    104. She's Walked Alongside Hundreds of Family Practices: Here's What's Working

    06/30/2026 | 47 mins.
    Dr. Matt Hill welcomes Megan Warkentien from The Pediatric Experience (PX), who supports hundreds of offices. They outline five “base camps” chiropractors move through to grow a pediatric/family practice: (1) clinical certainty and strong communication that chiropractic is enough; (2) integrating systems in layers based on the most patient-impactful priorities; (3) momentum and mindset; (4) leadership and accountability; and (5) working on the business with a developed team and long-term systems. They describe PX resources, community support, onboarding/check-in calls, and a 30-day trial!
