On The Table Read, “The Best Book Reader Magazine in the UK“, author of Persist, Dr Clarence Lee Jnr, launches urgent care facility, Exhort Health, and shares his views on how medicine should be practiced.

Amid a complex healthcare industry plagued by red tape, high (often nontransparent) costs, and interactions that leave patients feeling defeated and exhausted, Clarence Lee Jr., MD, believes he has a potent solution.

“Medicine is typically an employment model, and I intend to take the profession of medicine back for the physician and allow us to fix all of the problems private equity and business influence has caused in the practice of medicine,” Dr. Lee said.

Exhort Health

He launched his flagship urgent care facility, Exhort Health, in San Marcos, California, in February, where he aims to provide cost-effective, patient-focused care that leaves patients feeling empowered.

“One of the core values of this organization is encouragement,” Dr. Lee added. “Instead of coming into the doctor’s office and leaving drained, we want you to leave encouraged. … it’s, ‘uplift the patient as soon as they come in the door.’”

If transforming the way healthcare is practiced sounds like swimming upstream, Dr. Lee is no stranger to persisting in the face of adversity. His dream of becoming a doctor was nearly upended by a steady stream of rejection letters from medical schools — until just the right opportunity presented itself. And today, he’s leading the charge to return physician ownership to healthcare and “fix every problem medicine has.”
