Not every doctor dreams of climbing the traditional ladder. Some dream of building their own.
Doctors Making a Difference, hosted by Dr. Peter Crane, tells the stories we rarely hear, of physicians who dared to ask, “Is this all there is?” and then changed their lives to answer it.
These are the moments after burnout, after bureaucracy, after sacrifice. When purpose called louder than protocol.
Each week, listeners meet doctors who stepped off the expected path—into roles as entrepreneurs, advocates, creatives, and leaders redefining what it means to heal.
They didn’t just survive medicine. They made it theirs.

The $5 Billion Problem in Healthcare—and How Doctors Can Fix It
Dr. Bart Rademaker, a plastic surgeon and Nobel Peace Prize nominee, shares how many physicians struggle financially despite their vital work—often not achieving financial independence until age 55. He discusses the $5 billion in unpaid medical services due to out-of-network issues and emphasizes the importance of understanding the business side of medicine. Dr. Rademaker advocates for partnering with recovery firms like Callagy Recovery to navigate the No Surprises Act and ensure doctors are fairly compensated, allowing them to sustain their practice and continue making a meaningful impact.
