Episode Description

Why are PTs so bad at keeping patients long-term? And why do most clinic owners burn out before they break through? Dr. Danny Matta returns to the show with real talk for rehab entrepreneurs who want more than just insurance-based care.

In this no-fluff conversation, Danny breaks down:

  • The #1 KPI every clinic owner should obsess over
  • Why most PTs sabotage evaluations without realizing it
  • How to shift from reactive rehab to proactive, lifestyle-based care
  • His honest story of scaling too fast — and almost losing it all
  • The power of asking patients what they really want next

This is for any PT who’s burned out, scaling up, or ready to stop making the same mistakes.
