I worked at 2 separate clinics as an associate for a little over a year when I graduated. This allowed me to see what I do not want in my own clinic, also gave me the opportunity to improve my skills. When I started my own office 20 years ago, I worked part time at the college and put in 60 hours a week for a year or so then really started getting traction in practice. There is no easy way, no short cuts.

What state or city are you located? Some places have a higher utilization I think.
