درباره این اپیزود
Dr. Mary Parman spent more than 20 years practicing OB/GYN before building a second path in health tech consulting and startup advisory work.
In this episode, she joins Dr. Alison Curfman to talk about how physicians can use their clinical expertise with startups without necessarily leaving medicine or starting a company themselves.
They discuss how Mary began meeting health tech founders, how she built a pipeline of advisory opportunities, how physicians can think about compensation, and why the first step is often not selling yourself. It is learning where your experience creates value.
This conversation is for physicians who are curious about consulting, advisory work, startup strategy, or building additional income streams while staying connected to clinical practice.
