Guest guest Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Claim your home as your office location or call them and ask what you should do. Make sure you explain to them that you do not fit into their zip code model of permanent office locales. Hope this helps. Later Mike W. Bowser, L Ac > " J.

Your peers are other TCM doctors, you find them in the state org. You could join AOMNC, but there may not be any other Alaska folks in it. It is a little hard to connect with AOMNC folks right now because the web site is having problems. <http://www.aomnc.com/> You could also ask your school to give you 3 peer references. They should oblige you in that, how much did they make off of you in tuition? Rent a small office and set up a little treatment room. You can still do outcalls, just keep your suitcase in your office when you aren't on a call. My office is 103 square feet, so it can be done. I do *no* outcalls, too old for that! Some people set up offices in their homes, is this allowed by your authorities? Regards, Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
