CONCIERGE MEDICINE CAREER READINESS ASSESSMENT · CMT · SINCE 2007
Most physicians exploring this model have the same question. Not "what is it" — but "is it right for me, for my patients, for my life right now?" This assessment gives you some key considerations —
Is concierge medicine
actually right FOR you?
Are you ready for this change?
Twenty questions across mindset, business readiness, and marketing and leadership. There are no perfect scores here, only perspective on your next right step. For physicians, NPs, PAs, RNs, and care team members exploring membership-based care.
Most physicians land here for one of these reasons:
You're exhausted by the current model but not sure if this is the answer or just an escape.
You've read about it but can't find an honest, vendor-neutral take on whether it fits your situation.
You're worried about the transition — financially, relationally, professionally.
You want someone to tell you clearly: yes, or no for now, but not forever, or no, it’s just not for you.
CMT has covered this field independently since 2007. We've talked to thousands of physicians who've made this decision — in both directions.
“This assessment was built from nearly two decades of physician interviews, national conference conversations, and independent research. It doesn't tell you what to do. It gives you the framework to decide for yourself — clearly, honestly, without a vendor agenda.”
— Michael Tetreault, Editor-in-Chief · Concierge Medicine Today · Est. 2007 · Independent since day one
