How to Become a Debt-Free Direct Care Physician

Dr. James Hawkes grew up in a large family. His father was a U.S. diplomat, which exposed him to different models of healthcare. In addition to exposure, his grandmother encouraged him to become a doctor. He followed her recommendation, but to his surprise the definition of a good doctor wasn’t about improving patients’ quality of life, it was about hierarchies, documentation, administrative requirements, and quality measures. 

Shortly after saying goodbye to the traditional healthcare model, he launched his own direct care practice. Fast forward to today, he is a 100% debt free direct care physician. He shares his story of how it’s possible to achieve this goal.
