In this episode, Family Physician Dr. Bill Fisher shares his remarkable journey from a traditional fee-for-service private practice to becoming an employee and, ultimately, to reclaiming his passion for medicine by launching his Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice, Innovative Medical Therapies, in 2019 at the age of 64. Dr. Fisher, who founded Pekin Family Practice in Illinois in 1991, exemplifies that it’s never too late to take control of your career and create a practice that aligns with your values.
Frustrated by the endless interference of insurance companies and longing to reconnect with patient-centered care, Dr. Fisher made the bold leap into DPC, proving that age and years in the system are not barriers—they are assets. Drawing on decades of experience, he built a practice that integrates comprehensive primary care with innovative services like weight loss and hormone optimization, showing that reinvention is possible at any stage.
In this conversation, Dr. Fisher reflects on the challenges he faced, including navigating non-compete clauses and reducing operational costs, and shares how DPC has reignited his love for medicine. He also explores the transformative benefits DPC offers to small businesses and communities, and the freedom it provides physicians to focus on prevention, advocacy, and truly in-depth patient care.
For physicians feeling stuck or unsure about whether they can make a change, Dr. Fisher’s story is a testament to the power of courage, vision, and a commitment to doing what’s right for patients—and yourself. He offers practical advice on pricing models, avoiding

In this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Robert Pope and Dr. Neal Douglas as they discuss the critical issue of malpractice for independent Direct Primary Care (DPC) physicians.
Dr. Pope recounts his journey through internal medicine, administrative roles at major insurance companies, and his contributions to creating CARE as a malpractice insurance solution. He discusses the evolution of the hospitalist movement, the importance of continuity of care, and the impact of effective, high-quality doctor-patient relationships in reducing litigation risks.
Dr. Douglas highlights not only the advantages of the DPC model, such as personalized care and reduced bureaucracy, he also shares his successful experience partnering with CARE for his own DPC malpractice policy, largely driven by the fact that CARE not only understands and believes in the DPC movement and the high quality of care that DPC physicians brings to patients, but that it backs that up with tailored, more affordable and robust malpractice plans for DPC doctors.
