In Episode 157 of the My DPC Story Podcast, host Dr. Maryal Concepcion welcomes Dr. William Steelman, a passionate advocate of the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, who shares his transformative journey from being a hospitalist to pioneering an innovative, patient-centered primary care practice at Steelman Medical Group in The Woodlands, Texas. Dr. Steelman discusses the importance of transparency, low overhead costs, and personalized care in improving patient health without the burden of insurance. They explore the role of word-of-mouth and social media in growing a DPC practice, and the financial strategies for sustaining such a business, including the need for a 3-month emergency fund. Dr. Steelman's commitment to negotiating with pharmacies to reduce costs and his collaborative approach with specialists and ancillary care providers are also highlighted. The podcast concludes with insights into Dr. Steelman's ways of staying connected with his family and community while maintaining a successful practice.
