Why U.S. Medical Education Needs a Rethink with Dr. Laurel Fick
After 15 years in academic medicine, Dr. Laurel Fick walked away, burned out and disillusioned with corporate healthcare. Today, she runs Niche Medical, a micro practice in Indianapolis where she provides prevention-focused, highly personalized care, on her own terms.
In this episode of The Interesting MD Podcast, host Dr. Rob Beck talks with Dr. Fick about her journey out of the system, what it’s really like to run a solo practice, and how she fell back in love with medicine. She shares insights on burnout, lifestyle medicine, and creating space for innovation, along with advice for doctors considering their own exit from the traditional model.
This is a must-listen for any physician searching for balance, freedom, and a reminder that practicing medicine differently is possible.
