Today I want to talk about something that is deeply important to me, and I suspect deeply important to many of you listening today — the future of independent private practice, and why community matters now more than ever.

This past weekend, we gathered in Portland, Oregon for the Caduceus Masquerade Ball, a celebration of independent medicine and the people who dedicate their lives to caring for our communities. And honestly, it was extraordinary.

The room was filled with physicians, practice administrators, healthcare leaders, consultants, and supporters of private practice. There was elegance and laughter and music and conversation. People who had emailed each other for years finally met face to face. Specialists met referring physicians they had never actually met in person despite sharing patients for years. Colleagues reconnected. New relationships formed.

And perhaps most importantly, there was this unmistakable feeling in the room — hope.

Not denial about the challenges in healthcare. Not pretending everything is easy. But hope grounded in the realization that we are still stronger together than we are apart.

What made the evening even more meaningful was that the Caduceus Ball was also a fundraiser supporting three local nonprofit organizations that serve physicians, healthcare teams, and medical practices in our community. So everyone attending wasn’t just celebrating — they were also contributing to causes that strengthen healthcare locally. There is something profoundly uplifting about gathering together not only for ourselves, but also in service of others. That sense of generosity and shared purpose changes the energy in a room.

And it reminded me of something important:
Private practice is not simply a business model.
It is a community model.
