In this special solo episode of MyMD Unscripted, I finally get to share my story. After nearly a decade in the ER, which left me burned out and ready to quit medicine, I nearly walked away to build treehouses. But faith and family led me to direct primary care—and a new way of practicing that put patients first. This is the story behind MyMD Select, and why I’ll never go back.
Dr. Clint Carter is the founder of MyMD Select and the host of MyMD Unscripted. After nearly a decade of burnout in the ER, he chose a different path—one that put patients, not insurance, at the center of care. Alongside his wife Stephanie, Clint has built a thriving direct primary care practice in Tyler, Texas, offering functional medicine, hormone optimization, and wellness services rooted in accessibility and faith. His mission is to create a better way forward for both patients and providers—one built on time, trust, and purpose.
