The assigned lecture this week is ‘Practice Options for New Practitioners’ by John Guiliana, DPM, MS. As a Board Certified Podiatrist who also holds a Masters in Healthcare Management, Dr. Guiliana is in a unique position to provide some very insightful practice management advice. This 43 minute lecture is packed with real-world info that can better prepare you for the future.

Having helped numerous residents through the process myself, the transition from residency into a practice environment is certainly a challenge. There is no shortage of unsolicited advice from your peers on what you should and should not do, but who and what do you believe? How do you know that something which might work so well for another will work at all for you? How do you even decide between associateship, partnership, opening up on your own, working within a large health system, or perhaps even academia?

Obviously there are no easy answers here, but the recommended lecture this week will be a great starting place for ideas. My other key point of advice is that your first job doesn’t have to be absolutely perfect. By this, I mean that many graduating residents don’t want to accept a possible practice opportunity unless the stars seem to line up and everything about the job is absolutely perfect. This just doesn’t happen often, and you probably should consider getting yourself a good job in the location you want to be and then work on finding the ‘perfect’ job once you get a year or two into practice.
