In 2019, Ben Larsen, PT, DPT, co-owner of the Teton Therapy Cheyenne Location, had great goals of increasing his number of total visits per week by year-end to well over 200. Little did he know that by making appropriate, time-honored decisions he would hit well over 300 visits per month come 2020! His path to success wasn’t based on a new treatment technique or referral source. Rather, as Nathan Shields and Ben discuss in the interview, Ben hired people that were in alignment and he implemented what he knew he should be implementing (things he learned from his consultants and coaches in the past), and started tracking stats and training his team (future leaders). Suddenly, patients started coming in greater numbers than he had ever seen before and he wasn’t treating most the time! A great story of small and simple actions generating great results.

There is constant chatter about “which EMR is the best”, “what ERM do you use — and do you like it?”, and “what EMR should I use?” No PT-specific EMR has all the answers, and every EMR has pros and cons that make it seem like they’re all equally average and stuck 5-10 years behind current technology. PromptEMR shows us that there are new EMRs in development that, built on better platforms, can become the ideal EMRs we desire. Based on their patient-based perspective, PromptEMR was initially built to provider better communication with patients during their therapy episodes. Since then, it is striving to bring the rest of the business cycle and PT clinic employee tasks into the ‘20s, making everyday tasks and reports easy to perform and access. On this episode, the co-founders join Nathan Shields to share their story.

On today’s show, Nathan Shields talks to Mike Bills, PT, the President of Measurable Solutions and the CEO and Owner of Loudoun Sports Therapy in Sterling. Mike has seen some amazing growth in his PT clinic over the past few years, and it’s not because he started a new program that generated new patients or found a physician that loved how he treated patients. Rather, Mike has seen phenomenal growth because he has been focusing on himself and improving the different aspects of his personal life – physical, intellectual, professional, financial, etc. He teaches us the importance of focusing on oneself before focusing on others. Learn more from Mike on how you, too, can be the owner of your personal freedom and enjoy the life you have envisioned!

Tom Dalonzo-Baker is well known for his work as the Founder of Total Motion Release Seminars, but in his past he is also a successful PT clinic(s) owner that had to go through some tough transitions in order to run his business. From early on in his ownership, he recognized, however, that he needed help – another PT that could take some of his patient load as well as some consulting on how to run his business. Once he started taking the time to systematize his processes and manage his business through statistics and observation, Tom began to see real growth in his company as well as freedom for himself to develop Total Motion Release. His story is not unlike many other owners that have been on the podcast, and it represents the struggle that many owners face during their ownership – how do you get the freedom that you want without sacrificing the production of the clinic? Tom shares his experience in transitioning out of full-time patient care which led to real success.
