    From 4 to 12 Doctors: Inside the Business of Concierge Medicine

    What does it take to grow a medical practice without turning patients into numbers? Dr. Gary Schaffel joins host Jason Bearden on the Real Biz Solution Podcast to share the business decisions behind a concierge medical practice that grew from four doctors to twelve in just three years. This conversation goes beyond medicine to explore leadership, patient experience, and the challenges of building a business around personalized care. Dr. Schaffel explains why he moved away from a volume-driven approach and built a practice focused on access, prevention, and stronger doctor–patient relationships. He also discusses growing through word of mouth, building the right team, and knowing when faster expansion could put quality at risk. The conversation also explores AI in healthcare—including how Dr. Schaffel already uses it for charting and research, where he sees opportunities to reduce administrative work, and why he believes human relationships will remain the difference-maker in patient care. Whether you’re a physician considering your own practice or an entrepreneur navigating growth, this episode offers a candid look at balancing service, leadership, and the willingness to take calculated risks. Can technology make healthcare more efficient without making it less personal? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    The Secret Weapon of Integrative Medicine | Dr. Karina Manali

    Dr. Karina Manali didn’t set out to become an entrepreneur—she set out to create a different kind of healthcare experience. In this episode of the Real Biz Solution Podcast, Jason Bearden sits down with Dr. Manali, founder of Chi Wellness, to explore how she built a practice that brings together Eastern medicine, Western medicine, functional medicine, lifestyle, nutrition, and whole-person care. They also get beneath the surface of the business itself—discussing operational bottlenecks, laboratory delays, data entry, patient experience, workflow challenges, and where automation and AI may or may not belong in healthcare. Dr. Manali also shares why she believes technology can be a powerful tool, but can never replace empathy, intuition, experience, and genuine human connection. This conversation is about more than medicine. It’s about building a business around purpose, staying focused on the people you serve, and recognizing that sometimes the best solution isn’t another tool—it’s a better approach.
