But, what are your thoughts on shared space situations? Ok so I should have re-read this article to get your take on associateships and I agree.

I have been trying to job shadow as many docs as I can, and then taking the things that I like and keeping them in store for the future. My biggest fear though is that I don't have a business background, and so when I get into practice I'm not certain how to integrate everything that I have learned. Would you recommend doing an associateship, or sharing space for a time for that reason? Or should I jump in feet first and trust my instincts? Thanks again for your time and response!

It's awesome that you are thinking about this now and not 3 months before graduation like most students (Like me :( ). My best advise is don't try to reinvent the wheel. Find a success and copy it! Heck that's what we did. Saying that, you must be careful who you copy. Make sure they are moral, legal and ethical. And, this is a big one, they must have a track record of success across the board, not just with certain people or situations. Hey Jared,

I have just stumbled upon it and find it useful. Currently I am a sixth quarter student. What are your thoughts on shared space opportunities instead of becoming an associate? For me this seems like it would be the ideal situation. Thank you for all of the great info you have put online! Dr. Brubaker

There are low cost ways to get open, sub-letting space in another office is one way to get your feet wet, and grow a practice, then transition into your own space when you can. One thing to remember is that starting any new practice is going to take planning, a proven system and a good market to do it in. Especially if you have a limited budget, you can't afford not to succeed right out of the gate.
