Internship Life at Feel Your Best Self Naturopathic Medicine
Being a clinician is only one part of running a successful practice. This internship experience is providing a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to build and grow a healthcare business.
📋 Today's Focus: • Inventory management, ordering, and stocking supplements • Learning the operational side of a busy brick-and-mortar practice • Brainstorming future passive online income opportunities • Understanding the business systems that support patient care
📚 Yesterday's Learning: • Gathering clinical data to help create treatment decision-making trees • Understanding how providers think through patient cases • Learning the components of an effective SOAP note • Exploring which portions of charting can be completed while the patient is still in the office to improve efficiency and patient care
💡 One of the biggest lessons so far: Healthcare is a blend of science, systems, business, and service. The work patients see is only a small fraction of what happens behind the scenes each day.
