In this episode of the Underdog Physician Podcast, we interview Dr. Takashi Nakamura, an emergency medicine physician who transitioned into telemedicine to better balance work and family life. Dr. Nakamura shares his journey from handling urgent care consultations to fully embracing telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic, which culminated in co-founding the IR Academy. The academy guides physicians through the transition from traditional to telehealth practices, focusing on legal compliance, job satisfaction, and maximizing income. Dr. Nakamura emphasizes the importance of embracing technology like AI to stay current and discusses the personal fulfillment he derives from helping physicians achieve a more flexible and rewarding work-life balance.
