You’re burned out, you’re tired of seeing too many patients, you want a higher salary, and you don’t feel you’re providing quality care to your patients. You’ve thought about starting your practice for a while.
You’re thinking it might be in your future plans, but for whatever reason, you haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Why not? You’re likely telling yourself one or more of these things… and they don’t have to get in your way.
The current reality: many physical therapists are burned out, stressed out, and unhappy in their staff PT jobs.
For some of us, this starts as early as clinical rotations in physical therapy school. For some, it starts in our first job after graduation. For others, the disappointment, disillusionment, and resentment builds over time.
he how-to is always appealing. It’s a logical first step. We both started out by literally Googling “how to start a PT practice.” We knew how to be PTs...but we wanted to know how to work for ourselves. Starting without a “how-to” manual is overwhelming.
So we focused on the how-to. What system would we use for documentation? Would we take insurance? Where would we be located? What would our logos look like? How would we take payments? What sort of liability insurance did we need? What was the best treatment table? How would we build a website? How would we market? How much equipment would we need to buy?
