1. Shu, tell us a little bit about your practice. I am an ENT by training and did a fellowship in sinus surgery. I came to Ohio State in 2008 to be the Director of Sinus Surgery and stayed on faculty until 2015. I joined a large group for several years after that, and then took the plunge and went solo around Covid.

2. Why are you so passionate about being independent? Being independent allows me to best practice medicine the way I think it should be, as a privileged calling that is not motivated by other factors outside of my patients’ best interests. I have more freedom over my schedule and my administrators are completely responsive to my needs. Being independent has brought tremendous joy back to practicing medicine that was getting lost by the conflicting needs of a large practice. 

3. What’s your biggest hope / dream for the future of the Columbus physician community? That it remains vibrant and interconnected and survives the onslaught from insurance companies and increased regulation that are forcing more independent practitioners to retire or join large groups.
