The founder of MeMD, Dr Shufeldt is hoping to inspire other medical professionals to reach their entrepreneurial potential through his new book.
“Taking this leap will change your life,” said Dr Shufeldt. “Whether you fail or succeed, you will gain insight, knowledge, and build valuable traits like perseverance, humility, and creativity.”
Dr Shufeldt warns in the early pages of Entrepreneur RX that taking this step is not a decision to be made lightly. Pulling no punches, he urges any aspiring physician entrepreneurs to be sure of the exact demands that starting a business puts on home life, social life, and free time. Yet, once that commitment is made, Shufeldt’s experience-based insights provide a valuable roadmap for any physician hoping to walk their entrepreneurial path.
