The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast

Great business people and I’d now argue, great doctors know that “you just need to be a superstar in your own backyard …” and you accomplish that by focusing on your strengths and finding people who want to come along for the ride. Bear in mind though, not everyone will want to join you along the journey. If too many people do … that’s actually, when you raise the fare and see who still believes in your mission and wants to come along for the ride!   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

Today we jump across the pond to England to meet up and talk with Gintare Balseviciute.   Growing up in Lithuania, Gintare remembers always having access to “real” food – not the processed stuff that fills much of our grocery stores today. She was raised to cook from scratch with whole foods and ingredients. The fruits, vegetables and meat on her table all came from the local farmers; it was all “organic” by today’s definition.   Source: https://www.ketogenic-wellness.com/   ​When Gintare moved to London, she noticed that much of the food in the grocery store came in boxes and cans, or vacuum sealed with labels reading “fat-free”, “low-fat”, “reduced sugar”, etc. Not long after she began eating the foods that were supposed to be “healthy” for you, she began gaining weight, without realizing what she was doing wrong.   Gintare understands that eating real food isn’t always convenient, that life gets busy, and that no one is perfect, including herself. She recognizes that eating healthier takes a little longer at first, but that there are ways to fit healthier eating habits into even the busiest of lifestyles.   In this podcast episode we unpack the importance of finding balance as a busy working woman, learning to shop right when at the grocery store and how to be creative with our cooking and snacks when living with Hypothyroidism.   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

"Our goal is to empower the next generation of parents to take ownership of their family's health. We want to help new parents feel confident and capable when taking on the job of managing the health of their entire family, and build a platform that will ease the minds of new parents everywhere." ~Estelle Giraud, the Co-Founder and CEO at Trellis Health.    Our special guest today is Estelle Giraud, the Co-Founder and CEO at Trellis Health.    In today's podcast, we unpack: Curated, educational tools that provide guidance and confidence as mothers and families navigate their maternal health journey. Venture Capital Challenges Among Female Entrepreneurs In Healthcare Protecting Private Patient Information Challenges Faced By Female Entreprenuers Taking back personal agency in pre and postnatal healthcare   "I'm a founder passionate about human health and I'm also a new mother," said Estelle. "My experience was pretty intense but not uncommon; including IVF, an emergency C-section, prenatal hypertension, postpartum preeclampsia and medication incompatibilities. I had to monitor my blood pressure multiple times a day, track symptoms, maintain a complex medication schedule, stay on top of a calendar full of appointments and reminders, and had a multitude of genetic and blood tests. There were so many apps and tools out there that would tell me the size of my baby, what carrier was best, or what milestones they were reaching in utero, but there was nothing to really help me manage my own health. And while my care team was fantastic - my information was so siloed it created inevitable gaps in my care. I've moved several times and seen many different physicians both before and during my pregnancy, and the lack of continuity left me feeling anxious and frustrated. I felt I had to stay on top of my own care and information or it would slip through the cracks... my baby and I would slip through the cracks."   Trellis Health is a one stop shop for navigating pregnancy and beginning of life care. When starting or growing a family, navigating the siloed complexities of necessary medical care adds stress and frustration to a new parent's already full plate. Trellis Health is here to create lasting change and reframe the way pregnant moms take control of their care. As a new mother herself, Estelle is especially focused on personalizing medical care to the individual and ensuring no new mothers (or babies!) slip through the cracks.   "I spoke with dozens of women, and discovered that my experiences were not unique; quite the opposite," notes Estelle. "Frustration, concerns around maternal health risks, missed information leading to avoidable mistakes, it was all a common burden of responsibility for these women. I believe we can fill some of these gaps and ease the "pregnancy health load" with a secure, private health data system and some very simple digital tools that allow your health data to work for you in a meaningful way. This is one of the most important health journeys of your life, building a human. We have to do a better job at supporting women through this."   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

It really could be any number of things. But it is important that you identify them. We find Concierge Medicine Doctors are better suited medical offices to be in a position personally, emotionally and professionally to identify these 'combustion points' [for Patients] and do something right away in the practice to improve the patient experience sooner rather than later.   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

According to ScribeAmerica, 'A Medical Scribe is essentially a personal assistant to the physician; performing documentation in the EHR, gathering information for the patient's visit, and partnering with the physician to deliver the pinnacle of efficient patient care.'   Great Concierge Doctors learn to focus daily, on only doing what only they can do. And, they've empowered those they work with to do the same.   Today we want to talk about your strengths and weaknesses as a Physician-leader. More importantly, why delegating your weakness and empowering your team to do what they are good at allows you to focus on precisely what you are good at.   Case in point. The Medical Scribe.   What is a Medical Scribe?   According to ScribeAmerica, 'A Medical Scribe is a revolutionary concept in modern medicine.  Traditionally, a physician's job has been focusing solely on direct patient contact and care.  However, the advent of the Electronic Health Record (EHR) created an overload of documentation and clerical responsibilities that slows physicians down and pulls them away from actual patient care. To relieve the documentation overload, physicians across the country are turning to Medical Scribe services.'   RESOURCES MENTIONED   https://www.scribeamerica.com/what-is-a-medical-scribe/ https://conciergemedicineforum.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_scribe   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.

I've often wondered why America's Best Places to Work rarely ever includes a Doctor's office, a hospital or even an urgent care?   We'd all want to lean on these successful medical environments in our time of need, medical curiosity or urgent care matters, right?   I'm of the persuasion to believe as many Patients do that the staff working inside a medical practice reflect the values, charisma and leadership of the Physician or group of Physicians working in the practice.   Meaning, if the staff is unhappy, typically that also means the person in charge, who is often the Physician is also unhappy.   And, we don't need to cover the litany of reasons why a Physician might be unhappy. There are plenty of medical journal articles and blogs that do that already.   What if Patient satisfaction was dependent on employee satisfaction?   © Concierge Medicine Today, LLC.
