For The Official Guide to Starting Your Own Direct Primary Care Practice:

z

“Dr. Farrago lays it down on behalf of oppressed doctors everywhere with a libertarian slap in the face to the Healthcare Industrial Complex that thinks it owns us. Smart, funny, and dangerously true, it’s a DIY manual for getting back to the “why” you went to medical school: to take care of frickin’ patients. This DIY manifesto for retaking healthcare will empower long-suffering doctors to regain control of their practices and better serve their patients. A must-read if you want to do primary care the way it was meant to be done, without the red tape or bureaucrats.”
