Ep. 61 - Dr. Matthew Mundwiler on Saving Private Practice and Fighting Healthcare Consolidation
Press play on a real conversation about staying independent in a system built for giants. In this episode of Working Healthcare, Meredith Hirsh and Mike Chavez sit down with Dr. Matthew Mundwiler, a private practice rheumatologist from Columbus, Ohio, to talk about what it really takes to survive—and thrive—outside of corporate healthcare. With operational costs up, physician autonomy shrinking and insurance denials on the rise, Matt shares why he’s doubling down on independence and patient-centered care. From the financial realities of private practice to the emotional toll and unexpected rewards, this is an unfiltered, yet optimistic, look at the frontline of medicine today. Whether you're a physician, policymaker or just curious about how your care is delivered, this conversation pulls back the curtain.
