"Thanks so much for your help in getting us

under PMM's guidance. They disentangled our office under most difficult

more efficient and happy practice. I highly recommend PMM to anyone
requiring consultation to their medical practice."

"PMM was instrumental in helping me negotiate
my first contract. Keith took his time and patiently explained what
was a completely new language to me. We went through the contract
several times, but I never was made to feel ignorant for having
to ask repeated questions. I really felt that they were extremely
helpful in navigating an area in which I had very little understanding."
Kayvan Keyhani M.D.
I set up a concierge internal medicine practice
and hired Keith Borglum as a practice consultant. By far, this has
turned out to be the best investment I have made in my practice.
Mr. Borglum has an impressive range and depth of knowledge that
makes him the ‘go-to-guy’ for everything. I have used
his two books extensively in setting up office. In short, Mr. Borglum
is a friendly, accessible, knowledgeable and indispensable part
of my start-up practice.

of 2-3 months, her cost would be paid for by the increased productivity
and increased income. Initially, I was very dubious at these miraculous
