AAFP Seeks Physicians Who’ve Used SBA Resources for Independent Practice Growth

The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) is seeking to connect with members who have utilized resources or programs from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) to start or expand their independent practices. Insights from physicians who have navigated these opportunities can help inform and support others considering similar paths.

In particular, the AAFP is interested in speaking with members who have participated in the SBA Mentor-Protégé Program. This program is designed to help small businesses grow through guidance, networking, and access to contracting opportunities, and physician experiences can provide valuable perspective on its impact within healthcare practice settings.

If you have used SBA resources and are willing to share your experience, please reach out to Angie Lanigan at [email protected]. Your input could help shape future support and resources for family physicians pursuing independent practice.
