2026 E4 - Why Are We So Obsessed With 30-Minute Consults?

Few topics in physiotherapy provoke more heated debate than consult length — and in this episode, Jeremy and James dive headfirst into it. Is the 30-minute follow-up consult a clinical necessity, or has it simply become an unquestioned default? They unpack why the real conversation should centre on hourly rate rather than arbitrary time blocks, how 20-minute consults can deliver genuine value for the right presentation, and why sharpening your clinical efficiency isn't a compromise — it's a professional skill. Whether you're a clinician, a practice owner, or somewhere in between, expect to be challenged. Fair warning: some of you will be triggered.

2026 E3 - The Power of the Net Promoter Score: Predicting Practice Success and Building Patient Loyalty

In this episode of The Art and Science of Physio, Jeremy and James explore the Net Promoter Score (NPS), a highly validated tool used to predict the future success of a physiotherapy practice.

The hosts break down the startling data behind what the scores mean in regards to referrals, return business and they warn against the "danger zone" of merely satisfied clients. Listeners will learn practical strategies for collecting unskewed data, and the "game-changing" second question that uncovers exactly how to move patients from being satisfied to becoming loyal advocates.
