SUMMARY:Business Planning for New Healthcare Entrepreneurs
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an enlightening webinar on “Business Planning for New Healthcare Entrepreneurs\,” featuring a seasoned physician\, Dr. Hakimi\, who has successfully navigated the entrepreneurial landscape.

She has practiced medicine for over 20 years.\nShe moved to Las Vegas in 2016 and immediately knew she was home.

She is able to provide compassionate\, quality care to all her members and treats them as if they are a part of her own family.
