In today’s episode, Brad breaks down the uncomfortable truth: you’re not in the healthcare business — you’re in the people business. Inspired by Howard Schultz’s philosophy at Starbucks, this episode dives deep into why patient experience, human connection, and treating people with dignity will grow your practice faster than any marketing hack or payer contract.

Brad shares raw personal stories — from hitting rock bottom as a med student to losing a child — and explains how those moments shaped the culture at Thrive Medical. You’ll hear why empathy creates loyalty, how one waived copay turned into years of referrals, and why giant healthcare systems fail patients while independent practices win.

If you want to create a thriving practice, keep employees for life, and build a brand patients drive hours or even fly across the world to see, this episode will change how you lead.

Topics Covered:
– The Howard Schultz “people business” framework
– Why modern healthcare feels cold, rushed, and transactional
– How emotional connection creates lifelong patients
– The real reason people refer their doctors
– Turning low moments into leadership strengths
– How giving your staff autonomy builds loyalty
– Why culture is your only true competitive advantage
– The long-term ROI of treating people right

Perfect for: private practice physicians, medical entrepreneurs, clinic owners, and anyone tired of assembly-line medicine.

Most physicians believe the path to wealth is saving money, trimming overhead, and cutting small expenses — but that mindset keeps doctors broke. In this episode, Dr. Brad (InvestingDoc) breaks down why you can’t save your way to a $10 million net worth and why the only real path to generational wealth is increasing revenue and scaling strategically.

You'll learn:

• Why cost-cutting has a hard ceiling but revenue has infinite upside

• How Brad grew multiple locations and built a business that makes money even when he’s not in the clinic

• The biggest fears holding doctors back (hiring, marketing, debt, risk)

• Why cheap decisions (like choosing the wrong EMR) silently kill your growth

• How adding clinicians, after-hours, and cash-pay services can multiply your income

• The math behind margins, valuation multiples, and how a bigger clinic becomes exponentially more valuable

• The difference between being scrappy and being cheap

• How to shift from “lean thinking” to “scale thinking”

• What revenue levers you can pull TODAY to grow your practice

If you're tired of thinking small — and ready to build real wealth — this is your episode.
