After hundreds of conversations with physicians, we’ve identified 3 Key Barriers preventing doctors from launching their own practices:
Capital Constraints
High student debt burdens new doctors, making seed capital difficult to access, limiting practice ownership.
Stability Needs
Physicians often seek a steady income post-residency, clinical support from mentors and staff, and the ability to balance personal life goals, like starting a family.
Business Acumen
Running a practice requires skills that are not part of medical training, making the business side of medicine daunting and time-consuming.
Medina’s platform of solutions are designed to overcome these barriers and empowering physicians on their path to clinical and financial independence.
Startup Capital
We offer comprehensive seed funding to help physicians establish independent practices while retaining majority ownership. At Medina Partners, we recognize that one of the biggest barriers for doctors aspiring to launch their own practices is the lack of startup capital, often compounded by burdensome student debt. By providing full financial support, we enable physicians to focus on what they do best—delivering high-quality patient care—without the immediate pressures of financial instability. This approach not only aligns with our mission to empower clinical autonomy but also ensures that doctors can make independent decisions that are best for their patients. We believe that when physicians are invested in and given the freedom to lead, the entire healthcare system benefits, from enhanced patient outcomes to a more sustainable healthcare ecosystem. Our model is built to cultivate success at every level, fostering growth that is driven by the very individuals who understand healthcare best—our doctors.
Student Loan Relief
At Medina Partners, we understand that student debt is one of the most significant barriers facing physicians today, often dictating career choices and preventing many from pursuing independent practice. That’s why we offer a suite of innovative financial solutions designed to alleviate, and potentially eliminate, medical school debt. Whether it’s refinancing options, debt buyouts, or other relief programs, we tailor our approach to meet each physician’s unique needs. Our goal is to free doctors from the financial constraints of student loans, allowing them to focus fully on building successful, patient-centered practices. By solving the debt challenge, we not only empower doctors but also create an environment where healthcare can flourish, driven by those who understand it best.
Medina’s Mini-MBA
The Medina Mini-MBA is more than just a course—it’s a comprehensive educational experience designed to equip physicians with the essential business skills needed to run a successful independent practice. We recognize that medical school focuses on clinical skills, often leaving doctors unprepared for the complexities of managing a small business. Our program covers the fundamentals of practice management, financial planning, marketing, and operations, all tailored to the healthcare environment. Additionally, the Mini-MBA includes modules that explain how Medina’s business model works, providing physicians with a clear roadmap to sustainable, autonomous practice ownership. Flexible and self-paced, the program empowers doctors to learn on their own schedule while building skills critical for long-term success.
Practice Management Services
Our practice management solution operates as a specialized Management Service Organization (MSO) built specifically for private practice physicians. Integrating advanced AI tools and streamlined processes, Medina’s backend systems handle the administrative side of running a practice, from billing to HR to regulatory compliance. By offloading these responsibilities, physicians can concentrate fully on clinical care, knowing that their business operations are in expert hands. Designed with efficiency and profitability in mind, this solution not only drives financial success but also supports doctors in delivering high-quality patient care. At Medina, we understand the unique needs of private practices, and our MSO solution is crafted to ensure that doctors maintain control while maximizing efficiency
