You didn’t start your private practice to be on call 24/7.
But when the clinic closes, the patient questions don’t stop—and if you don’t have a plan, your time and energy will suffer.
In this episode of Physicians Hanging a Shingle, we’re talking about how to handle after-hours patient communication in a way that protects your time, your sanity, and your standards of care.
We’ll explore several options—whether you're running an insurance-based, direct care, or concierge model—and how to set clear boundaries from the start.
You’ll learn:
- Why your practice model impacts your after-hours approach
What to consider if you’re taking personal calls or texts - A smart (and underused) strategy: group call rotations with like-minded docs
- How to train patients on what’s urgent vs. what can wait
- When an answering service makes sense—and how to make it work for you
Private practice gives you the power to build your systems your way.
Let’s make sure they work for you—not against you.
