On this episode of The splose sessions: A Healthcare podcast, we host Tom Astley, a leading UK sports physiotherapist, entrepreneur, and the clinical director and owner of TA Physiotherapy in London.
Tom shares his journey of building a successful private practice while working with elite athletes across multiple sports, including British Bobsleigh and England Lacrosse.
Tune into episode 3 now where we discuss the challenges of balancing high-performance sports with scaling a business, stressing the need for a brilliant team and strong systems (like outsourcing administrative tasks). Tom credits the clinic's growth largely to an unbeatable word-of-mouth reputation.
Looking ahead, Tom argues that AI will be a significant boost for administrative efficiency and diagnostics, ultimately giving therapists more time for quality client care, but that it will not replace the practitioner.
This is a must-listen for any healthcare professional interested in building a successful independent practice and leveraging technology for growth.
