I was hoping to get some input here about whether an all geriatrics DPC practice would be viable, especially in states like PA or FL - these states have a larger geriatric population both in absolute numbers and growth rate in that demographic relative to the rest of the US. One of the hesitations I have with this is that you lose the cheap pediatric care as a loss-leader.
Also, if I were to do an all geriatrics DPC practice, I would ideally want to do a geriatrics fellowship. Would this be necessary, or would an area of concentration in geriatrics with lots of geriatric electives be enough to attract this demographic.
