The Growth Cycle Of a Clinic
- Focusing on the right activity at the right time is one of the keys to success. In this session, we will walk through the Growth Stages of a clinic and what attention should be focused at each stage.
Dr Sachin Patel
10:00 AM – 10:50 AM
The Power Of Branding To Attract Doctors and Patients
- My presentation will begin by dispelling myths about the value of design and branding to smaller, privately-owned businesses – those that suggest branding is a ’soft issue’ and that returns that are somehow vague and immeasurable.
- I will then show how branding and design adds value with four key outcomes – one of which is the creation of valuable relationships. This is a key component in attracting the very best talent and generating better net promoter scores with your patients.
Lee Selsick

The Accounting Roadmap
- All about recruitment and retention of doctors.
- Good doctors will always have options and Lifestyle options – something to suit the doctor and their family
- What motivates the doctor? Teaching? Money?
- Contracts and marketing – support for their special interests – review your patient base
- The finance and business function of a general practice plays an important role not only in the recruitment of doctors but keeping the doctors you have.
- In a tight market you can be assured that your doctors are being approached on a regular basis by recruiters and even other practice owners to come and work for them.
- Each doctor will have different motivators that tick their boxes and it is important for a practice owner to be aware of these and then ensure that their practice can deliver on them.
- A strategic plan and then an implementation plan can help to ensure that your entire team is working cohesively to deliver your Vision of your practice and to be the best you can be.
- A strong finance function, where the owner and practice manager are across the “numbers” of the practice can ensure that the practice is performing financially and that you understand the value of each doctor and what they bring to the practice. Understanding your finances is also necessary to minimise wastage and every financial opportunity is being taken advantage of.
Paul Copeland
02:30 PM – 03:20 PM
Leaders Journey

Five Easy Steps To Bigger Profits
- Each of us starts a business to solve a problem or address a need in the community. After we start this usually happens: the community gets what they need. Often though it is at the expense of your time freedom and in many cases there is little to no business return.
