On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes sits down with Dr. Blake Hamblin, a 2026 Golden Rhino Award co-winner, to discuss building a thriving out-of-network practice in Houston. Blake shares how his experience as a college quarterback shaped his discipline and leadership, and how he grew a $1.2 million practice through expanded clinical services, patient retention, and targeted marketing.
They explore the numbers behind patient acquisition, his approach to practice mergers, and why systems must evolve as the business grows. Blake also explains how involving the team in testing new processes creates stronger ownership and accountability. His advice for practice owners centers on defining why they want to grow, focusing on a few priorities at a time, and staying flexible as new opportunities emerge.
