20/20 Money Episode # 178 – Scheduling to profitability with Dr. Gina Wesley, OD

April 4, 2022

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is Dr. Gina Wesley, OD. Gina joins me for another conversation around the importance of being tuned into the scheduling metrics of your practice and how important it is to your overall profitability. We talk about the metrics she uses to evaluate and determine success, strategies her team uses to fill up the schedule, how she “triages” candidates to backfill the schedule, how she tracks all of this in her HER, and the important benefit that online scheduling plays in the flow of her schedule.

As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today’s conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter and you can also set up a 20-30min Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we help ODs around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions or check out any number of additional free resources like our eBooks, blog posts, and on-demand webinars.

And with that introduction, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Dr. Gina Wesley.
