    #81: How to Build Your Personal Brand w/Dr. Ernesto Gutierrez

    It’s never been easier to start building your personal brand as a physician and to take the steps towards financial freedom and career autonomy.

    #80: Why Free Market? w/ Dr. Keith Smith

    Since 1997, Dr. Keith Smith has been pushing back against the status quo by creating America’s first free market surgery center (The Surgery Center of Oklahoma) and founding the Free Market Medical Association, now with more than 30 chapters throughout the country. Dr. Smith’s convictions for transparency and integrity caused him to thoroughly examine the “system” he was a part of and make changes where he could – even if that meant leaving modern medical practice to pursue a different ideal. Join us for this episode of Branch Out, as Dr. Smith and Larson (possibly Dr. Smith’s biggest fan) discuss the important ideologies behind direct care and physician independence.
