NEW! The Leap Into Ownership
Rise Up! YPS Edition

Building a successful private practice takes more than surgical expertise – it requires a clear vision, the right people, and a willingness to think like a business owner.

Andrew McGregor, MD, and Utku Dolen, MD, FACS, are joined by Jerry Chidester, MD, and Bryan Pyfer, MD, MBA, to explore what it takes to build and scale a modern plastic surgery practice. Drawing from their experience growing a multi-surgeon practice and ambulatory surgery center, they discuss choosing the right practice model, building a strong culture, developing partnership tracks, managing finances, and expanding services without losing sight of the patient experience.

The conversation offers young plastic surgeons a candid look at the business decisions that training may not prepare them to make – from understanding their value and generating patients to managing overhead, developing teams and balancing ambitious professional goals with life outside the practice.
