Staying Busy and Successful in Practice with Margaret

Margaret, a neuropsychologist in Glendale, dreamed of being a "brain doctor". Dealing with psychological evaluations and trauma patients, she feels she accomplished her goal. Her company consists of four employees, each varying in specialization. Her practice provides aid with health issues, immigration issues, career counselling, and trauma.

Similar to her practice, Margaret is a unique case where she thrives with heavy caseloads. She feels it stemmed from her upbringing working in a pharmacy where she learned how to run a business. When she isn't dealing with her practice, she works in court evaluations and teaches. Margaret acknowledges it's not a suitable model for others but still offers valuable advice. Transparency is vital for her practice to run efficiently. She also urges to work in what you love and feel comfortable doing.
