How much of your week went into building a treatment plan from scratch for a patient with a really common condition? Dr. Jordan Robertson, a naturopathic doctor and the founder of The Confident Clinician, has some thoughts about that.

Jordan’s view is that patients aren’t asking for a one-of-a-kind protocol. They’re asking to get better. When something works for most people with a condition, that’s where you start. Individualizing care means helping the patient fit that plan into their actual life. Treating every plan like a custom build is one of the biggest drains on a practitioner’s week.

In this episode, Jordan and I talk about why the support you keep putting off is the thing that gets you busy. We also get into the Netflix test for boundaries and how she built a clinic that ran without her for three years.

  • Why “every patient is unique” is eating your week, and what individualized care actually looks like
  • The horse race way to think about clinical decisions (and why we keep betting on Henrietta)
  • Why waiting until you’re busy to invest in support keeps you from getting busy
  • The Netflix test for setting clear boundaries around hours, emails and cancellations from the very first appointment
  • How Jordan built a clinic that ran without her for three years, and why she sold it while it was still thriving
