I was spoiled as the youngest child.
Sharing didn’t come naturally.

When I graduated medical school,
I was deep in debt.
When I got out of debt,
I was catching up.
When I became partner,
the house needed work.

There was always an excuse.

Starting a new practice has reset a lot.
Back in debt, excuses come easy again.
But I’m trying to be more intentional with what we have.
And stay grounded even when things feel tight.
Hopefully my kids can see that you don’t need abundance to be kind.

Thank you Jenna Malsbary and Austin Young Lawyers (AYLA) for creating a space to give.
Even in a small way, it meant a lot to be part of it.

One night while on call at Mass General, I was asked to help with a late ortho case.

When I walked into the OR, I saw one of the department chairs managing the case alone.

I asked why he was there overnight for a routine case.

He told me, ā€œthere’s always more to learn.ā€
…

Cadaver labs are usually for younger docs learning new techniques.

I recently attended one for a spinal procedure I’ve done countless times.

It gave me a chance to reflect with a few emerging fellows on the work we do.

A reminder to be kind to yourself as you navigate the corporate world.

We’re all learning as we go.
…

Medicine keeps changing.

Our patients keep changing.

And we owe it to them to keep growing.

Because while experience grounds us,

There’s always more to learn.

What started as a simple step is finding its path.

Looking for another to help us keep up!
Know anyone interested?

Christmas šŸŽ„ is my favorite time of year. Many of my best memories, both from my childhood and now with my own kiddos, are tied to the holidays. Unfortunately, many children involved with Child Protective Services don’t get to experience those same joys.

Please consider supporting Partnerships for Children through donations, gifts, or volunteering with their Holiday Wishes program and other causes.

Thank you Austin Young Lawyers (AYLA) for leading such a meaningful effort.

The world is small šŸŒŽ
Catching up with old friends always reminds me of how far we’ve come.

Grateful for these brothers
and the storms we’ve weathered together.

Inspired by the unique paths each of us is forging.
Onward, for all of us.

Had a wonderful time supporting Ascension Seton’s Adaptive and Inclusive Trunk or Treat this year. Amazing to see so many strong kiddos with smiles on their faces.

Did you know today is National Boss’ Day?
I sure didn’t.
But I do now!

Sometimes the purpose isn’t in the task,
but in the hands that share it.

Thank you to my wonderful staff for the kind reminder.

Grow or die.

Last six months,
I’ve spent more time shaking hands
than injecting spines.

While medicine is still the summit,
networking has become the climb.
And with it comes a quiet weight:
If you’re not moving forward,
you’re falling behind.

Private practice is relentless.
Meetings overshadowing hobbies, dinners, bedtime stories.
Events stretching late into the evening.
But cut yourself some slack.
The work will still be there tomorrow.
Find small ways to catch your breath.
Even if it’s late-night junk food and 90’s sitcoms.

Good job today, David.
See you tomorrow.

How does small business become big business?
I used to think it was always about selling.

Today I double-booked two networking events.
And of course on opposite sides of town.
(Thank you, Austin traffic!)

First stop:
Verena Senior Living Community in Leander.
These residents living their best lives.
Daily happy hour at 4p.
Was asked at least 5x how to cure the ā€˜pain’ of an ex-wife.
We laughed, swapped stories about quirky collections and unexpected adventures.
No lectures.
Barely talked about the practice.

Next stop:
Travis County Medical Society’s New Members Mixer in South Austin.
Mingled with college students and future doctors.
Had a meaningful talk about physician wellness.
And the power of supporting one another.
Talked more about life than leads.
No agendas.
Pitching to medical students felt out of place.

May not get a single referral from either event.
And that’s okay.

Sometimes the win isn’t business.
Sometimes the win is community.

[Thanks to Robyn Booth and Chantel Pearson for always building community]

Starting out with very few patients is scary.
On slow days, I answer the phones just to feel like I’m providing care.
I joke with my wife that the referrals have dried up.
Time to pack it up, sell the house!

But there’s an upside: I get more time with patients.

And something unexpected happens.

Patients apologize for talking too much.
They cut themselves off mid-story.
They assume I’m in a rush.

Meanwhile, I just spent the past two hours troubleshooting a printer jam that didn’t exist.
Trust me, talking with patients can be therapeutic for me too.

Somewhere along the way,
medicine became stiff and transactional.
Sometimes, people need rapport more than refills.

One day (maybe), I won’t have as much time.
But for now, I’m reminded that presence can be its own kind of medicine.

ā€œThank you for calling Skyline Pain.
This is Dr. Kim.
How can I help you?ā€
