The Private Practice Survival Guide Is Back - And It's Better Than Ever

Host Brandon Seigel brings fresh global experience and practical frameworks to help private practice owners think like business leaders, tackle modern challenges, and build resilient, thriving practices.

After a two-and-a-half-year hiatus, the Private Practice Survival Guide podcast is back, and host Brandon Seigel is returning with more fire, more strategy, and a bigger vision than ever. If you have been navigating the complexities of running a private practice in today's healthcare landscape, this is exactly the kind of resource you need in your corner.

What's New?

The biggest shift is in frequency and format. The show is moving from one episode per month to two episodes per week. Each week you will get a full-length Learning Strategy episode packed with real-world case studies, actionable frameworks, and deep dives into the business of healthcare, plus a shorter Quick Tip episode designed for busy practitioners on the go.

Brandon spent the past two-and-a-half years doing more than taking a break. He has been supporting private practices internationally, hosting three annual conferences, launching workshops, and expanding his reach globally. That experience is now being poured directly into this podcast.

Why Private Practices Are Struggling More Than Ever

If your practice has felt the strain since 2023, you are not alone. The American Medical Association has documented the mounting pressure on independent practices from staffing shortages, rising overhead, and shifting patient expectations. The challenges have evolved well beyond the pandemic, and the business fundamentals that worked five years ago often no longer apply today.

The good news? These are solvable problems. And that is exactly what the updated podcast aims to address, helping you think not just like a clinician, but like a business owner. Too many practices are so focused on keeping up with healthcare trends that they lose sight of the business trends that actually determine whether they survive or thrive.

What You Can Expect Each Week

Every episode will tackle a different theme: HR, operations, leadership, finance, and everything in between. The goal is to help you build an ecosystem of knowledge so that when challenges arise, whether it is an unexpected insurance payment delay or a staffing crisis, you will have a strategy ready.

This podcast is not about one-size-fits-all advice. It is about unlocking your perspective and co-creating strategies that fit your practice. Learn more and connect with the WWMP community at wellnessworksmp.com.
