You’ve done everything right.

You’ve taken courses, read books, even hired consultants — but no matter how hard you work, you’re still stuck. The dream of a thriving private practice with ease, flow, and abundance feels just out of reach.

Instead, you’re overwhelmed, burnt out, and wondering why it’s so hard to get to the next level.

It doesn’t have to be that way.

You can build a practice that aligns with your values — one that respects your time, reflects your training, and allows you to care for patients in a way that feels right. 

With step-by-step coaching, practical tools, and steady support, you’ll have the clarity and confidence to launch your direct care practice, leave insurance behind, and lead with purpose.

Welcome to DIRECT CARE COACHING FOR PHYSICIANS 

I’m Dr. Tea Nguyen.

I’ve been where you are.

As an owner of a direct specialty care practice, I know the challenges of building a business that doesn’t just survive but thrives. I also know that success isn’t just about working harder or learning more. It’s about changing the way you think and operate so you can finally break free from the cycle of struggle.

That's exactly why I created the Direct Care Society to help doctors like you get the clarity and confidence to build the business of your dreams. One that is free of insurance where you have the autonomy to run your business your way.

Let me show you how an insurance-based practice is no longer a viable long-term option for small business owners.

What no one tells you about running a private practice…

You're doing everything you can to make it work. But behind the scenes? You're drowning in responsibilities no one prepared you for.

You’re not failing. You’re navigating a system that was never designed to help you succeed on your terms.

X Administrative Burden

From endless paperwork to shifting regulations and insurance red tape, the day-to-day tasks keep piling up with no end in sight.

X Financial Stress

Unpredictable cash flow, rising overhead, and low reimbursements make it hard to stay profitable — or even sustainable.

X Time and Energy Drain

You’re doing it all — doctor, manager, decision-maker — and even when the day ends, your brain doesn’t. Burnout creeps in fast.

X Leadership and Team Struggles

Finding, training, and keeping the right people is a job in itself. Managing a team often adds more stress than support.

X Isolation and Lack of Support

You're expected to hold everything together, but you’re navigating this alone. And the only advice you get is to just work harder.

Imagine what comes next

The Success You’ll Achieve

Imagine waking up excited to work in a practice that supports your mental wellness, minimizes stress, and allows you to perform at your best. Picture having a business that’s not just profitable but truly aligned with the life you’ve always wanted. This isn’t just about more money—it’s about reclaiming your purpose and joy.

Why This Matters

Many doctors think the answer is another certification, another course, or another set of tactics. But the truth is growth starts with the right mindset and the right support. When you treat the root issues in your business, you create space for real and lasting change.
