In this episode, we continue our conversation with:Lieutenant-Colonel Luc Coates, Commanding Officer of 418 Search and Rescue Operational Training SquadronLieutenant-Colonel Francois Fasquelle, Commanding Officer of 442 Transport and Rescue SquadronMajor Dan Faux, subject matter expert on the CC-295 KingfisherWe begin with Dan's early days as a pilot and what led him to join the fixed-wing SAR project. From there, we explore why Canada needed a new fixed-wing Search and Rescue aircraft and what that journey looked like — from concept to selection. Finally, we dive deep into the Kingfisher itself: the modifications that set it apart, how it's performing in operations so far, and the process of training a new generation of SAR crews to fly it.

What if you positioned your practice like Tim Hortons in the land of Dunkin'?   By Editor-in-Chief, Concierge Medicine Today/Host, The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast   So, I'm riding shotgun with my teenage son who some of you have met, Matthew, riding through Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan (yes, that's a real place in Canada—not a children's book or a lumberjack's nickname). We're up there visiting family when suddenly, Matthew blurts out: “Hey Dad! Look—Tim Hortons!” You'd think he'd spotted Bigfoot holding a maple donut.   Now, we live in the southeastern U.S.—where Tim Hortons isn't exactly on every corner like it is up north (oddly enough though, they just opened one of two here in Suwanee, GA and Columbus, GA -- so lucky us!). Around here however, it's all Dunkin' Donuts, Krispy Kreme and Waffle House. But to us? Tim Hortons is like spotting a unicorn running a drive-thru window. Which is precisely the point!   This, my friends, is called 'scarcity marketing.'   Scarcity marketing is when something becomes more desirable simply because it's rare, hard to get, or only available some of the time. Ever had Duck Donuts? Those of you who know, you know, right!?   It's psychology. It's strategy. It's genius—and yet, most physicians and practice administrators in healthcare don't use it.   Let's bring it back to your work more specifically in concierge medicine.   Scarcity is sort of baked into the concierge medicine model isn't it? After all, most concierge doctors cap their patient panel. Their not located everywhere and heck, sometimes the doctor only takes on only 500 patients a year. You're not walking into that kind of practice on a whim with your phone in one had and WebMD printout in the other.   But here's where it gets tricky: Post-COVID, patients discovered this magical thing called options. Telehealth exploded. Everyone became a semi-professional medical researcher on Instagram and TikTok. Suddenly, your patients didn't need to be within 10 miles to “see” a doctor. And now that we've entered the golden age of medical TikToks and YouTube health webinar gurus, even your great aunt knows how to self-diagnose using AI.   The result? Patients are more informed, but not necessarily more connected.   That's where you and your concierge practice come in and have the advantage.   Sure, while accessibility is great, it's created a weird paradox. The more available something is, the less valuable it feels. Just ask Blockbuster how that went.   On top of that, many low-cost primary care and "affordable" (think sub $99/pmpm) subscription-based practices still haven't fully bounced back from their pre-pandemic rhythm. Why? Because “urgent care is just easier,” or so they've been told. It's the fast-food equivalent of healthcare—convenient, but not memorable, right?   Even still today, some medical practices have dropped their prices in hopes of attracting more patients. But marketing by being “the cheapest” (oops, sorry, most affordable) often becomes a race to the bottom. Spoiler alert: there's not a trophy at the bottom -- maybe just some warm fuzzies though!   One industry expert we interviewed and spoke to recently (eg. summer 2025) said "You can't market “time,” “access,” or “care coordination” as part of your cash-based model. Those terms are legally sensitive under Medicare/OIG guidance and the Civil Monetary Penalties Law. What you can market — and what works — are routine exams and communications that are clearly defined and compliant.When structured properly, these can be part of a concierge-style offering without stepping over legal lines. And remember, most if not all of those published price versions of cash healthcare are not structuring their fees/services to allow for employer/tax-advantaged funding, and perhaps their lower prices are unintentionally reflecting that. Pre-tax and employer funding options allow for higher prices points, and can be used to provide versions of this care with 100% employer funding—that can enable more folks to benefit from this care model.” (Eischen; 2025) Bottom line of what he's saying is: You don't have to water down your value — just market it the right way. Stay away from vague “access” claims and focus on tangible, documentable services. His best advice, work with legal counsel specifically familiar with this space to keep your messaging clean and compliant. You can find a list of those resources at the 2025 Concierge Medicine Forum, October 16–18, 2025 in Atlanta, GA USA or in the Business Center Section of our web site found here.   So what does work? Connection. Community. Belonging.   Remember what the U.S. Surgeon General said not long ago? The fastest-growing health issue in America isn't cancer or heart disease. It's loneliness. Yep, good old-fashioned no-one-to-call-at-midnight loneliness. And get this—it's reportedly as dangerous as smoking 15 cigarettes a day!   So now imagine you're a concierge doctor, and instead of just offering same-day appointments, you're offering connection. Patients want to feel like someone cares—like someone is on their team. And if your practice can deliver that? You're not just healthcare. You're a lifeline!   For example, that's why medical practices leaning into longevity medicine are seeing a new kind of traction. Patients aren't just looking for a quick fix. They want a partner for the long haul—someone who's going to help them stay well into their 90s (with their original knees, preferably).   Here's another example. Scarcity marketing is not unlike Harley-Davidson.   Bear with me. I know we've moved from donuts to motorcycles, but stay with me for another minute.   Harley-Davidson isn't just selling bikes. They're selling identity, loyalty, and a tight-knit community. People literally tattoo the brand on their bodies. They created H.O.G. (Harley Owners Group) to foster community. Similar to what Concierge Medicine Today has done with its FOR Doctors message. It's Harley's way of saying, “You're in the club. You belong.” And it works. That's scarcity marketing at its finest: “Not everyone gets to be a part of this. But you do!”   It's not exclusive though. There's a difference. Don't confuse the two which is often why concierge medicine gets the side eye in some circles.   Now ask yourself: What if your medical practice operated with the same mindset? What if you positioned your practice like Tim Hortons in the land of Dunkin'? What if instead of chasing volume, you created value—and made people (i.e. patients!) work just a little to be part of something special and personal?   That's the future of patient relationships, longevity and concierge medicine I think intersect.   And yes, we'll be diving into this and more at our upcoming 2025 Concierge Medicine Forum, October 16–18, 2025 in Atlanta. It's the Tim Hortons of medical conferences—rare, warm, slightly addictive, and worth the trip!   In the meantime, don't just market with more noise. Market with meaning. Don't aim to be everywhere. Aim to matter somewhere.   So again I ask … What if you positioned your practice like Tim Hortons in the land of Dunkin'?   Disclaimers: THIS SITE AND ANY OTHER CMT MANAGED OR OWNED WEB PROPERTY by Concierge Medicine Today, LLC (herein CMT) DOES NOT OFFER MEDICAL, FINANCIAL, LEGAL, OR OTHER PROFESSIONAL ADVICE.

Send us a textEvery moment counts. That's the lesson cancer taught me, and it's hitting home as I watch my son—now taller and stronger than me—prepare for his freshman year of high school.Since transforming this into a cancer-focused podcast, something unexpected happened. My inbox floods daily with pitches from authors, people who have had cancer, and researchers eager to share their stories. While I never planned an interview format, these voices deserve to be heard. Meanwhile, I've found a new comfort in sharing my own cancer journey, even fielding interest about turning my story into a book.But a simple phrase stopped me in my tracks: "You only have 18 summers with your children. Make them count." Before cancer, I consistently prioritized work over family. After facing mortality, I promised myself that would change. Now, with my main business Hike Like a Woman demanding attention—preparing for a Utah trip, another Kilimanjaro expedition, and managing website redesigns—something has to give.Family and adventure are my core values. To honor them, I'm pressing pause on this podcast, at least until I return from Kilimanjaro. Then I'll either reinvent it or let it go entirely. Cancer taught me that time is precious, and sometimes the most powerful choice is knowing when to step back. What would you like to hear if this podcast returns? Your feedback matters as I contemplate this next chapter. Until then, cherish your summer moments with those who matter most. Support the show? Have a question about our group trips?

Monday afternoon means a new episode of the Real Life podcast is recorded, edited, and ready to kick off your week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed coffee vs. energy drinks, the Moose Jaw Warriors, Succession's TV takeover, and much more.Tyler wanted to start the Monday episode of Real Life with a conversation about Jay reusing his coffee cup for water. Somehow, Jay's reusing his coffee cup led to a lengthy discussion about coffee vs. energy drinks and how Nation HQ has a pretty equal split of employees who consume one or the other.Wanye shifted the conversation to the Moose Jaw Warriors after the team's season is already winding down after winning the league championship last season. If anything, seeing Moose Jaw struggle the season after spending all of their draft capital for the change to build a one-year winner should be a reminder of what can happen when you go all-in so aggressively.Turning the podcast to the Oilers, Tyler recapped the charity event he was at last night that featured Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. As you'll hear, it was fun for Tyler to experience a night with the Nuge and also included an interesting observation that you'll love to hear about city's favourite son. As it turns, out Nugent-Hopkins is as nice as you'd ever hope he is and Tyler was all to happy to confirm it.Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a random collection of topics, including Tyler's big betting wins, the Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl injury timelines, Trent Frederic's giant hands. As always, the Monday episode of Real Life was all over the map, precisely what you'd expect from this podcast.
