"Kvetch and eat: aspiring entrepreneur wants to make practicing medicine easier. Will buy steak dinner if you complain about things that drive you nuts about practicing medicine. Side effects may include catharsis and hope for the future."

If you phrase it that way, it sounds like win-win. Free dinner AND I get to complain with no social downsides!

Love this ^^

Yeah the coffee was just an idea to plant the seed that you value their time and feedback. It can be a steak dinner / massage to unwind from all the pain they experience around "X", etc.

Be careful how you position this so it does not come out as "paying for their time" and more like you value their time, this way you can weed out those that just want the incentive
