From Scalpel to Startup: Dr. Mark Soliman’s Journey to Building the LinkedIn for Surgeons
Ready to merge the worlds of surgery, tech, and community? Imagine having all the surgical resources, colleagues, and expertise right at your fingertips, 24/7, no matter where you are in the world. Say hello to Dr. Mark Soliman and the SurgeOn app! In this episode, we dive deep with Dr. Mark Soliman, the mastermind behind the SurgeOn, the LinkedIn for the surgical community. Dr. Soliman, Chief of Colorectal Surgery and Program Medical Director for the AdventHealth Digestive Health Institute, started off as a surgeon who had a natural aversion to business. But as he got deeper into his career, he realized the importance of taking control of the finance and strategy to execute his vision. He was hungry for a platform where surgeons could talk, learn, and collaborate without any commercial bias. So he founded SurgeOn, a unique digital ecosystem solely dedicated to the surgical community. His venture has three main verticals for revenue: educational grants that fund webinars, a robust platform for hosting surgical meetings, and subscriptions to industry partners who get read-only access to the platform. What sets SurgeOn apart is its surgeon-centric approach—no selling data, no ads, just pure educational and collaborative space. Dr. Soliman's aim? To make SurgeOn the go-to international hub for all things surgical, offering a safe and secure space for surgeons to collaborate, share, and grow. In this podcast episode, we explore his unlikely journey from being averse to business to becoming a disruptive entrepreneur in the medical field. How does the SurgeOn app monetize? What's the vision for the next five years? And why is a growth mindset crucial for not just surgeons but everyone? Dr. Soliman drops knowledge bombs on all things entrepreneurial and surgical, plus shares exclusive insights into the future of this groundbreaking platform. This is your chance to peek behind the surgical mask and into the world of medical tech innovation. __________________________________________________________ Looking to learn more?

Going International: Buying an Italian Villa

Going International: Buying an Italian Villa
Welcome to another exciting episode of the Doctors Building Wealth podcast! Join Leti and Kenji as they share their journey from Lake Como in Italy, where they discuss the topic of going international and buying an Italian villa. Their goal has always been to create a life where they could own an Italian villa to use as a gathering place for friends and family, and this dream is now becoming a reality. They explore the various reasons why some investors choose to buy rental properties in foreign countries, such as obtaining a golden visa for citizenship or residency, leveraging geographic arbitrage in affordable markets, benefiting from currency arbitrage, and diversifying their real estate portfolios across different countries. Leti shares her experience of overcoming initial challenges in securing a loan for the Italian property and explains a unique syndication structure they devised to bring their dream closer to reality. This innovative structure allows passive investors to invest in the property and receive a return or stay in the villa for a certain period each year, while Leti and Kenji still have ample time to rent out the property as a short-term rental and make it a profitable venture. They also highlight the potential tax benefits, such as accelerated depreciation, for foreign properties. The episode concludes with an inspiring message for real estate investors to explore various possibilities in international property investments and make their dreams of owning properties in different countries a reality. Tune in to discover how you can embrace international real estate investments and create a life of travel and multiple rental properties around the world. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from Leti and Kenji's experience and be inspired to take your real estate investment journey to the next level! __________________________________________________________ Looking to learn more?
