Success Leaves Clues: Virtual Practice & Groups

Success Leaves Clues: Virtual Practice & Groups

Author: Functional Forum February 15, 2023 Duration: 33:17

Dr. Patricia Restrepo is a Practice Accelerator alumna who joins the podcast to share her experience growing two businesses with the help of the Accelerator program.

After being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at 14 years old, Dr. Restrepo pursued an education and career that allowed her to research natural solutions for weight management and diabetes. She was able to reverse her own diabetes, and now helps patients with similar diagnoses. Both of her businesses, one in Miami and the other in Mexico, help patients manage weight loss and diabetes.

 Dr. Restrepo used what she learned in the Practice Accelerator program to establish a business model that allows her to allocate time according to her personal lifestyle goals: 20% of her time is spent in clinic with patients (including groups), 40% is spent on remote consultations, and 40% is spent on her own continuing education and developing medical education for her patient community.

 Listen to this full episode from the Success Leaves Clues Series to learn about:

  • ·       The key elements that allowed her businesses to run efficiently
  • ·       How the Practice Accelerator program helped her build a patient database
  • ·       The importance of recording patient education videos
  • ·       The aspects of the business can best be delegated
  • ·       And much more!
