Breaking Away: A Doctor Explains Her Break from Conventional Multi-Speciality Care

Practicing medicine grows more challenging every day, yet a few bold-thinking physicians – including rheumatologist Dr. Jill Weintraub of New York –are reinventing themselves and their practice models to better meet their professional objectives and improve patient care. Dr. Weintraub, who said she felt “out of alignment with her own integrity” while working in conventional multi-specialty practice, discusses how she successfully transitioned to a solo practice combining conventional evidence-based rheumatology with the principles of integrative medicine. This path opens the way to “so many innovative treatments and approaches,” Dr. Weintraub explains.
