If you’ve been in practice long enough, you’ve heard some version of this: “I already tried physical therapy… It didn’t work.” Sometimes you hear it during a consultation. Sometimes it even comes up on the phone. And it can be especially challenging when that person...
Getting a patient to say yes to treatment isn’t the end of the sale. Every time they decide whether to book another visit, follow your recommended frequency, finish their plan of care, or continue beyond a package, they’re making another decision about the...
One of my Mastermind members recently attended a local racket-sports tournament with a booth alongside several competing healthcare businesses. The other providers waited behind their tables, hoping people would stop by. Meanwhile, she had a steady crowd at her booth...
We’ve all experienced it… You’re at a party, attending a networking event, or watching your kid’s game, when someone discovers what you do for a living. Before long they ask, “Can I ask you something about my shoulder?” Most providers either...
One of the most common things I hear from practice owners is some version of this: “I tried Facebook ads before, and they didn’t work.” Sometimes they hired an agency. Sometimes they boosted a few posts. Sometimes they spent a few hundred or even...
If you don’t have at least a 6-12 month follow-up system for patients after discharge, you’re leaving a lot of money on the table. Most practices either don’t follow up at all, or they send one message a few weeks later that says something like, “Just checking in to...

Let’s face it: insurance companies aren’t just screwing over private practices… they are pulling the rug out from under our patients as well. Once upon a time, they’d file a self-claim and get 40–50% back. Now? Quite often it’s Zero. That means more and more...
Every practice owner faces this at some point: you’ve got a great clinician, but their patients are dropping off way too early. You’ve given them the scripts, the strategies, the playbook… and yet nothing changes. It’s frustrating—and it threatens both your revenue...
Most clinics don’t fail because they’re bad at treatment—they stall because their tools don’t talk. EMR here. Scheduler there. Email somewhere else. A texting app. A CRM you meant to set up “one day.” In the gaps between them? Patients and leads fall through. ients...
If your cash-based practice is still a side hustle—or you’re flying solo—this episode is your wake-up call. You’re stuck in the Yo-Yo Schedule Loop: feast, famine, hustle back up… rinse, repeat. Been there. Done that. And trust me, it’s not sustainable....
