What We Do and How We Do It
At MedMan, we believe if physicians aren’t happy and healthy, neither is our nation’s healthcare system. We seek to improve physicians’ lives – and ultimately, the healthcare system – by doing what we’ve done best for the past 40 years: hands-on practice management.

Who… no… Why
The book Who – is a great piece about hiring the right people. Jim Collins, author of the classic management book, Good to Great, tells us success is a function of Who then What.
