Living in Upstate New York - Argyle, NY

For the past few years have I've had a physician coaching client who wanted to become a digital nomad. Though he did all the hard work I was instrumental in helping him make the right decisions and plan things out. He is now successfully working from another country as a specialist doing vritual medicine and making a very healthy salary.  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Online Course

It's easy to say that the US healthcare system is broken and of no value. I disagree. I think it is motivated by profits which makes it tougher for the patient to navigate but there is defintiely value in it for the patient who knows how to navigate it.  One oof the most important things we can do in this system is to figure out where we belong. Do we want to click in and out and just collect a paycheck? Do we want to have more meanfinful patient doctors relationshios? Do we need to completely exit it?  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Online Course

I love the ability to work remotely but as a digital nomad I'm not always in the same place and getting established somewhere new can be frustrating. In this episode you'll hear the loud streets of Tehran which is just another normal day for me as I go run errands. I'll tell you about navigating internet connection issues and buying SIM cards and just trying to not get swindled in day to day interactions. All part of traveling! ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Sign up for my online course!

It was relatively easy getting set up in Europe and running my virtual medical practice. But here in Tehran, it's a different story. From the Internet to the VPN to even opening a bank account, it's all complicated and frustrating. The frustration is worth it if you can enjoy the process and you have realistic expectations. What usually would take me 1 day in Spain has taken me nearly 2 weeks here in Iran. Then there is the time zone difference and the slow internet speeds.  It's been fun, however. In this episdoe I'll give you my initial impressions and my prief interaction with the Iranian healthcare system.  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads My online course: Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Online Course

A successful medical career doesn't have to be easy and without hurdles. Just like exercising and playing a sport comes with injuries, it can be rewarding to suffer through a few setbacks as long as the overall career has been worthwhile.  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Online Course

As with any place I stay long enough in, I like to answer the question of whether I could see myself moving there and practicing medicine. Argyle is beautiful and has lovely people, but it is also remote, and for some, the weather may not be ideal.  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Course

We all need help at some point in our career - the best way to get that is to know how to ask for it. It's worth putting some effort into it and understand why and how other clinicians can help us in our careers.  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Heart Health Reddit

A medical practice doesn't have to be complicated. Physicians are in high enough demand that if you hang up a shingle you'll get plenty of customers knocking on your door. Sure, to ruin a super optimized medical practice where you optimize for profits takes a lot more work, but that's not what all of us need.  ------ -Dr. Mo Mohammad Ashori LinkedIn Digital Nomad Physicians Website Telemedicine: Digital Nomad Health Website Physician Coaching & Consulting Dr. Mo Goodreads Heart Health Reddit
