On the surface, it may seem like you need hundreds of thousands in capital to catch up to your competitors. Perhaps they have more space, newer equipment, more employees, more marketing and advertising dollars, etc.
Sure, you could spend money on a new building, fancier equipment, and flashy advertising… but what makes you proud to be a physical therapy provider? The answer is likely to help your patients heal and regain their quality of life.
Material items will come with proper planning. The focus right now should be enhancing your patient care. Your patients should experience five star service and better outcomes in your practice. If your competition also provides quality care, you may consider:
All of these factors contribute to a better experience for your patients, and costs next to nothing!
One of the best ways to outshine your competition is by providing services that your patient population needs, that others don’t provide. Consider becoming an expert in a specialty that is underserved in your area. For example: women’s health, sports medicine or balance disorders. There are so many educational opportunities and training courses available for you to master a specialty and become the expert in your community.
For example, if you became an expert in balance and vestibular therapy, you would be able to market your business as the best option for these patients. This is likely an underserved patient population in your community, so physicians and other physical therapists will be thrilled to refer those patients to you.
With this new addition of services, you’ll gain higher patient retention and satisfaction, more new patient evals, increased revenue, and so much more. Over time you’ll be able to hire more employees, expand your space, purchase new equipment and ultimately build the business you’ve always dreamed of.
Physical therapy practice owners who have added balance to their existing business have seen these benefits and now have bragging rights in their communities over major PT corporations and even hospitals. They’re proud to be experts in balance, and providing better patient care than their competition.
