In this episode, you’ll hear from Dr. Lauren Hedde, founder of Direct Doctors, an innovative direct primary care (DPC) practice based in East Greenwich, RI. Dr. Hedde's clinic model focuses on physician burnout, healthcare, and value-based care, offering a unique approach to patient-doctor relationships and healthcare delivery. She shares insights on her practice, emphasizing a slow and steady approach built on low overhead and patient involvement. The discussion delves into technology utilization, boundary setting, family integration, and the transition of her husband, also a physician, into the practice. Dr. Hedde's emphasis on a simplified style of DPC, known as "DPC LITE,” along with her website burdenfreemd.com, serves as a valuable resource for addressing physician burnout and promoting financial independence for physicians. With a focus on creating sustainable payment models, efficient operations, and leveraging technology, Dr. Hedde's insights offer valuable takeaways for physicians seeking camaraderie and support, especially in the realm of direct primary care.
