Most people do not start their own clinics after graduating: most people work for at least 2 years as an associate to gain practical skills. Other people do internships, which are available but not required.
Best of luck.

In some states, it's actually illegal to start your own private practice straight out of school, or so I hear. There may be a 6 month minimum, but yes, even those that want to eventually own their own practice usually work as an associate for a few years before starting out on their own. I do eventually want to own my own practice, but doing it right out of school scares the crap out of me! You do this to get a mentor who can help you learn more surgical skills, diagnosing skills, business skills, and patient skills.
