b"Ep. 168: Alex (@aebridgeman) is joined by Daniel Hudspeth (@danielhudspeth).\\n\\nMy guest today, Daniel Hudspeth, is the CEO of Discover Health, a concierge medical practice business with locations in California, Boston, and soon to be Seattle. During his search Daniel did extensive research on private pay healthcare and eventually developed a thesis to acquire multiple concierge practices across the country.\\nWe talk about this pivot during his search, what the concierge model looks like for patients and doctors, why it\\u2019s an attractive business as an investor and operator, and what growth could look like over the coming years. Given my mom is a family physician, this episode felt close to home and I enjoyed the chance to connect with an entrepreneur like Daniel who\\u2019s looking to build a better model in patient healthcare.\\nListen weekly and follow the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Breaker, and TuneIn.\\xa0\\nLearn more about Alex and Think Like an Owner at https://tlaopodcast.com/\\n\\nLinks:\\nDiscover Health\\nConcierge Medicine Today\\nROAMD\\nThe Predictive Index\\nFounders Podcast - Yvon Chouinard: Patagonia's Founding Principles\\nLet My People Go Surfing by Yvon Chouinard\\nTopics:\\n(00:00:00) - Intro\\n(00:03:23) - Daniel\\u2019s Search Journey\\n(00:14:31) - Investor hesitations force the Search to go longer\\n(00:17:28) - Recruiting Doctors to the Organization\\n(00:25:57) - Churn dynamics\\n(00:29:47) - Staffing requirements\\n(00:31:45) - Establishing a playbook for how these businesses are run\\n(00:35:18) - Concierge-centric Podcasts\\n(00:37:23) - Defining Executive roles\\n(00:40:09) - How the CEO role has changed\\n(00:43:06) - Utilizing peer networks\\n(00:46:05) - Tools for hiring and recruiting\\n(00:50:13) - What strongly held belief have you changed your mind on?\\n(00:52:47) - What\\u2019s the best business you\\u2019ve ever seen?"
