This is a YouTube video titled "Frustrations of Managing a Medical Practice" (uploaded 2023-09-30T14:00:20Z). The excerpt is a multi-speaker recorded discussion in which a medical practitioner (SPEAKER A) describes staffing and practice-management challenges: reducing clinical hours, closing the practice to new patients, completing scheduled surgeries over nine months, and financial concerns. SPEAKER B reacts and narrates parts of the sequence, and SPEAKER C closes with a promotional announcement for the Business of Orthobiologics event in Dallas and a sign-up URL.
The joke is, is like, I, so I talked to my friend. He's like, well, you have to have diagnosis. I was like, well, I can't do that. That's not going to work out.
So yeah, what happened? So, okay, so we leave, we do the mic drop, we're out. We're going to go sell flip-flops.
Yeah. Yes. So my office staff who I had hired previously and then joined the hospital, they all got together and they were like, oh boy, this is bad. And they came up with a plan for me to work. And they said, hey, we have a plan. How does this sound? How about you just work 2 half days in the morning, just patients, 2 half days in the morning. And we know you have some surgeries scheduled for the next 6 weeks, and then don't schedule any more surgeries. Close your practice to new patients. Don't take any new patients. And then let's just see how this goes. I was like, ooh, 1 day of surgery, 2 half days in the morning. I could do that. Okay, I'll say yes. And so I did that, um, and I was like, this is crazy, I'm gonna go broke, I, I, whatever, I don't care, we can at least do this and at least serve my patients and see how this goes. And I did that for 9 months. Um, I had my, my practice was closed, I did not see any patients. Um, I finished out my surgeries and Then I kept waiting for the administration to be like, oh hey, excuse me, um, we've noticed that your revenue has dropped, uh, is everything okay? And nothing happened.
