Going Out on Your Own with Sports Medicine Physician and Entrepreneur Rathna Nuti

10/26/21 • 47 min

On today’s episode, I’m talking to Dr. Rathna Nuti, a sports medicine physician.
Rathna is the founder and owner of her own sports medicine practice. She knew from a young age that she wanted to be a doctor but never anticipated that she would be an entrepreneur and start her own practice. Rathna shares the influence from mentors throughout her life that led her first to family medicine and then to completing a fellowship in sports medicine. While still early in her career, Rathna made the decision to break away from the world of corporate medicine and venture out to start her own practice. In addition to her practice, she serves as a team physician for the Dallas Stars and South Stars FC.
We talk about:

Having mentors in your field who are a few steps ahead in the process
Taking career inspiration from family members who know you best
How being independent doesn’t mean going for it alone
