1) The Quintessence of Sincerity and Congruence in Medicine
The first and foremost thing is aligning personal values with professional goals. You need to emphasize on identifying when values and actions misalign is critical. As those help to make essential changes that lead to a more rewarding and significant blend of personal and professional endeavors. Physicians should prioritize their authenticity to build meaningful connections with their patients.
Dr. Brittany Busse's journey through the medical system emphasizes the importance of being true to one's principles and aligning actions with personal values. Though she started with a passion for psychiatry, she found her true calling in surgery. Her own health complications made her reevaluate her priorities, leading to a more genuine and fulfilling practice. The lesson here is to recognize when our actions misalign with our values, allowing us to make necessary changes and achieve a more rewarding and meaningful professional and personal life.
2) The Potency of Synergy and Fellowship in Healthcare
Collaboration among medical professionals and between physicians and entrepreneurs is crucial in today's information-saturated environment. The importance of establishing a robust network of collaborators and community members to remain well-informed, delegate responsibilities, and deliver the finest care to patients must be underscored. The Health platforms like ViTel exemplifies this synergy, bringing collaborators together and spotlighting their innovations.
With information overload and limited time, working with other medical professionals and entrepreneurs can help create a robust network of collaborators and community members, leading to better-informed practitioners who can delegate responsibilities and deliver top-quality care to patients. ViTel Health's comprehensive platform exemplifies this synergy by spotlighting collaborators and their innovations to help create thriving physician practices. The lesson here is to establish a strong network of collaborators and community members to empower healthcare providers to deliver the best possible care to patients.
3) Revolutionizing Patient Care with Technological Advancements and Health Coaching
ViTel Health's methodology for enhancing patient care involves leveraging technology and health coaching to build stronger patient-physician connections. By integrating health coaches in a concierge medical practice, patient trust and communication were bolstered, resulting in superior health outcomes. The lesson here is to adopt innovative solutions and nurture strong relationships with patients to cultivate a more compassionate and effective care experience for all.
"We constructed an interoperable platform that dissolves healthcare silos, welcoming collaborators who excel and spotlighting them. We present them to the practices they can most impact. Building this network of collaborators, bridging the gap between physicians and physician offices, or between entrepreneurs and those aiming to assist physicians, paves the way for collective success." - Dr. Brittany Busse, ViTel Health
4) Harnessing Advanced Practice Providers for Improved Patient Care:
Dr. Busse and Sabrina Runbeck stress the importance of investing in Advanced Practice Providers and other medical staff to streamline patient care and enhance communication. By training these individuals to deliver educational material and assessments, healthcare providers can address societal barriers and psychological profiles, leading to more personalized patient interactions. This support structure enables physicians to focus on the most pressing issues during their limited patient consultations. The lesson here is to empower intermediate-level support staff to streamline patient care and enable healthcare providers to focus on critical aspects of patients' needs.
5) Cultivating Deeper Relationships for Elevated Conversion Rates:
Physicians should prioritize forming deep relationships with strategic partners and referral sources in healthcare. These alliances yield higher conversion rates and a higher lifetime value compared to alternative marketing approaches. By making meaningful connections with fellow healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs can develop a solid network of referral partners and champions, benefiting both their organization and patient care. The lesson here is to prioritize forming lasting relationships with strategic partners and referral sources, as these connections can lead to substantial growth and elevated conversion rates in the long run.
"Strategic partnership and referral partners result in 30% higher conversion than any other method. Walton Business School even indicated a 25% higher lifetime value compared to other approaches. For me, the focus has been on learning how to become the best strategic partners, reaching out to the right people, and turning those connections into champions." - Sabrina Runbeck, MPH, MHS, PA-C, host of “Provider’s Edge”
6) Perpetual Learning and Personal Advancement in Healthcare:
Continuous learning and personal development are critical for healthcare professionals. Physicians should seek opportunities for expansion and remain receptive to novel ideas and tactics for both professional and personal achievements. Dr. Busse emphasizes the importance of continuous learning and personal development among healthcare professionals. Finding one's genuine voice and seizing growth opportunities can foster better collaboration and enhance the ability to serve patients effectively. ViTel Health provides customized tools and communities to help healthcare providers discover the most suitable methods for them, nurturing a flexible and supportive atmosphere. The lesson here is to embrace lifelong learning and personal growth to remain adaptable and inventive in the ever-evolving healthcare environment, seeking opportunities for expansion and remaining receptive to novel ideas and tactics for both professional and personal success.

Healthcare Entrepreneurs!
I can help you gain visibility and credibility in the right circles so you can accelerate your mission and profitability!
After overcoming burnout working in surgery, I went back to my roots in neuroscience and public health. I learned the importance of building key human relationships with my team throughout our organization.
While helping healthcare executives and entrepreneurs to get out of the day-to-day operation of their practice, I realized I needed more visibility and more connections to reach my ideal clients.
Once I set out to be highly visible in the right circles, I was able to leverage my network of strategic partners to convert clients 5x higher than any other marketing channel I had tried previously.
Now I help healthcare change-makers to accelerate their impact and increase profitability by gaining visibility and credibility with the right strategic partners.
My clients no longer worry about where their next client is coming from, the need to plan additional budget for ads spending, or losing the ability to connect with others because their social media account is shut down.
If you want to share your social mission with the world and gain pivotal supporters that become loyal clients... then you are in the right place, with the right consultant who is also a recovered clinician.
