Dr. King reflects on the evolution of his clinical confidence, from the certainty he felt after graduation, through the challenges of inconsistent outcomes, to the confidence he developed around age 40 through experience, mentorship, continuing education, and improved case management skills.

Also in this episode, Dr. Christie introduces the patient-adherence “Communication Triangle” and shares advice on evaluating associate opportunities, emphasizing the importance of aligning with a clinic’s philosophy and clinical approach to avoid long-term mismatches.
