Episode 22
Thursday, 22 January, 2026
In this episode of DO.fm, we sit down with Dr. Forbush, a family medicine osteopathic physician in Maine, to explore his journey into Direct Primary Care (DPC). Dr. Forbush breaks down what DPC is, why he chose this model over traditional insurance-based practice, and how it reshapes the physician–patient relationship while staying true to osteopathic principles. Tune in as he shares the real-world rewards and challenges of running an independent practice and offers practical advice and encouragement for students and residents curious about family medicine and alternative practice models.
