy dose of skepticism due to their real-world actions.
