Staying Busy and Successful in Practice with Margaret
May 9, 2022
Margaret felt she was capable of running her own practice. She ran her family’s business before, how hard could it be? Although she didn’t face too many issues, she did have an excessive caseload. When she’s not working in her practice, she is also evaluated for court cases and teaches. She clocks about 70 working hours. Although it's not a sustainable model for others, she advises others to learn from her unique practice.
Margaret, a neuropsychologist in Glendale, dreamed of being a "brain doctor". Dealing with psychological evaluations and trauma patients, she feels she accomplished her goal. Her company consists of four employees, each varying in specialization. Her practice provides aid with health issues, immigration issues, career counselling, and trauma.
Similar to her practice, Margaret is a unique case where she thrives with heavy caseloads. She feels it stemmed from her upbringing working in a pharmacy where she learned how to run a business. When she isn't dealing with her practice, she works in court evaluations and teaches. Margaret acknowledges it's not a suitable model for others but still offers valuable advice. Transparency is vital for her practice to run efficiently. She also urges to work in what you love and feel comfortable doing.
