🚀 Struggling with referral leakage in your allied health practice? You’re not alone.

I recently caught the Practiceology “7 Questions in 7 Minutes” podcast episode with Hunter McWhorter, who shared practical insights for allied health business owners who want to eliminate lost referrals, strengthen their operations, and truly stand out.

Here are three key takeaways for practitioners and clinic owners:

🔹 Don’t underestimate the basics: Even large practices can lose new patients simply by having the wrong info on Google. Claim your Google My Business listing and make sure your address, hours, and photos are accurate—it’s simple, but often overlooked!

🔹 Referral leakage isn’t just about doctors: Any touchpoint—friends, family, sports clubs, online ads—can be a source of missed opportunities. Map out every path new patients might take to your clinic, and shore up gaps internally before investing in more external marketing.

🔹 Create positive distractions: Build an environment where patients want to return and tell others about you. Hunter gave examples like letting patients choose the music played during their session, which builds community and boosts word of mouth.

Hunter also shared a free, no-strings-attached clinic operations scorecard to help identify your own gaps.

Just search “Hunter McWhorter” on LinkedIn and grab the resource from his featured posts.

Let’s keep our clinics thriving and referral pipelines full! 💪

🌟 Exciting Insights from the Latest Episode of 'Practiceology: 7 Questions in 7 Minutes' Podcast! 🌟

I had the pleasure of tuning into an eye-opening episode featuring Celia Champion from Painless Practice, where she shared her wisdom on growing private health practices effectively.

Here are my top three takeaways:

Understand Your Numbers: Celia emphasizes the importance of knowing your financial and operational statistics. This clarity can empower you to make informed decisions and drive your practice toward sustainable growth.

Maintain Work-Life Balance: Many practice owners struggle with burnout due to blurred lines between work and personal life. Recognizing these symptoms early and setting clear boundaries can foster a healthier environment.

Preserve Team Culture: As you expand, maintaining your core values and culture is crucial. Celia recommends giving your team autonomy and involving them in your practice's journey to keep that human connection intact.

If you're in the allied health sector and looking to grow without sacrificing your values or culture, this episode is a must-listen! 🎧
