Many doctors assume that accumulating more qualifications will result in higher earnings—but that’s not always the case. In this episode, we dive into why some highly qualified doctors remain underpaid and how you can change that. Learn how to package your expertise, identify high-value problems, and position yourself as an expert worth investing in.

In this episode, we’re breaking down:

  • The misconception that more degrees automatically lead to higher pay
  • Why positioning and problem-solving matter more than qualifications
  • How to shift from an employee mindset to a high-value expert who can negotiate better pay
