Business coach ยท Health and allied health

Great clinicians
deserve great businesses.

Coaching for owners of clinics, practices and health and wellbeing businesses, including physiotherapy, veterinary, cosmetic and skin clinics, fitness and pilates studios, and medical supply.

Where practices get stuck

  • The owner is the busiest clinician and has no time to lead
  • Diaries are full but profit per hour stays flat
  • Patients complete one course of care and never return
  • Hiring and keeping good clinicians is a constant fight
  • Marketing that brings enquiries but not the right patients

What we work on

  • A clear position that makes your practice the obvious choice
  • Pricing, packages and treatment plans patients value
  • Retention and rebooking systems that build lifetime value
  • Team structure, culture and leadership beyond the owner
  • AI for bookings, reminders and admin to free clinical time

What health owners say

"Relevant, detailed, genuine motivation and interest."

Simon Keepa, Physio Action

"With his background, I don't think the ROW branding would be nearly as strong without his input. He was just brilliant."

Sarah McGuinness, Revolutionaries of Wellbeing

"He's been a great help with bouncing ideas around. Excited to dive deeper into this all next year."

Chelsea Kawana, Pilates FIT

Practice coaching: questions answered

Do you give clinical or regulatory advice?

No. Coaching covers the business side: strategy, marketing, sales, team and operations. Clinical and regulatory questions stay with your professional body and advisers.

How can I grow without working more hours?

Usually through better pricing, retention, rebooking and a team that can carry more of the load. We find which lever matters most in your practice first.

Is coaching co-funding available?

Possibly. Simple-Growth offers services that are registered with the Management Capability Development Fund. Funding is decided by your Regional Business Partner Growth Advisor and is not guaranteed.

Spend more time leading, less time firefighting.
