Go here to secure your ticket: Here ______________ What if 2026 rewarded clarity over hustle, narrow niches over broad scaling, and high-conviction bets over scattered diversification? In part two of our 2025 retrospective series, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming shares bold predictions for 2026 in physician entrepreneurship. wraps up the 2025 retrospective with forward-looking predictions for physician entrepreneurs. He breaks down business and practice trends like hyper-specialization, education-clinical hybrids for leverage, and AI workflows as staff multipliers. On the investment side, expect demands for more control, shifts to real assets with operational upside like healthcare real estate or media brands, and fewer but deeper convictions. Drawing from his own businesses and consulting experiences, Dr. Mike shares real examples and challenges physicians to rethink their strategies. Discover why specialization trumps scaling, how education-clinical hybrids will explode, AI as a staff multiplier, shifts in investments toward control and real assets, and a three-step playbook to thrive. This episode delivers actionable insights to own your future. The episode ends with a practical 2026 playbook: one business to double down on, one asset to exit, and one skill to master. If you're a physician building businesses or wealth, seeking autonomy, passive income, or scalable ventures beyond traditional medicine, this is your roadmap to building leverage, wealth, and freedom in the year ahead. Three Actionable Takeaways: Specialize deeply: Narrow your niche to one core expertise (e.g., hormone optimization for perimenopausal women in high-stress careers) for clearer marketing, premium pricing, and less competition. Avoid broad scaling; focus on being the go-to for a specific problem and patient type. Layer education on clinical care: Build hybrid models like group coaching, memberships, or workshops to extend patient value, prevent issues, and scale revenue without adding hours. This creates stickier relationships, higher referrals, and leverage—start small with a monthly Q&A series. Consolidate investments: Demand control, transparency, and optionality in deals; shift to real assets like improvable real estate or physician-led media (e.g., podcasts with sponsorship revenue). Pick fewer high-conviction bets where you add value, exit underperformers, and master one skill like AI integration or content creation for compounding gains.

    ______________

    Dr. Mike Woo-Ming pauses the usual Bootstrap MD format for a candid two-part series. In Part 1, he delivers a no-hype 2025 retrospective: the biggest wins (cash/hybrid models, content as infrastructure, smarter investing), the brutal flops (commodity telehealth, passive income myths, unused AI tools), and the quiet trends most doctors missed entirely.

    2025 stripped away the illusions for physician entrepreneurs. While some chased shiny objects and got burned, others built real leverage, freedom, and wealth. In this raw year-in-review, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming shares exactly what crushed it, what crashed hard, and the under-the-radar shifts that separated the thriving doctors from the overwhelmed ones. No fluff, just the real lessons from coaching hundreds of physicians through the year's chaos.

    Top 3 Actionable Takeaways

    • Own the patient relationship with niche cash/hybrid models: Stop competing on price in commoditized markets. Build a practice where you choose patients, control scheduling, and have pricing power, whether full cash, membership, or strategic hybrid. Micro-niches like executive perimenopause, endurance athletes, beat generic telehealth every time in 2025.

    • Treat content as infrastructure, not marketing: One consistent long-form platform (podcast, YouTube, newsletter) compounds trust and authority faster than rented social algorithms. Patients who consume 10+ episodes arrive pre-sold, not price-shopping. Start owning your distribution now, consistency beats perfection.

    • Go deep on fewer bets instead of wide and scattered: Spreading across 10 mediocre ventures creates overwhelm with no leverage. The 2025 winners picked 1–2 interconnected things (niche practice, community, content and membership) and mastered them. Depth creates moats; breadth creates burnout.

In this inspiring episode of Bootstrap MD, Dr. Mike Woo-Ming welcomes Dr. Scott Ellner, as he shares his journey from witnessing a roadside trauma that sparked his path to medicine, to practicing in New England, facing burnout and suicidal thoughts, and pivoting to executive roles like leading Integris Health Medical Group. Drawing from surfing metaphors, he discusses mental health stigma, the addiction to identity, finding purpose beyond the OR, and practical tips for physicians navigating pivots, startups, and leadership in chaotic healthcare. Perfect for doctors feeling stuck or seeking nonclinical transitions, this conversation offers hope, transparency, and actionable insights on grit, resilience, and reaching out. Three Actionable Takeaways: Embrace Mental Health Openly: Physicians face immense stressors—discuss it like physical health. If you're in crisis (e.g., burnout, cynicism), reflect on purpose: "What intimidates me motivates me." Reach out to a trusted person; a simple "Are you okay?" can save lives, as it did for Scott during a dark night on call. Redefine Purpose Beyond Identity: Don't tie your worth to "surgeon" or "physician"—identity addiction fuels burnout. Pivot by exploring passions (e.g., leadership, startups); spend time journaling or in "executive residencies" to learn business acumen, funding pitches, and health system buy-in for new ventures. Use Surfing as a Leadership Metaphor: Adversity builds grit. Paddle through discomfort like cold water or wetsuits. In healthcare chaos (post-COVID), lead by contributing meaningfully; for pivots, seek VC insights on exit strategies and physician influence (e.g., CMO buy-in) to make ideas stick.
