Important article that sheds some light on the problems with nurse practitioner training. Did you know that nurse practitioners no longer have to have any prior experience as a nurse? I didn't until recently.

Fischer Clinic is intentionally designed to be physician-only care and we are working hard to encourage and support the next generation of physicians. We regularly have medical residents, medical students and aspiring medical students in our office to give them first hand experience and training in the work of being a doctor.

At Fischer Clinic not only are you ONLY seen by doctors, you are always scheduled with your own doctor unless they are sick or out of the office. We believe that the highest quality care comes from consistently seeing the same doctor who can get to know you well and who has spent thousands of hours training to care for you - on top of crushing it in undergrad and passing lots of exams, surviving at least 3 years of residency and passing medical boards.

Later this week our beloved NC State student intern, Ony, will have her white coat ceremony as she begins medical school. And next week, we will be joined by Varun a recent UNC grad who will spend the year with us before starting medical school.

I want to be a part of training future physicians because excellence in medical training matters.

They don’t merely support doctors—NPs increasingly treat patients independently, including in specialty practices and emergency rooms. When they aren’t well trained, the results can be tragic.

See the flashback from 2016 at the Person Street Pharmacy

Today is a perfect day to enjoy the Raleigh Greenway. We are proud to hang artwork in the clinic from local artists and our first picture is from Autumn Cobeland who has a wonderful Greenway series. If you know Dr. Benjamin Fischer at all, you know that he spends a lot of time on the greenway and if you are his patient he hopes that you do too! Enjoy the beautiful day and get outside or go see her great work at Artspace.

Great tips from our friend and fellow direct primary care doctor, Dr Christina Gonzalez

Haven’t shared a post like this in a while—probably in part because we haven’t had a “Pinterest worthy” home in quite a while!—but here ya go!

Kids love to cook! And you don’t need anything fancy. I love our kid safe knives. Yesterday I made the main dish while Mr. Vegetables here was thrilled to make the entire salad by himself next to me. 🥰🥬🥗 🍅🥰

1. Teaches them to cook
2. Teaches them how to enjoy work
3. REWARDS THEIR NATURAL DESIRE TO WANT TO HELP
4. They’re more likely to eat things they helped make
5. They learn more about healthy eating
6. TONS of learning opportunities: “can you cut them into squares?” “Can you cut these in half?” “Can you put 5 cucumber slices in there?” Etc
7. Gives parents a moment to do the trickier cooking tasks
8. Helps them see the full picture of what goes into a meal… including clean up and time it takes

I could keep going!

Pro tip - - if you wonder why you or maybe your parents are being encouraged to do remote patient monitoring by the doctor (or more likely "provider"). We get emails like this one everyday showing us how our clinic can make more money by spending less time with patients.

Ask your doctor if Remote Patient Monitoring is right for you? Or them.

"Ben, $5,000 in guaranteed monthly profit for every 125 patients we help Fischer Clinic manage in the home through Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and/or Chronic Care Management (CCM). That's roughly an additional profit of $60,000 per year or $40 per patient per month.

This unique guarantee is in line with exciting CMS changes to 2024 Telehealth policies, including new CPT codes. We've created a guide for you summarizing how the latest changes broaden support for your Telehealth services, covering payment for audio-only visits, postponing in-person requirements, and more.

To download the guide, go to this link on our website: https://www.b. (link removed)
