Starting His Own Dynamic Private Practice

Dr. Shah emphasizes accessible care – including telehealth – and has a reputation for compassionate patient communication and mentorship. He’s known for advocating prevention, clear education, and lifestyle changes that align with long-term health, mirroring the themes my listeners appreciate about role evolution and patient-centered models. 
After completing his fellowship, Rishin started working for a large system, but shifted to private practice eight years ago. During that time he focused on standardization, and identifying opportunities to improve care while cutting costs.

Fixing the Staffing Gap

While growing his cardiology practice, he discovered a big need for qualified medical assistants. Recruiting such help was very difficult and existing sources were unreliable. So he built a solution that vetted, recruited, and trained staff for his own practice and expanded it to serve others.

His company, GoLean Health, specializes in finding good virtual medical assistant talent. Unlike other recruitment agencies, GoLean sources medical VAs worldwide, offering both English-speaking and native Spanish speakers. And using this tool, he has helped other practice owners improve productivity and relieve administrative burdens, while reducing costs and turnover.

Summary

In today’s interview with Dr. Rishin Shah, we learn about the tools he uses to improve productivity and reduce costs, including  AI tools, which have worked out very well. Other practice owners are encouraged to follow his lead and use GoLean.Health and other available resources to build their own dynamic private practice.
