Scott begins with his background – where he grew up, what got him interested in medicine and orthopaedics. He explains how both of his parents were entrepreneurs and how he realized early on the need for leveraging the expertise of others.

David and Scott then discuss the important factors Scott considered when choosing his first job out of training and Scott’s view on the importance of branding and marketing, especially for younger physicians looking to build their practices. Scott then relates the value he sees in finding great advisors and the importance of changing to new people if needed.
