My DPC Story Is Nominated for Two Doctor Podcast Awards

Your Vote Helps Bring National Visibility to the DPC Movement

As we look ahead to 2026, I am thrilled to share some exciting news with you. My DPC Story has been nominated for two categories in the Doctor Podcast Awards: Best Innovation in Medicine and Best Physician Public Education Podcast. These nominations reflect the heart of what this community has built together. They show the power of a growing movement of physicians reclaiming purpose, autonomy, and the physician patient relationship.

This recognition matters. Every vote helps bring Direct Primary Care into the national spotlight. When DPC gains visibility, more physicians learn what is possible. More patients discover a model of care that puts relationships first. And more policymakers and leaders take this movement seriously.

Why These Nominations Matter

Best Innovation in Medicine honors content that pushes the conversation forward. It highlights work that disrupts the status quo and sparks new ways of thinking about healthcare. The DPC stories shared every week do exactly that. Each episode challenges outdated systems and reminds us what medicine can look like when physicians are allowed to practice with integrity and intention.

Best Physician Public Education Podcast recognizes platforms that teach, empower, and guide. This show has always been about education through real experiences. Your stories, your courage, and your honesty have helped thousands of physicians find clarity in their own journey.

These nominations belong to all of you who have listened, shared episodes, left reviews, attended events, and bravely stepped into entrepreneurship. My DPC Story exists because of this community.

Why Your Vote Matters

Awards are never the goal. Impact is.

But visibility opens doors that help all of us:

• More doctors discover DPC for the first time.

• More listeners understand how healthcare can be different.

• More sponsors and partners see the value in supporting physician created content.

• More momentum builds for the model we believe in.

Your vote is a powerful signal that DPC deserves attention. It tells the healthcare world that physicians are leading meaningful change.
