Patient Burnout Is Growing in Every Practice — And Most Physicians Don't See It Coming
Patient burnout isn't just a patient problem — it's a practice culture problem. And it spreads quietly through overworked, under-appreciated medical offices until one day the reviews, the cancellations, and the empty schedule tell a story nobody wanted to read. In this solo episode, Michael Tetreault makes the case that every patient is a customer, every customer has a choice, and the practices that thrive are the ones that never forget which side of that equation they're on.

How to Get Published — Scientific Writing, Research, and Academic Medicine with Dr. Jia Ng, Founder of PublishedMD
Publishing research isn't just for academics — it builds credibility, advances your career, and contributes to the science your peers rely on. But most clinicians were never taught how to do it, and the process feels overwhelming from the outside. Dr. Jia Ng is a board-certified nephrologist, federally-funded researcher, and founder of PublishedMD consulting. She specializes in guiding clinicians through scientific writing — from avoiding the most common publishing mistakes to balancing research with clinical work to navigating motherhood in medicine and academia.

Patient Acquisition in a Consumer-Driven Healthcare Era — with Kyle Ryan, CTO of Tebra
Patients today shop for healthcare the same way they shop for everything else — with reviews, online research, and zero tolerance for a frustrating digital experience. The practices that understand this are growing. The ones that don't are losing patients to competitors they've never heard of. Kyle Ryan, Chief Technology Officer at Tebra, joins Michael Tetreault to unpack the evolving dynamics of patient acquisition in a consumer-driven healthcare era — what's shifting, why it matters, and what independent practices can do right now to keep up. 🌐 tebra.com 🌐 ConciergeMedicineToday.net · Apple Podcasts · Spotify 🌐 ConciergeMedicineToday.org ✅ Each episode of the DocPreneur Leadership Podcast explores the business and leadership side of medicine through candid conversations with physicians, healthcare executives, attorneys, practice management experts, and industry innovators — hosted by Michael Tetreault, Editor-in-Chief of Concierge Medicine Today. 🌐 ConciergeMedicineToday.com If you're building, growing, or rethinking a concierge or membership-based practice, this is the conversation you didn't know you needed.

When physicians only listen to voices that agree with them, everyone loses — especially the colleagues quietly struggling on the other side of it.
The echo chamber effect isn't unique to social media — it shows up in medical communities, physician groups, and hospital cultures where dissenting voices get dismissed and peer-to-peer bullying goes unchallenged because nobody wants to be the one to name it. 🌐ConciergeMedicineToday.org In this solo episode, Michael Tetreault addresses the tunnel vision that forms when harmonious groups stop exposing themselves to outside perspectives — and makes a direct appeal for more kindness among physicians, because we rarely know what a colleague is carrying beneath the surface. 🌐ConciergeMedicineToday.net · Apple Podcasts · Spotify ✅ Each episode of the DocPreneur Leadership Podcast explores the business and leadership side of medicine through candid conversations with physicians, healthcare executives, attorneys, practice management experts, and industry innovators — hosted by Michael Tetreault, Editor-in-Chief of Concierge Medicine Today. 🌐 ConciergeMedicineToday.com If you're building, growing, or rethinking a concierge or membership-based practice, this is the conversation you didn't know you needed.

The Tiny Details That Generate Word of Mouth — Patient Referrals and the Remarkable Moments Most Practices Miss
Word of mouth doesn't happen because you asked for it — it happens because a patient experienced something they couldn't help but tell someone about. And more often than not, it wasn't the clinical outcome that made them talk. It was a small, seemingly insignificant moment between a staff member and a patient that nobody planned for. In this solo episode, Michael Tetreault breaks down why getting the tiny details right is the most underrated growth strategy in concierge medicine — and why it takes the whole team, not just the physician, to make those moments happen consistently. 🌐ConciergeMedicineToday.net · Apple Podcasts · Spotify 🌐ConciergeMedicineToday.org ✅ Each episode of the DocPreneur Leadership Podcast explores the business and leadership side of medicine through candid conversations with physicians, healthcare executives, attorneys, practice management experts, and industry innovators — hosted by Michael Tetreault, Editor-in-Chief of Concierge Medicine Today. 🌐 ConciergeMedicineToday.com If you're building, growing, or rethinking a concierge or membership-based practice, this is the conversation you didn't know you needed.

Hospitable Healthcare — What If Physicians Served Patients the Way Hotels Serve Guests? with Peter Yesawich, PhD
Most people can immediately recall a five-star hotel experience and a frustrating doctor's office visit. The gap between those two experiences isn't accidental — and it doesn't have to exist. Peter Yesawich, PhD, co-author of Hospitable Healthcare: Just What the Patient Ordered, joins Michael Tetreault to explore what healthcare would look like if providers borrowed the service philosophy of the world's best hospitality organizations — and why concierge medicine is already closer to that vision than any other model in medicine.

The Medical Matchmaker — Finding Practices Where Physicians Actually Want to Show Up with Dr. Lara Hochman
Most physicians know something is wrong with where they're working long before they do anything about it. Dr. Lara Hochman built Happy Day Health to help them do something about it faster — matching doctors with well-run, physician-owned private practices where autonomy, purpose, and patient relationships come first. In this conversation, Dr. Hochman and Michael Tetreault discuss what burnout actually looks like from the inside, why so many physicians stay in the wrong position too long, and what the right practice fit can do for a career — and a life.
