Hi Folks,
I am a Canadian physician with 8 years clinical experience who runs his own chronic pain clinic. I was wondering if I could trouble you for some information in regards to a potential business career (which I know nothing about).
At the present time, my practice is quite profitable and as such I have no intention of giving it up. However, I would like to see if there are other opportunities out there for me.
I have quite a bit of experience with public speaking, as I have given quite a few lectures over the years to other physicians on chronic pain (in addition to my responsibilities teaching med students, residents, RNs and IMGs). I hold a Teaching / faculty position at my nearby University. I have performed a few hundred independent medical asessments for insurance companies and lawyers for motor vehicle accident related injuries / chronic pain cases, and have testified as an expert medical witness in court.
I attended the University of Toronto for medicine and residency training.
My questions are as follows:
1. Am I suitable candidate for medical consulting?
2. Is it possible to do such work in a part time capacity ?
3. Can anyone expand on the various facets of this business ?
I appreciate any feedback people could provide.
Cheers.
