Presenting today’s episode titled, “Straight to Private Practice — with Saba Motakef, MD.”

First, imagine launching your own private plastic surgery practice. Specifically, you have no prior experience, skip a fellowship, and do it just as the world shuts down due to COVID-19. Amazingly, that’s exactly what Dr. Motakef did.

Indeed, starting from scratch, Dr. Motakef had the courage to leave a hospital setting. In turn, he took the leap into private practice. Without a doubt, there was no time for traditional paths. Instead, he relied on resourcefulness. Then, he turned to his mother-in-law to help run his new office. At the same time, he quickly adapted to the challenges of the pandemic.

Miraculously in just a few years, his practice has flourished. Specifically, he built a strong team and honed his vision. Moreover, he created a culture of excellence by learning to hire—and fire—quickly to maintain his standards.

Now, he’s on the brink of another milestone. As a result, he plans to expand into a larger office space to offer in-house procedures.

Ultimately, Dr. Motakef’s story is a testament to resilience, adaptability, and the power of making bold moves. In short, if you’re looking to grow your practice or overcome your own challenges, his journey offers inspiring lessons.

From Zero Experience to Thriving Practice — with Saba Motakef, MD

"The fastest way to success is to model other successful surgeons who have what you want, but you can only see their results, not the path they took to get there.

So, you continue to jump from one thing to another, hoping to find something that will work for you too, but it rarely does. So, try this shortcut instead. It’s guaranteed to move you forward. I compiled my intellectual property to grow cosmetic revenues, everything I’ve gleaned over the years into one playbook of the most successful practices and what they do to win.
