Product Description

E-Myth \ 'e-,'mith\ n 1: the entrepreneurial myth: the myth that most people who start small businesses are entrepreneurs 2: the fatal assumption that an individual who understands the technical work of a business can successfully run a business that does that technical work

With The E-Myth Physician, bestselling author Michael Gerber focuses on the business of being a physician, rather than the work of it. He reveals a radical mind-set that will free physicians from the tyranny of the unprofitable, unproductive, perpetual routine -- juggling patients, hiring, firing, doing everything that needs to get done.

The E-Myth Physician will teach you how to:

  • Implement the ingenious turn-key system, a means of creating a business model that produces consistent, predictable results
  • Recognize, understand, and manage the four factors of money -- income, profit, flow, and equity -- and understand the impact of each on your practice
  • Transform your practice and your people while enabling your business to grow exponentially without your having to be there all the time.

Drawing on more than thirty years of experience working with tens of thousands of small business owners, Gerber provides revolutionary, practical, and enlightening insights on how to produce the best real-world results not only in the physician's practice, but, even more important, in a physician's life.

1 out of 5 stars Disappointing   January 4, 2010
Billy-Bob Garcia (Clarksville, TN)
I liked the E-myth Revisited. I think every business owner should read it. After you read it, don't assume that his other stuff is good, because it isn't. After reading this book, and skimming some of his other ones, I will never buy any of his other products, and certainly will not be travelling for one of his $5,000.00 seminars about daydreaming.

I absolutely loved this book! This is exactly what I have been telling my doctors when I consult with them and it is so great to be validated by having it in print! Very well written. Short enough to be easily digested in one sitting if need be. Gets your attention on page one and holds it thru the end! Great book.


5 out of 5 stars Great Book   August 11, 2009

Good general knowledge about running a business. Lets see how well I can apply the knowledge learned. The concepts seem basic and common knowledge but a great review and set up for anyone thinking of opening a medical practice.

This book will do very little in giving you an idea of how to grow a practice, or not have it fail. It talks a lot about cloning yourself and selling your practice eventually, which is something I'm not interested in - at least not now - it's been 3 years since I graduated. There is nothing substantial about doctor-patient communication or patient acquisition, which I believe has a lot to do with why practices fail. The reason I would pay $0.02 and rate it a 1 star is because it has some decent philosophical concepts, but you can get those just about anywhere with all "self-help" manifestation-type books that are out now. The author probably had a good 1st book (haven't read it) and then just figured he could use the same template to clone a dozen others on a different topic. Invest your money elsewhere - really disappointing, and was able to finish it about 2 hours. And I'm no speed-reader.


5 out of 5 stars A must-read for Doctors, Dentists, Chiropractors, Lawyers!   August 24, 2008
Victoria Flint (Fort Collins, CO USA)
Already a fan of Michael Gerber's E-Myth books, this book truly is a must-read for anyone who has a professional practice. In Colorado, dental hygienists can practice independently. I recently started my own practice (http://www.DentalHygieneHaven.com), which is truly a practice (job). Thanks to Michael Gerber and this book, my practice is on its way to becoming a business. This book is bringing much sanity and predictability to my life!
