WEBVTT

00:00:21.182 --> 00:00:23.704
okay all right come this way good this

00:00:23.724 --> 00:00:25.123
is literally us testing this okay awesome

00:00:26.044 --> 00:00:27.946
I've been doing podcasting and media and

00:00:28.025 --> 00:00:29.887
communications and physical therapy for a

00:00:29.946 --> 00:00:31.408
decade, which makes me feel old.

00:00:31.428 --> 00:00:33.670
I wear ridiculous outfits on day one of

00:00:33.689 --> 00:00:34.631
CSM every year.

00:00:35.411 --> 00:00:36.432
This is the first time we're actually

00:00:36.453 --> 00:00:38.674
going live, so we're testing this.

00:00:39.134 --> 00:00:39.314
U.S.

00:00:39.354 --> 00:00:41.237
Physical Therapy, ballpark it for me.

00:00:41.737 --> 00:00:43.639
How many partners do you have in the

00:00:43.738 --> 00:00:44.539
United States?

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:46.261
We've got about a hundred and thirty five

00:00:46.301 --> 00:00:48.523
partners across forty four states.

00:00:48.703 --> 00:00:48.902
Wow.

00:00:49.384 --> 00:00:53.826
So we've got a good footprint across the

00:00:53.887 --> 00:00:54.228
U.S.

00:00:54.648 --> 00:00:57.450
And the need here today, who do you,

00:00:57.729 --> 00:00:58.570
if you had a tail,

00:00:59.151 --> 00:01:00.631
who's it wagging when they walk up?

00:01:00.692 --> 00:01:01.453
Is it new grads?

00:01:01.493 --> 00:01:02.814
Is it seasoned professionals?

00:01:03.014 --> 00:01:04.454
Who are people looking to relocate?

00:01:04.474 --> 00:01:05.234
What are you looking for?

00:01:05.656 --> 00:01:07.837
We're looking for new grads mostly.

00:01:08.837 --> 00:01:10.778
But I also think the biggest thing for

00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:11.719
us too as U.S.

00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:13.400
Physical Therapy is not many people know

00:01:13.441 --> 00:01:13.902
about us.

00:01:14.281 --> 00:01:16.442
So employee branding, right?

00:01:16.462 --> 00:01:17.603
Getting our name out there,

00:01:17.664 --> 00:01:18.765
getting the visibility out.

00:01:19.405 --> 00:01:20.465
is really important to me.

00:01:20.506 --> 00:01:22.147
So when we do go to campus and

00:01:22.186 --> 00:01:23.849
we start trying to interact with these new

00:01:23.888 --> 00:01:25.250
grads, they know who we are.

00:01:25.650 --> 00:01:26.510
Okay, so why?

00:01:26.671 --> 00:01:27.590
Why is that?

00:01:27.631 --> 00:01:31.414
Because you guys make it a point to,

00:01:31.914 --> 00:01:34.555
when organizations join your group,

00:01:34.837 --> 00:01:37.397
they retain their identity, I guess.

00:01:37.457 --> 00:01:40.521
So people have seen, interacted with,

00:01:41.581 --> 00:01:42.864
US physical therapy clinics,

00:01:43.144 --> 00:01:43.765
but they don't know it.

00:01:43.784 --> 00:01:44.766
They don't know it, nope.

00:01:45.087 --> 00:01:46.287
And that's on purpose, right?

00:01:46.328 --> 00:01:47.909
So when we acquire a partner,

00:01:48.870 --> 00:01:53.016
we tell them that they're gonna remain

00:01:54.197 --> 00:01:56.900
their own branding in terms of being

00:01:57.281 --> 00:01:58.823
autonomous from USPH.

00:01:59.543 --> 00:02:00.924
And I feel like that is a really

00:02:00.965 --> 00:02:03.546
great thing about USPH and that's what

00:02:03.566 --> 00:02:04.468
makes us so special.

00:02:04.987 --> 00:02:07.189
But there's also a need for people to

00:02:07.230 --> 00:02:10.752
know who USPH is, right?

00:02:10.772 --> 00:02:11.552
Okay, so who is USPH?

00:02:11.592 --> 00:02:13.074
So USPH is really the national support

00:02:13.114 --> 00:02:14.074
behind these clinics.

00:02:14.675 --> 00:02:19.860
So we help them operate and so they

00:02:19.900 --> 00:02:22.140
can focus on treating patients,

00:02:22.342 --> 00:02:24.263
which is the number one most important

00:02:24.282 --> 00:02:24.562
thing.

00:02:24.682 --> 00:02:28.747
USPH is run by physical therapists who

00:02:28.787 --> 00:02:31.348
have turned, you know,

00:02:31.528 --> 00:02:33.090
to the business side and operational side

00:02:33.110 --> 00:02:33.531
of things.

00:02:34.290 --> 00:02:36.492
But, you know,

00:02:36.513 --> 00:02:37.713
so we come in and try to help

00:02:37.774 --> 00:02:39.836
our partners, you know,

00:02:40.475 --> 00:02:42.076
financially, administratively,

00:02:42.197 --> 00:02:42.757
operationally.

00:02:42.776 --> 00:02:44.157
The things that aren't on the syllabus

00:02:44.198 --> 00:02:45.198
when you're in PT school,

00:02:45.217 --> 00:02:46.278
that all of a sudden when you open

00:02:46.318 --> 00:02:48.098
a clinic, good, bad, or otherwise,

00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:49.280
are now on the menu.

00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:49.659
Right.

00:02:49.819 --> 00:02:51.100
They don't want to do payroll.

00:02:51.140 --> 00:02:52.221
They don't want to do benefits.

00:02:52.260 --> 00:02:53.222
And that's where we come in.

00:02:53.361 --> 00:02:55.143
And we also have a huge recruiting

00:02:55.163 --> 00:02:55.562
support.

00:02:56.043 --> 00:02:57.242
And so that's what we are.

00:02:57.984 --> 00:02:59.563
And so it's really important, though,

00:02:59.745 --> 00:03:01.685
that we are part of this game now,

00:03:02.006 --> 00:03:04.766
coming to CSM and coming to CSM as

00:03:04.847 --> 00:03:05.387
USPH.

00:03:05.426 --> 00:03:07.348
This is our second year doing this.

00:03:07.647 --> 00:03:07.848
Yeah.

00:03:07.867 --> 00:03:08.688
Pulling back the curtain.

00:03:08.729 --> 00:03:09.710
Pulling back the curtain.

00:03:09.729 --> 00:03:11.091
This is the person behind the curtain.

00:03:11.110 --> 00:03:11.752
Exactly.

00:03:11.792 --> 00:03:11.991
Yes.

00:03:12.032 --> 00:03:13.233
Not me, but yes.

00:03:13.453 --> 00:03:13.573
Well,

00:03:13.592 --> 00:03:15.055
you're part of a decent sized team here.

00:03:15.074 --> 00:03:15.194
We are.

00:03:15.754 --> 00:03:16.716
If you're on site,

00:03:16.776 --> 00:03:17.917
I feel like I'm doing play by play.

00:03:17.937 --> 00:03:18.737
We got the headsets on.

00:03:18.777 --> 00:03:19.579
If you're on site,

00:03:20.139 --> 00:03:21.719
we're at booth twelve forty four.

00:03:22.760 --> 00:03:24.323
Come because I'm probably going to turn

00:03:24.342 --> 00:03:26.183
you into a video or interview you.

00:03:26.204 --> 00:03:27.284
Absolutely.

00:03:27.324 --> 00:03:29.046
Talk to me about this doesn't seem like

00:03:29.067 --> 00:03:29.706
it makes any sense.

00:03:29.727 --> 00:03:30.687
Talk to me about dogs.

00:03:30.788 --> 00:03:31.269
Why is that?

00:03:31.308 --> 00:03:31.468
Why?

00:03:31.568 --> 00:03:32.090
Why is dogs?

00:03:32.210 --> 00:03:33.971
Why are dogs a thing here this year

00:03:34.211 --> 00:03:34.692
and last year?

00:03:34.972 --> 00:03:38.215
Well, I think it's because obviously, um,

00:03:38.254 --> 00:03:39.436
we know that there's some.

00:03:40.157 --> 00:03:42.498
Uh, therapy, stressful situations,

00:03:42.558 --> 00:03:43.901
stressful situations.

00:03:44.320 --> 00:03:45.222
It's a long day.

00:03:45.602 --> 00:03:46.703
People are on their feet,

00:03:46.923 --> 00:03:48.024
lots of shaking hands.

00:03:48.145 --> 00:03:49.566
And I don't know when you see a

00:03:49.626 --> 00:03:51.348
puppy or you see a dog,

00:03:51.367 --> 00:03:53.028
different part of your brain turns on.

00:03:53.288 --> 00:03:53.629
Yes.

00:03:54.250 --> 00:03:54.411
Um,

00:03:54.591 --> 00:03:56.431
and we saw how many people were there

00:03:56.472 --> 00:03:58.234
at the bar park last year when we

00:03:58.294 --> 00:03:59.074
had it in Houston.

00:03:59.215 --> 00:04:00.695
Solid name, by the way, Bark Park.

00:04:00.735 --> 00:04:01.316
Bark Park, yes.

00:04:01.336 --> 00:04:02.356
Somebody understood the assignment.

00:04:02.516 --> 00:04:03.197
Exactly.

00:04:04.198 --> 00:04:06.538
So it was a choice between Pickleball and

00:04:06.579 --> 00:04:08.800
Bark Park, and we went to Bark Park.

00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:09.860
Smart move.

00:04:09.901 --> 00:04:10.441
Exactly.

00:04:10.741 --> 00:04:11.861
So we're hoping to see a lot of

00:04:11.882 --> 00:04:12.921
people there today as well.

00:04:13.021 --> 00:04:14.423
I tried to take a dog home last

00:04:14.443 --> 00:04:14.582
year.

00:04:14.603 --> 00:04:15.824
I was told that wasn't what the Bark

00:04:15.843 --> 00:04:16.244
Park is.

00:04:16.324 --> 00:04:18.404
It's sort of like a rent for a

00:04:18.425 --> 00:04:19.886
ten, fifteen minute thing.

00:04:20.185 --> 00:04:23.146
it is but if you were seriously interested

00:04:23.206 --> 00:04:25.146
in adopting yeah they will help you do

00:04:25.166 --> 00:04:26.447
that as well i gotta be honest nicole

00:04:26.487 --> 00:04:28.127
i'm dumbfounded i keep myself alive i'm

00:04:28.148 --> 00:04:29.447
not gonna put that on i hear you

00:04:29.468 --> 00:04:32.148
i hear you so much responsibility so but

00:04:32.187 --> 00:04:34.228
you're also looking for organizations to

00:04:34.468 --> 00:04:36.408
who maybe are hearing the pain points that

00:04:36.428 --> 00:04:38.790
you're talking about a minute ago uh

00:04:38.889 --> 00:04:42.269
staffing recruiting uh payroll marketing

00:04:42.790 --> 00:04:44.430
so you look for organizations as well to

00:04:44.471 --> 00:04:46.170
join usph mike do i have the right

00:04:47.088 --> 00:04:48.408
In terms of organization.

00:04:48.427 --> 00:04:49.428
Like partners, like clinics.

00:04:49.449 --> 00:04:50.088
So we're like, hey,

00:04:50.129 --> 00:04:51.269
how do I do that?

00:04:51.329 --> 00:04:52.189
So that's a different door.

00:04:52.209 --> 00:04:53.369
So you're not just looking for people like

00:04:53.389 --> 00:04:53.848
clinicians.

00:04:53.869 --> 00:04:55.490
You're also looking for partner

00:04:55.509 --> 00:04:56.009
organizations.

00:04:56.029 --> 00:04:56.829
Exactly.

00:04:57.050 --> 00:04:57.410
Yes.

00:04:58.230 --> 00:05:01.750
I mean, I think the intent with CSM,

00:05:02.151 --> 00:05:03.992
maybe not so much.

00:05:04.031 --> 00:05:07.892
But I think our main focus here today

00:05:07.913 --> 00:05:08.533
is recruiting.

00:05:09.333 --> 00:05:09.872
And then we do...

00:05:10.432 --> 00:05:11.533
go to the other conferences,

00:05:11.613 --> 00:05:14.915
PPS and have people out there who are

00:05:14.975 --> 00:05:17.257
constantly looking for partners to join

00:05:17.458 --> 00:05:17.997
our network.

00:05:18.077 --> 00:05:18.298
Nice.

00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:18.658
All right.

00:05:18.718 --> 00:05:20.860
So we have a we have a tradition

00:05:20.899 --> 00:05:21.800
on the podcast.

00:05:22.180 --> 00:05:24.141
And I'm just let me see if actually

00:05:24.161 --> 00:05:26.124
someone says, yeah, my jacket rocks.

00:05:26.963 --> 00:05:27.745
Thanks, Dr. Walkie.

00:05:27.824 --> 00:05:28.245
You're right.

00:05:28.264 --> 00:05:28.946
Showing me up.

00:05:29.245 --> 00:05:30.266
Pulling back the curtain.

00:05:30.906 --> 00:05:32.088
So we know the audio is working.

00:05:32.588 --> 00:05:33.889
So we have a tradition on the show.

00:05:33.908 --> 00:05:35.009
It's called the parting shot.

00:05:36.757 --> 00:05:37.877
This is the Parting Shot.

00:05:38.437 --> 00:05:39.838
One last mic drop moment.

00:05:40.499 --> 00:05:41.300
No pressure.

00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:43.880
Just your legacy on the line.

00:05:43.901 --> 00:05:46.122
All right, Parting Shot,

00:05:46.442 --> 00:05:47.903
just your chance for a mic drop moment.

00:05:47.963 --> 00:05:50.163
Is there something as we start CSM all

00:05:50.264 --> 00:05:50.343
of...

00:05:51.254 --> 00:05:52.916
seven and a half minutes ago okay is

00:05:52.937 --> 00:05:54.137
there a theme that you and the team

00:05:54.158 --> 00:05:56.079
are going with i see grow grow like

00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:57.461
so what's your part your parting shot is

00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:58.783
your just last chance for a mic drop

00:05:58.802 --> 00:06:00.624
moment what do you want your parting shot

00:06:00.644 --> 00:06:03.307
to be grow with usph okay yes so

00:06:03.367 --> 00:06:05.108
we you know there's a lot of opportunity

00:06:05.149 --> 00:06:08.031
here um a lot of different opportunities i

00:06:08.052 --> 00:06:10.494
think that's what makes us so unique um

00:06:10.654 --> 00:06:13.937
and so we've got opportunities endless

00:06:14.598 --> 00:06:14.798
Awesome.

00:06:14.858 --> 00:06:15.639
Twelve forty four.

00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:16.300
If you're here,

00:06:17.300 --> 00:06:18.423
I'm probably going to shove a camera and

00:06:18.442 --> 00:06:19.504
a microphone in your face.

00:06:19.744 --> 00:06:20.764
You're not really going to get that

00:06:21.084 --> 00:06:21.406
anywhere.

00:06:21.706 --> 00:06:22.627
Plus, you got lip balm.

00:06:22.666 --> 00:06:23.387
And I got to be honest,

00:06:23.468 --> 00:06:24.428
sounds low value,

00:06:24.449 --> 00:06:27.031
but high reward and hand sanitizer.

00:06:27.172 --> 00:06:27.713
Keep your hands clean.

00:06:27.733 --> 00:06:29.334
You need hand sanitizer.

00:06:29.595 --> 00:06:30.475
Stay healthy.

00:06:31.661 --> 00:06:32.901
All right, live from CSM.

00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:34.562
I can't believe it took us a decade

00:06:34.581 --> 00:06:36.341
to actually stream live from this thing.

00:06:36.762 --> 00:06:38.262
And as far as I know,

00:06:38.362 --> 00:06:40.523
no one's done a live stream booth,

00:06:40.603 --> 00:06:41.723
and you are the first.

00:06:41.963 --> 00:06:42.564
I am the first.

00:06:42.603 --> 00:06:43.884
You are the very first interviewer the

00:06:43.923 --> 00:06:44.184
first time.

00:06:44.204 --> 00:06:44.504
I love it.

00:06:45.004 --> 00:06:46.805
And I haven't been mocked for having a

00:06:46.845 --> 00:06:47.704
bow tie just yet,

00:06:47.785 --> 00:06:49.285
but first day of CSM for me is

00:06:49.324 --> 00:06:50.764
always a ridiculous outfit day.

00:06:50.824 --> 00:06:51.906
So more,

00:06:52.045 --> 00:06:53.526
a lot more for the next three days

00:06:53.565 --> 00:06:54.685
here from the Super Bowl of Physical

00:06:54.706 --> 00:06:55.425
Therapy in Anaheim,

00:06:55.466 --> 00:06:57.286
California at APTA CSM.

00:06:58.651 --> 00:06:59.752
That's it for this one,

00:06:59.992 --> 00:07:01.653
but we're just getting warmed up.

00:07:02.132 --> 00:07:04.052
Smash follow, send it to a friend,

00:07:04.273 --> 00:07:05.913
or crank up the next episode.

00:07:06.434 --> 00:07:07.374

And legally, none of this was advice.

00:07:17.216 --> 00:07:18.956
It's for entertainment purposes only.

00:07:18.995 --> 00:07:19.555
Bullshit!

00:07:20.615 --> 00:07:21.216
See, Keith?

00:07:21.416 --> 00:07:22.476
We read the script.

00:07:22.757 --> 00:07:23.416
Happy now?
