Transitioning from Hospital-based to Office-Based Practice.

ABSTRACT

The decision to change your career path from a hospital-based practice, whether it's from being a hospital employee or a member of a private practice, can be an emotionally draining choice that is complex and overwhelming to say the least. There are many factors to consider before making this switch, but most importantly, one must realize it may be the hardest but most rewarding work in your career. While the physical, emotional and financial stresses placed on you while developing a practice can be rather demanding, on the flip side, if done correctly and the practice thrives, it can be a change that will bring you great pride and satisfaction, as well as personal reward and freedom.
