The Misdiagnosed Practice

Tim Carger

Being brilliant at medicine and building a brilliant business are two different skills. Each week, Tim Carger from Abel Practice, walks into a real medical practice to find the gap between them.

Drawing on 20 years inside medicine, across hundreds of medical practices, hospital departments and medical businesses, Tim uncovers what's really costing that practice — revenue, reputation, sanity, and patients — and what he'd fix first if it were his own client.

No compliance theory. No generic theories. Just the real diagnosis.

The Doctor Was Brilliant. I Almost Left Before I Met Him.

One of the best specialists I've come across, genuinely excellent, empathetic, gave me 45 minutes and complete clarity. And I nearly walked out before I ever met him. In this episode, I walk you through a real specialist practice; from the car park, to the front desk, to the waiting room — the 45 minutes before the consult that the specialist himself never sees. What most people would notice is a front desk that needs some polish. What I noticed is something much bigger: the most valuable asset in the entire building, quietly being devalued by the cheapest parts around it. If you've ever wondered why a brilliant clinician can still end up with an average online reputation, this episode is your answer. Curious how your own practice stacks up?
