Ever had a therapist on your team get subpoenaed and panic?

As group practice owners, it’s not just about managing our own responsibilities—it’s also about supporting our therapists when they face daunting tasks like preparing to testify in court. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tracy Masiello to discuss how to help your team navigate the courtroom with confidence.
