In this episode, I walk through one of the highest-yield exercises I do with coaching clients: designing the patient experience from beginning to end.

We cover everything from how patients find your practice and schedule appointments to check-in, triage, the visit itself, and after-visit follow-up...including important differences for telemedicine practices.

Small workflow decisions can completely change how patients experience your practice.

If patients can’t reach your office efficiently, it impacts everything... workflow, satisfaction, efficiency, and trust.

In this episode, I’m breaking down simple but important things to think through when creating your office phone system, from call routing and voicemail setup to setting expectations for callbacks and refill requests. Small systems make a big difference.

This week’s Thursday Shift is for the physicians quietly thinking:

“But what if I have to fire someone?”

In this episode, I talk about the reality of leadership in private practice, why difficult staffing decisions are sometimes unavoidable, and why keeping the wrong person too long can hurt your team, patients, and business more than letting them go.

You do not have to be a perfect leader to build a successful practice. You just have to be willing to grow into ownership.

If you’ve been thinking about starting a private practice, you’ve probably told yourself, “I’ll open in about 12 months.”

In this episode, I break down why that timeline often doesn’t work—and how to build one that actually does.

I share what my timeline looked like (January → April → July) and how I structured my time while still working full-time.

We’ll talk about tying your timeline to real decisions, building it around your actual life, and what to do when delays happen.
