If you want a successful podiatry business, you need to
look after your team, WOW your patients and have well thought out
systems and processes that work flawlessly in the background making
sure everything comes together as it should. Few do this
better than Dr Peter Wishnie from New Jersey, USA.
Peter is the owner of Family Foot & Ankle Specialists, and is the author
of The Podiatry Business Solution - Everything
You Need To Know To Flourish In Your Podiatry Business.
He was also my guest on the Podiatry Legends Podcast, Ep 003 - Goals & Practice
Management.
On this episode we also discuss:
- The recipe for success
- The importance of a vision and mission
statement
"Give your patient a better quality of
life; your team will buy into this. Don’t talk about the millions
you want to make, that's not motivating".
- Organisational needs
- Speed of delivery
- Customer service and how to WOW your patients
- The importance of hiring upbeat, positive people,
and avoiding being understaffed.
- You cannot function efficiently without adequate
staff
"Your business growth is limited by what
you have. The number of staff and number of rooms. You can't expand
beyond your resources".
- Patients will not come back if they have a terrible
experience.
- Paying attention to the small details and getting
the basics right. Every major problem began with smaller
parts.
"Yes, your business needs marketing, but if you
can’t WOW your patients you’re wasting your
money".
- Creating systems and processes
- The most crucial business system to work on
first
- Why you need a GREAt website
Final Tip
The biggest mistake you can make is when your
business is doing exceptionally well, and you take our eyes off the
prize. You take your foot off the pedal and think you can
coast.
Instead, figure out what gave you the successes this
month, this year and don’t take your foot off the gas. Leaders
never take their foot off the pedal.
