Podcasts about clinics

This episode dives into healthcare leadership, clinician burnout, and what actually creates thriving clinical cultures. Jimmy sits down with Hollie Cunningham — a PT who now splits her time between treating patients and reshaping how clinics support their teams. From early warning signs of burnout to practical ways to engage PT students and new grads, this is your playbook for building a culture that lasts.In This Episode:Why burnout often shows up as disengagement firstHow to support clinicians without micromanagingWhat PT students should ask in job interviewsThe red flags of fake DEI programsWhy consistent mentorship beats unlimited Con EdGame Segment: "Culture Check: Red Flag or Green Flag?"Parting Shot: “Everyone wants to be seen, heard, and understood.”

When patients need answers fast, most urgent cares still default to on-site X-ray or referrals—but there's a smarter, more efficient tool that can elevate your clinical care, improve outcomes, and drive new revenue.In this episode, Nick and Michael sit down with Dr. Tatiana Havryliuk, a board-certified emergency physician and founder of Hello Sono, to explore how point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is transforming urgent care from the inside out. With over 15 years of ER experience and deep ultrasound expertise, Dr. Tatiana shares how POCUS can help urgent cares confidently diagnose more in-house, avoid unnecessary ER visits, and open the door to repeat patients who trust your clinic to deliver next-level care.They unpack what POCUS is, how it compares to X-ray, where it fits in urgent care workflows, and what it takes to implement it without overwhelming your team. Whether you're in a rural location, struggling with X-ray staffing, or ready to grow by offering higher-value services, this conversation is full of practical insights and strategic takeaways.

In this episode of Ditch the Labcoat, Dr. Mark Bonta does something different. For the first time on the podcast, he speaks with a former patient.Nora Rabah Rodden joins the show not as a clinician, but as someone who lived for years with debilitating symptoms that medicine couldn't explain or fix. Despite normal tests and repeated reassurance, her pain, GI symptoms, fatigue, and nervous system distress persisted. What she encountered instead was a gap in care. Not a lack of effort, but a lack of framework.Nora shares how learning about neuroplasticity and nervous system patterning finally gave her symptoms context. Not imagined. Not psychological. Learned, reinforced, and reversible. That experience became the foundation for why she later co-founded Nervana.Together, they explore why so many patients are dismissed once serious disease is ruled out, how threat signaling and conditioned responses can keep the body stuck in symptoms, and why telling patients “nothing is wrong” is often the most harmful message of all. The conversation breaks down the science of neuroplastic recovery in plain language, while staying honest about its limits and responsibilities.This episode is about what happens when medicine runs out of explanations, and what becomes possible when we stop treating unexplained symptoms as a dead end and start treating the nervous system as something that can learn, adapt, and heal.Nora's Link : https://www.trynervana.com/Episode Takeaways 1. Patient Experience Matters: Normal tests do not equal normal lives. Symptoms can persist even when disease is ruled out.2. Neuroplastic Symptoms Are Real: Learned nervous system patterns can drive pain, GI distress, fatigue, and insomnia without structural damage.3. “Nothing Is Wrong” Is Harmful: Reassurance without explanation often deepens fear, confusion, and isolation.4. Symptoms Can Be Learned and Unlearned: The brain adapts quickly, for better or worse, and those patterns are reversible.5. This Is Not Psychosomatic: Neuroplastic recovery is grounded in neuroscience, not imagination or positive thinking.6. Awareness Changes Identity: When patients stop identifying with symptoms, recovery often begins.7. Recovery Is Gradual, Not Dramatic: Progress usually looks subtle, steady, and cumulative rather than sudden.8. Lived Experience Can Build Better Care: Nora's recovery is why Nervana exists, to close the gap medicine often leaves behind.Episode Timestamps04:18 – Why This Episode Is Different: The First Patient Voice08:36 – When Tests Are Normal but Symptoms Are Not13:09 – The Gap Between Disease and Dysfunction18:52 – Neuroplasticity Explained Without the Jargon24:35 – Why “Nothing Is Wrong” Can Be Harmful30:13 – How the Nervous System Learns Symptoms36:56 – What Recovery Actually Looks Like in Practice43:14 – Turning Lived Experience Into a Care FrameworkDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

Clinics are growing — but staff are leaving. Burnout is peaking. And your cash flow might be bleeding out.In this episode, Jimmy breaks down the brand new 2026 Rehab Therapy Industry Report — based on data from 550+ outpatient practices — to answer the big questions:Why are 80% of PTs considering leaving the profession?What do high-growth clinics do differently to thrive in this economy?How are automation and AI changing clinic survival and staff retention?What behavior patterns predict burnout and audit risk?And what one thing you should fix first.???? This is the State of the Union for rehab therapy — packed with insights clinic owners, directors, and providers can't afford to ignore.

In this podcast, experts Tiffany A. Traina, MD, FASCO; Nour Abuhadra, MD; Joshua Z. Drago, MD, MS; Ruth O'Regan, MD; Vered Stearns, MD, FASCO; Neil Vasan, MD, PhD; and Anna Weiss, MD, discuss the evolving treatment landscape across breast cancer subtypes and lines of care. Gamified case-based discussion will focus on integrating the latest practice-changing data into clinical practice to optimize care for patients with breast cancer.

In this episode, we're talking about preventive care marketing, how to attract patients who want to stay ahead of problems, not just react when something hurts.If your marketing mostly speaks to pain and urgent symptoms, you can end up in a cycle of one-time visits and inconsistent momentum. Preventive care content helps you reach the “I feel fine, but…” crowd, the desk workers, active adults, busy parents, and anyone noticing early warning signs who wants a clear plan before things spiral.You'll learn a simple framework for what to publish, how to talk about prevention without sounding pushy, and how to guide someone from awareness to taking action. I'll also share an easy monthly content strategy you can repeat without posting every day, plus the language that helps this kind of content convert.If you want to build a steady stream of patients who value consistency and long-term progress, this is for you.

Specialty Clinics in Optometry: Lessons from Building a Successful Dry Eye Practice | E289Highlights from this episode: Specialty Clinics in Optometry: Lessons from Building a Successful Dry Eye Practice (01:09)Closing Thought: Multi-Practice Insights from The Power Hour (24:40)If you're thinking about starting a specialty clinic, this episode is my honest, no-fluff take on what I'd do differently knowing what I know now. In my case with dry eye, it isn't about buying an IPL or chasing shiny equipment, but it's about building a system, aligning your team, and making ocular surface disease part of how you practice every single day. We talk strategy, efficiency, revenue per patient, and why growth sometimes means seeing fewer patients—but doing it better. These principles apply to dry eye, but honestly, they apply to any specialty clinic you're considering adding to your practice.Join in the conversation and subscribe to the podcast to keep up with all the great content coming down the pipe!

In this episode of the World Extreme Medicine Podcast, host Eoin Walker speaks with Corinne Palma, a recently graduated veterinarian from University College Dublin and Vice President of the International Veterinary Students' Association.Together, they explore how veterinary medicine extends far beyond the clinic — from field anaesthesia innovations and drone-assisted wildlife monitoring to the ethical challenges of intervention and the growing importance of One Health.Corinne shares insights from her experience across small animal clinics, conservation projects, and research labs, and discusses the traits and training needed for the next generation of veterinarians working in extreme environments.You can connect with Corinne via social media:InstagramLinkedIn.

Welcome to Legal Late Night! In this episode, host Jared Correia breaks down the shifting landscape of law firm marketing for 2026 and dives deep into the world of legal education with clinical supervisor Leticia Leal.   First, Jared shares his monologue on the rise of AI Search Optimization (AEO). He explains why content marketing and short-form video are more critical than ever as AI begins to infiltrate traditional search engines. He also challenges lawyers to look beyond Google Ads and explore alternative platforms like Reddit, Twitch, and LinkedIn to capture a younger client base.  Then, we are joined by Leticia Leal from the University of Houston Law Center. Leticia shares her journey of becoming a lawyer in both Brazil and Texas, explaining the fundamental differences between civil law and common law systems. We discuss the "roach-free" University of Houston immigration clinic, how AI is (and isn't) being used by law students, and the "internet famous" status she achieved through her creative LinkedIn content.  Finally, don't miss the Counter Program: "Duo Lingo." Leticia helps Jared (who is Portuguese but can't speak the language) translate famous pop culture phrases into Brazilian Portuguese—from Die Hard one-liners to Seinfeld references.  Learn more about Leticia Leal here. Check out this week's Spotify playlist. Oh, man! I bet you didn't know how much you were missing Jared's unique take on culture, legal practice, and whatever else pops into his head. But don't fret, there's plenty to go around.

3D printing is no longer a future concept in podiatry. It's already reshaping how clinics think about orthotics, turnaround times, and control over their systems. In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I'm joined by returning guest Kieran Carew from Foot Health Orthotics FIT4U, to unpack what's really happening with 3D printed orthotics inside podiatry clinics. Kieran brings a unique perspective, combining decades of experience in orthotics with a background in engineering and biomechanics. We explore the practical realities of bringing 3D printing in-house, including setup, training, calibration, CAD design, and the importance of education. This isn't a glossy tech discussion. It's an honest look at what works, what doesn't, and why technology without understanding can quickly become a headache. We also dive into the business side of the conversation. Reduced lab fees, faster turnaround times, improved margins, and greater control over the orthotic process are all on the table. We discuss why more clinics are rethinking their reliance on traditional lab and how visible technology in a clinic can even influence patient engagement and orthotic uptake. If you've been curious about 3D printing but unsure where it fits in your clinic, this episode will give you clarity. If you're at a point where you're thinking about systems, scalability, margins, or simply running a calmer, more profitable clinic, you're welcome to reach out and talk with me. There's no pressure, no pitch. Just a conversation to see if coaching is the right next step for you.

Dr. Ford Brewer's story is not about hacks or shortcuts. It is about a physician who left the adrenaline of the emergency department to confront a quieter, more uncomfortable reality. Most of the heart attacks and strokes he saw should never have happened. At Hopkins, in public health, and later in his own practice, he realized how profoundly our future health is shaped by habits that feel small in the moment and by metabolic problems that remain invisible for decades.In this conversation, we unpack what “test, do not guess” really looks like in real life. We talk about the epidemic of undiagnosed prediabetes, why fasting glucose and A1C miss so much disease, and how an old school oral glucose tolerance test can reveal what is really happening under the surface. Dr. Brewer explains continuous glucose monitors, why leg muscle acts like an internal safety valve for high blood sugar, and how small “exercise snacks” can protect you more than heroic gym bursts. We dig into the GLP 1 craze, the politics of food guidelines, and the uncomfortable reality that some systems profit from people staying sick.So whether you are a clinician, a patient who has been told your labs are “fine,” or someone who simply wants to stay out of the cath lab in your 50s, this episode is a sharp reset. It will change how you think about carbs, muscle, and “normal aging,” and it will give you tangible ways to take back agency over your metabolism. Plug in and see what happens when prevention stops being boring advice and becomes a clear plan for protecting the decades ahead.Ford Brewer MD MPH's Links : YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmoEsq6a6ePXxgZeA4CVrUw  Website : https://drfordbrewermd.com/Episode Takeaways 1. Building Better Habits – Long term health depends far more on daily routines than on motivation or willpower. Action beats intention every time.2. Discomfort Drives Growth – Improvement requires stepping outside comfort zones. Sustainable prevention often starts with doing what you do not feel like doing.3. Prevention Is Undervalued – Preventive medicine is dismissed as boring, yet most chronic disease stems from issues that could have been avoided years earlier.4. Prediabetes Is Everywhere – With half the population showing signs of impaired glucose control, early metabolic testing should be a universal priority.5. A1C Is Not Enough – Standard labs miss a large percentage of metabolic disease. Old school glucose tolerance testing reveals problems long before symptoms appear.6. CGMs Change Behavior – Real time glucose feedback helps people finally understand how food and activity affect their bodies and motivates true habit change.7. Muscle Protects Metabolism – Strong, active leg muscles act as metabolic engines that help control glucose spikes and support long term vascular health.8. Food Systems Shape Disease – Big Food, outdated guidelines, and institutional incentives influence what people eat and directly contribute to chronic illness.Episode Timestamps 00:02:32 — Meet Dr. Kang Hsu, Chief Medical Officer of Canary Speech00:03:44 — How voice became medicine: the story behind Canary Speech00:04:29 — Why this conversation matters to clinicians and patients alike00:05:05 — Making science accessible: breaking down complex ideas00:06:59 — Behind the mic: how each episode comes together00:07:59 — Keeping it real: refining, revising, and staying authentic00:09:00 — Can your voice reveal your health?

Have you ever tried everything - trainers, lessons, clinics, online programs - and still felt like something wasn't clicking with your horse? In this episode, I explore the different support options available in the equestrian world and why so many thoughtful, caring equestrians end up feeling confused, stuck, or doubting themselves… even when they're doing all the "right" things. We talk about: The pros and limitations of trainers, in-person lessons, clinics, and online learning Why fragmented support often creates more confusion, not confidence How nervous system safety (for both horse and human) is often the missing piece The quiet cost of cycling through support that doesn't truly fit The questions that help you discern what kind of support will actually work for you This episode is especially for sensitive, reflective equestrians who don't want to force their horse - or themselves - through what doesn't feel right for them and who are craving clarity, coherence, and a more compassionate way forward. ✨ Looking for deeper support?

Erez Druk, CEO of Freed, was motivated to bring technology to the healthcare environment based on his wife's experience as a family medicine doctor.  Freed was founded to alleviate the provider's administrative burdens by leveraging AI to streamline pre-visit preparation, billing, and EHR maintenance.  The focus is on small and rural private practices, giving them tools to save time, reduce costs, and maintain their independence. Erez explains, "So the need that I identified, together with my wife Gabi, was that clinicians need more time in their lives. They want to spend less time on this admin work and more time again with their patients and families. And that was it, thinking about how we can use these new technologies and feel better products that really take care of that, help clinicians be happier and freer, hence the name Freed. Yes, super proud now to be supporting more than 25,000 clinicians who will use Freed to do a lot of this work for them. So that's how the need was identified for years of watching the pain, let's say."   "But my background is, so I studied mathematics and computer science back in Israel. So I'm originally from Israel. In the Technion, we like to think of Technion as the MIT of Israel. So I studied there as an undergrad, and then I moved to the Bay Area to work for Facebook as an engineer. I was very lucky to start on the same day on the same team with this guy named Andrey, who, 10 years later, after lots of convincing, is my co-founder and CTO. So he is the real technical brain behind what we're doing here. So I worked as an engineer and tech lead at Facebook, and then I started working in my first startup called UrbanLeap." "And with EHR integration- I'm going a bit into the weeds here- but EHR integration is a big problem in healthcare that is mostly unsolved. So, we built an agent, which we call "EHR Push," that goes into the EHR and, like a human, finds the right fields, navigates to the right places, and puts the note and everything in the EHR for the clinician. And it's working amazingly. It saves clinicians a lot of time. And that's another example of how we apply this agentic AI to solve more and more complex problems for the clinician, keep it simple, and just save as much time as we can for clinicians." #FreedAI  #AIscribes #HealthcareAI #ClinicianBurnout #HealthTech #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareAI #MedicalDocumentation #HealthcareInnovation #DigitalHealth #PhysicianWellness #HealthcareEfficiency #MedTech GetFreed.AI Download the transcript here

"Whoever makes patient care more convenient is likely to win." - Chris YarnMy guest this week is Chris Yarn, Founder of Walk On Clinic, who joins me to explain why convenience is the ultimate currency in healthcare. Chris shares his journey from insurance broker to building a direct primary care (DPC) model that brings care directly to the employee's doorstep - literally.Chris breaks down the "Walk On" model, which combines mobile on-site clinics, near-site access, and virtual care to achieve utilization rates that are double the industry average. We discuss why traditional "near-site" clinics often fail to engage employees, how nurse practitioners are the key to scaling primary care, and why the human connection is what truly drives ROI.We also dive into the hard numbers, discussing how to prove ROI with real claims data (not just fuzzy math), and Chris shares his personal battle with cancer in 2024 that reinforced his belief in the importance of early detection and primary care access.Tune in to the first episode of 2026 to learn why the future of healthcare is hyper-convenient.Thank you to our 2026 sponsors!ParetoHealth: ParetoHealth empowers midsize employers with a long-term solution to reduce volatility and lower overall health benefits costs.

In this special New Year's Eve solo episode, Dr. Mark Bonta steps away from the guest format to reflect on a landmark year for Ditch the Labcoat and to share where the show is headed next.After surpassing 50 episodes and approaching episode 100, Dr. Bonta looks back on how the podcast evolved in 2025. What started as a more traditional interview-style medical show has grown into deeper, more philosophical conversations about performance, longevity, mental health, neuroplastic symptoms, and the human side of healthcare.Using a surprising year-end analytics insight from his recording platform, he explores why the word “athlete” became one of the most frequently used terms on the show, and what that reveals about how healthcare, high performance, parenting, and recovery intersect. He also shares a candid and self-aware resolution for 2026, including how small environmental changes can shape better habits both personally and professionally.Looking ahead, Dr. Bonta outlines meaningful shifts for the podcast in 2026. Expect fewer episodes, greater depth, clearer thematic focus, and more intentional preparation to better honor guests and their work. He also highlights future areas of exploration, including neuroplastic and invisible illnesses, long COVID, chronic fatigue, high-performance mindsets, and the role of technology and AI in improving care.The episode closes with a deeply personal reflection on caregiving. A simple moment at home caring for his daughter leads to a broader meditation on touch, nursing, administrative burden, burnout, and why “caring” remains the most essential and fragile element of modern healthcare.This episode is both a thank-you to listeners and a statement of purpose for the year ahead.Mark Bonta's Links : https://ditchthelabcoat.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-bonta-/ Episode Takeaway 1. Healthcare as Performance: Why the Athlete Mindset Keeps Appearing — Recovery, sleep, nutrition, and training principles apply far beyond elite sports.2. Filler Words Reveal Thinking: What “So” Says About Deep Conversation — Pauses often signal reflection, curiosity, and cognitive processing, not incompetence.3. Behavior Change Starts at Home: Environment Shapes Outcomes — The easiest habits are the ones your surroundings make unavoidable.4. Longevity Is Not Biohacking: It's Consistency Over Intensity — Sustainable routines outperform extreme interventions every time.5. Quality Over Quantity: Fewer Episodes, Deeper Impact — Better preparation and focus create more meaningful learning for listeners.6. Invisible Illnesses Are Real: When Scans Don't Explain Suffering — Neuroplastic symptoms demand credibility, nuance, and evidence-based care.7. Administrative Burden Erodes Care: Documentation Steals Time From Healing — Systems often pull clinicians away from the bedside.8. Burnout's Red Flag: When Caring Disappears — Loss of empathy is a warning sign that support and reflection are urgently needed.Episode Timestamps05:08 – Why “Athlete” Became One of the Most Used Words on the Show07:27 – The Most Commonly Used Word on Ditch the Labcoat (And Why It Matters)09:44 – Setting Yourself Up for Success: Habits, Environment, and Behavior Change11:39 – Longevity Lessons from Athletes and Everyday Life14:02 – Quality Over Quantity: How the Podcast Evolves in 202617:25 – Neuroplastic and Invisible Illnesses: What Medicine Still Misses19:25 – Caregiving, Touch, and the Administrative Burden of Modern Medicine24:15 – Burnout, Red Flags, and the Importance of Never Stopping CaringDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

The Irish Blood Transfusion Service is urging people in Clare to donate blood in the coming days to ensure their vital supply has a strong footing heading into 2026 Due to a shortage of donations over Christmas, stocks have dipped nationally with less than three days of A negative blood available. Clinics will be held in the West County Hotel in Ennis today and tomorrow from 1:50pm until 5:10pm on both days to help replenish supplies. Broadford based  Recruitment Executive Alex O'Connor says the demand for blood supply is ever increasing.

This podcast, a presentation at the Collaborative Family Healthcare Association 2025 conference in Raleigh, North Carolina, explores the intersection of behavioral healthcare in primary care settings through two Integrated Care models: the collaborative care model (CoCM) and the primary care behavioral health model (PCBH). CoCM utilizes a structured interdisciplinary approach to deliver evidence based behavioral interventions alongside medication recommendation and management. PCBH adopts an integrated care approach, embedding behavioral health consultants within the primary care setting, making it easier for patients to receive holistic treatment. We will discuss key components, patient outcomes, collaboration, techniques, and lessons learned in an academic family medicine clinic.

Most TRT clinics don't have a testosterone problem—they have a standards problem. In this solo episode, Dave Lee recaps a month of travel and teaching (Melbourne's Trinitas Trade Expo and the Silverback Summit in Orlando) and shares what still shocks him every time he steps outside his “echo chamber”: the abysmally low standard of care that has become normal in men's health—globally. Dave breaks down the biggest TRT red flags he's seeing in December 2025, including: The “Burger, Fries, and Coke” protocol: a cookie-cutter combo of testosterone + AI + hCG sold by default because it's profitable—not because it's indicated Clinics using fear-based selling (“You'll get infertile,” “You'll grow boobs”) to upsell ancillaries before you even know what you need Minimal lab work that only checks if you “qualify,” not what's actually driving symptoms (and why comprehensive assessment matters) The newer trend: clinics that push peptides on everyone—often as trendy add-ons rather than targeted tools tied to a real need Why prophylactic aromatase inhibitor use is one of the clearest warning signs of poor care The red flag that shows up later: no real follow-up, support, or education—leaving you to crowdsource your health online This episode is a practical checklist for anyone considering TRT (or already on it) who wants to identify clinics that prioritize outcomes over upsells—and find care that's individualized, evidence-informed, and actually supportive.

In this episode, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with pediatrician and medical journalist Dr. Alok Patel to unpack what it really means to keep kids healthy in a chaotic healthcare system and a distracted digital world. Starting with a story about Mark's nine year old getting injured at hockey, they dive into how parents can respond to injuries and illness without panicking, how to check your own emotions first, and when a situation truly belongs in the emergency department versus urgent care or a clinic visit.Drawing on his frontline pediatric experience, Dr. Patel breaks down practical red flags for parents to watch for, like increased work of breathing or changes in mental status, and explains why ER waits feel so brutal yet often reflect deeper system issues like staffing and bed shortages. He shares behind the scenes stories from “The Pitt” and his work on the official HBO companion podcast, highlighting how accurately the show captures social determinants of health and the emotional reality of modern emergency care.From there, the conversation moves into vaccines, flu season, and the very human fact that even doctors sometimes struggle to follow all their own advice. Mark and Alok talk candidly about phones, social media, Roblox, and why today's kids are essentially part of a live experiment in screen exposure. They close with a focus on what actually protects kids long term: safe, nonjudgmental adults, honest conversations about mental health, limits around screens, and a home environment that values connection over perfection.Dr. Alok Patel's https://www.alokpatelmd.com/Episode Takeaways1. Parent First, Patient Second: Kids borrow their reaction from you, so the first step in any injury or illness is to calm your own emotions before you decide what to do.2. ER vs Clinic: Not every vomit, bump, or fever is life threatening, and learning when to use urgent care or outpatient clinics can spare families long, stressful ER waits.3. Triage Reality Check: Emergency departments prioritize the sickest patients first, which means long waits for minor issues are frustrating but often a sign the system is doing its job.4. Medicine Behind the Camera: The Pit shows how accurate medical details can sit in the background while stories focus on the real emotional chaos of patients, families, and staff.5. Social Determinants in Real Time: Two kids with the same diagnosis can have completely different outcomes depending on housing, income, family support, and access to care.6. Doctors Are Human Too: Even physicians miss flu shots, struggle with habits, or feel guilty, which can actually make their public health messages more relatable, not less credible.7. Screens and Social Media: The real risk is not one device but a constant digital environment that shapes brain development, sleep, self esteem, and social skills in ways we are only starting to understand.8. Safe Adults Save Lives: The most powerful protection for teens is a nonjudgmental adult who listens, normalizes hard conversations, and gives kids a place to bring their worst thoughts without fear.Episode Timestamps02:06 – Hockey Rink Medicine: How Doctors Triage Their Own Kids04:07 – Parents First: Calming Yourself Before You React to Injury06:50 – ER, Urgent Care, or Clinic: How to Decide Where Your Child Belongs09:37 – Waiting Room Reality: Triage, Delays, and Why Sickest Kids Go First12:34 – Inside “The Pit”: TV Emergency Medicine, Accuracy, and Chaos24:50 – Flu Shots, Doctor Guilt, and Why Practice Often Lags Advice31:06 – Kids, Phones, and Social Media: The Live Experiment on Their Brains37:08 – Teen Mental Health Red Flags: Subtle Signs and Safe Adult Spaces >>>>>> The expressed opinions belong solely to the hosts and guests, and they do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of the Hospitals, Clinics, Universities, or any other organization associated with the host or guests.    Disclosures: Ditch The Lab Coat podcast is produced by (soundsdebatable.com) and is independent of Dr. Bonta's teaching and research roles at McMaster University, Temerty Faculty of Medicine and Queens University.

From Invisible to In-Demand: Andrew Newland on SEO, Trust & Functional Medicine MarketingIn this episode, I sit down with Andrew Newland — founder and CEO of Functional Medicine Marketing. Andrew is a digital strategist who works exclusively with functional and integrative medicine clinics, helping them grow their visibility, attract new patients, and reclaim precious time through sustainable, SEO-driven marketing systems. He's also the author of Digital Marketing and SEO for Functional Medicine Practices and a sought-after voice in the space, having appeared on shows like The Functional Medicine Nurse and The Junto.Andrew brings much-needed clarity to an industry where most practitioners didn't go to med school to become marketers. From reviews to rankings to regulations, he breaks down what actually works — without the hype, the “30 patients in 30 days” promises, or the tech overwhelm.We cover:Why functional and integrative medicine is a uniquely challenging niche to marketThe trust gap: why patients need more time, proof, and education before saying “yes”How to ask for reviews without feeling slimy — and what to say word-for-wordWhy Google reviews matter more than you think (for both humans and SEO)The 3 pillars of SEO: technical, content, and local — and how clinics often miss 2 of themA simple, free test (PageSpeed Insights) to see what Google really thinks of your siteHow to structure “content silos” so your blogs lift your whole site, not just one postUsing blogs that nobody reads (on purpose!) to improve rankings across your entire siteHow to combine AI with human stories so Google doesn't treat your content like generic fluffAEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and what tools like ChatGPT mean for local clinicsOptimizing your Google Business Profile: Q&A, updates, geotagged photos, and responsesHow to market “sensitive” services like peptides, PRP, and holistic cancer care without getting flaggedThe “trifecta” of digital marketing: SEO, Google Ads, and Facebook/Instagram ads working togetherReal case studies: from barely-any-patients to consistently closing high-ticket programsWhy mindset, desperation, and unrealistic timelines can quietly sabotage your marketing

Longevity, Cash PT, and the $8 Trillion Opportunity You Can't Ignore In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down why the global shift toward longevity is one of the biggest opportunities cash-based physical therapists will see in their careers. He shares real-world examples from high-end longevity models, explains why proactive, long-term health programming is exploding, and shows how cash PTs are uniquely positioned to lead this space. Quick Ask If this episode gets your wheels turning about longevity and long-term care, share it with another clinician who needs to hear it—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Episode Summary Patient experience as an edge: While competitors step out mid-session to finish notes, you can stay fully engaged by using Clair, an AI scribe that handles documentation instantly. Operational advantage: Clair gives you more time for follow-ups, planning, and patient touchpoints—leading to better retention and more efficient operations. Danny's background: Staff PT, active duty military PT, cash practice founder, seller, and now founder of PT Biz, which has helped 1,000+ clinicians start, grow, and scale their own cash practices. The longevity trend: Patients are realizing they'll live longer and want to be proactive, not reactive, about their health and performance. 10x-style models: Peter Attia's "10x"/10 Squared-type gym in Austin employs performance clinicians doing assessments, hands-on care, and programming over months and years at premium pricing. Equinox Longevity: Equinox launched a longevity offering priced around $35,000–$45,000 per year, combining assessments, bloodwork, training, and bodywork. Market validation: Big brands like Equinox don't roll out programs like this without deep market research—there is clear demand. The $8 trillion forecast: A UBS report projects the global longevity market could reach roughly $8 trillion by 2030. High continuity, low volume: Danny's friend running a longevity-focused model only needs ~30–40 new patients per year because clients stay for years. LTV over churn: With long-term, continuity-based care, you don't need a constant flood of new patients—you need strong retention and deep relationships. What these programs include: Long-term programming, movement and performance assessments, VO2 max testing, force plate work, blood panel interpretation, and lifestyle coaching around sleep, nutrition, and stress. Why cash PT is perfect for this: No insurance rules; you can spend an hour on sleep, stress, or habit coaching if that's what the patient needs. Visual differentiation: Cash clinics often look and feel like a high-performance lab or gym—nothing like a crowded hospital outpatient clinic. Community and referrals: Patients in long-term programs naturally talk about what they're doing and pull friends and family into your ecosystem. Tech as a differentiator: Tools like force plates, VO2 testing, structured assessments, and periodic retests make progress visible and drive buy-in. Standardizing longevity in cash PT: Danny sees longevity as a pillar every successful cash practice will eventually integrate in some form. Not one-size-fits-all: You can build your own version—solo, with a functional medicine group, or as part of a broader performance ecosystem. Lessons & Takeaways Longevity is a macro trend: People know they're going to live longer and want to invest in staying active, capable, and independent. Continuity beats volume: A few dozen long-term clients can support a strong business if they stay with you for years. Cash PT has structural advantages: You're not limited by insurance codes, visit caps, or what a payer thinks is "medically necessary." Data builds trust: Objective testing plus retesting makes progress real and keeps clients engaged. Longevity is "sticky" business: Once people see value in long-term health, they're less price sensitive and more loyal. Early adopters benefit most: Clinics that build longevity offerings now get ahead of a trend that large systems are just starting to chase. Mindset & Motivation Think in decades, not visits: Stop viewing patients as "10-visit plans" and start thinking in 5–10 year relationships. See yourself as a guide, not a fixer: You're not just solving pain—you're guiding someone's health span and performance over time. Health is real wealth: For your patients and for you—longevity work aligns your business model with what truly matters. Don't wait for permission: You don't need a big brand or hospital system to validate this for you; the demand already exists. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Start with what you know: Build a simple longevity track around your existing strengths: strength, mobility, running, or performance. Add one objective test: Integrate VO2 testing, force plate jumps, or standardized movement screens with baseline + retest cycles. Layer in basic lifestyle coaching: Learn enough about sleep, stress, and nutrition to guide your patients or partner with someone who can. Use tech wisely: Don't buy everything at once—choose tools you'll actually use and that support your specific model. Leverage an AI scribe: Implement Clair so documentation doesn't steal time from long, relationship-based care. Notable Quotes "People are realizing they're going to live longer—and they want to be proactive, not reactive." "If a giant like Equinox is rolling out a $40,000-a-year longevity program, they've done the research. The demand is there." "My buddy needs 30 to 40 new patients a year. That's it. What game do you want to play?" "Cash-based PTs are uniquely positioned to capitalize on this trend—we're not handcuffed by insurance." "Health is real wealth. If you're not healthy, it doesn't matter how much money you have." Action Items Audit your current services: where could you naturally extend into long-term, proactive care? Sketch a simple 6–12 month "longevity track" for your ideal client, including assessments and retests. Identify one piece of tech or testing you could add to make your results more objective and compelling. Look for local partners (functional medicine, labs, coaches) who could complement your skill set. Consider using Clair to free up time so you can deepen relationships instead of chasing notes.
