Birmingham Physician Dr. Jade Brice Shares How Auburn’s PEMBA Program Elevated Her Practice

No matter your job title or field, an MBA will help you better understand the intricacies of your day-to-day business environment. Just ask Dr. Jade Brice Roshell, the Chief Medical Officer at Shelby Baptist Medical Center.

Dr. Brice Roshell: 

“Around 2015, I was living and working as a Hospitalist in Omaha, Nebraska. I had been interested in pursuing my MBA for a while, and I knew that I wanted to find a program that specialized in healthcare. 

At the time, I only found two schools that offered a physician-focused executive MBA. I decided to take a leap of faith and apply for Auburn’s PEMBA program.”

Honestly, I was nervous about not having a traditional business background. For most physicians, there is a lot more to being a good doctor than just taking care of patients. You need to have a basic knowledge of many business aspects, things like marketing, finance, accounting and more. I was excited to broaden my horizons and bring even more back to my patients.”

My class was made up entirely of physicians, so we all had that in common. But our experiences differed greatly—some of us have private practices, others were hospitalists and more. But we shared that common thread of being a physician and working to succeed in an ever-changing healthcare landscape. We were able to bounce ideas off of each other based on each of our unique experiences.”
