Dr. Jen Faber, DC talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast.

Low overhead, no insurance, cash pay, more time with
patients and higher fees are reasons to switch to house call chiropractic. Dr.
Jen Faber had a successful HC practice and now consults with others to gain the
same. Plus we chat travel and novelty.

Why did she quit the traditional high volume practice,
transition into house call chiropractic, switch into consulting and sell all
she owns so she can travel for 18 months abroad?

Have you ever had a patient ask, can you come to my house to
deliver treatment? She had a fully booked schedule 4 days a week, working
mostly mornings, six figure income as a house call doctor. People said she was
crazy and it can’t work, but she carved two niches and made it work, she even
had a waiting list.

After many friends and other colleagues started asking her
“how did you do it” type of questions, she moved to another city and began
consulting full time. Help more people by helping more doctors have the
practice of their dreams.

How do you want to spend your time as a doctor and
personally? How should we practice, what type of practice are we allowed to
have and finding your authentic calling?

Burned out, long hours, high stress, high pressure, low pay,
high overhead and minimal time with patients are all reasons to consider the
house call chiropractic practice.

Our default when working for ourselves or at least what
gurus say is to Grind and Hustle and work 80 hours a week. She found that at
first she did have to put a lot of hours but was honest and said working from
home did take some getting used to, as to not waste time doing other things.

She has a good explanation why she created modules over an 8
week time span.

Dr. Jen mentions several times you have to look at what you
want from your practice, not what’s normal, conventional, what your peers are
doing etc but what is it that gets you energized and build your house call
practice around that.

The more you compromise, the quicker you will burn out.

Think about what you
want, the type of patients, the hours, the fees, the schedule and your voice.

Why does Dr. Faber say the VIBE of the patient is what you
want to attract with marketing?

Sometimes we have to start with What Do We Hate or Don’t
Want in a Practice.

CHALLENGE:
What  to do with a business card aka
don’t give one out for 2 weeks, what?

Help the patient connect with what their pain is (not just
back pain but can’t swim). If you are going to give a health talk, discuss a
topic THEY will CARE ABOUT, don’t make it about chiropractic.

 Low overhead, no
insurance, cash pay, more time with patients and higher fees … is it really all
rainbows?

If you aren’t happy with the situation you are in, what do
you have to lose to change? Particularly if you have been unsatisfied for 10-15
years and you still have another 15 before you can retire, why not be enjoy
your work again?

Dr. Jen Faber discusses her plan to immerse herself in the
world for 18 months starting her trip in Australia, New Zealand, South-East Asia
and finally Europe countries (October 2019).
