In this special episode, Scott, Mark, and Ray welcome Dr. Marc Rose, a practicing urologist in Vero Beach, Florida, to share his journey of transitioning to a hybrid urology practice that combines traditional insurance with concierge medicine. Dr. Rose walks us through the burnout that led him to make a change, how he structured his new model, and the lessons he’s learned since making the leap. He explains how the practice operates day-to-day, how patients respond to concierge options, and the role his nurse practitioner and support team play. Whether you’re a urologist exploring alternative practice models or just curious about the benefits and challenges of concierge care, this episode offers valuable firsthand insight.
