AAFP Direct Primary Care Summit 2020 is Going Virtual!

AAFP DPC Summit 2020 is Going Virtual

Due to Covid 19, the AAFP DPC Summit is going virtual. There are pros and cons to this arrangement, but there will be much to learn from the sessions and presenters. This year, I have the honor of presenting twice during the Summit. I’ll be giving a talk on building out a larger office for your DPC practice and I’ll be a part of the DPC Summit Student and Resident Track

DPC Summit Student and Resident Track

The DPC Summit will have a student and resident track as a part of the programming, and this year the AAFP is taking the unprecedented step of making the content of this student and resident track FREE for all medical students and medical residents.

This is very exciting as medical students and residents will be able to learn a ton about the DPC model for free during the year's premiere direct primary care conference. You can sign up for the full DPC Summit for $50 if you’re a medical student or medical resident, on the AAFP DPC Summit website, here.

If you want to get updates from Dr. Kenneth Qiu about the Student and Resident Track, and get FREE access to the DPC Summit 2020 Student and Resident Track, please fill out this form.

Interview with Dr. Kenneth Qiu

Dr. Kenneth Qiu and I had a moment to sit down and talk about the upcoming Student and Resident track for the AAFP DPC Summit 2020. It’s going to start at 5:30 pm Central Time on Friday July 17th and it should go until about 7:30 pm. More deets in this vid:

Is it possible to start a dpc practice straight out of residency

YES! I started my DPC practice straight out of residency and it’s the best decision I’ve made in my medical career. I did it with only a little bit of money, but a ton of grit and persistence. Almost four years later, I’ve hired two doctors to help me with the demand and I’ve created a second location for our thriving business and brand. Learn more at Plum Health DPC’s website, here.
