In this episode of Health Fail, Michelle & Zac sit down with Dr. Katriny Ikbal, CEO and Founder of DirectMed, a direct primary care practice in Austin, Texas.  

Dr. Ikbal shares why she has embraced the direct primary care model and how this model helps to address  some of the failures in today’s insurance-driven healthcare system. She believes that the direct primary care model provides the opportunity for more personal, high-quality care that is more satisfying for both patients and physicians.
