How likely is it that a dermatologist and an anesthesiologist could open a private business together?

I'm going to dermatology and my friend is going for anesthesiology. Owning your own business makes a dermatologist about $400,000 a year as opposed to working in a hospital and getting $180,000. Same goes for any doctor. You make more if you own your own place. How would a dermatologist and an anesthesiologist go into business together? Is it possible? Is this a stupid idea?How likely is it that a dermatologist and an anesthesiologist could open a private business together?
The business of medicine is very complicated, especially for anesthesiologists, as we (usually) rely on other physicians to provide us with patients (surgeons, mostly). Unless you're doing pain management you'll most likely need to be affiliated with a hospital or surgery center.





Although you make more if you own your own business, you also have markedly increased expenses (rent, staff salaries and benefits, supply costs, etc) that an employed physician does not have. The only thing that matters is how much you get to take home in the end.





Unless you are close to finishing your residency, it's kinda silly to even think about such things. And if you ARE in residency, you'd know that your plan isn't really feasible. How likely is it that a dermatologist and an anesthesiologist could open a private business together?
fields of practice are to vastley diffrent - there is nothing in your field that you do that would need an anesthetist for, so it would not provide you with cross refered trade of customers !!
