The Benefits of Having a Medical Distant Assistant in Your Medical Private Practice | Dr. David Laurino

Hiring distant assistants on your team enables you to focus on more specialized and technical tasks. So today, we speak with Dr. David Laurino, the co-founder and managing partner of Bottleneck Medical Virtual Services, and the founder and CEO of the Podiatry Success Institute, about how strategic delegation with distant assistants can help you grow your business.

With nearly 20 years of professional experience, Dr. Laurino speaks about how DAs assist your business in providing high-level customer service.

Strengthening The Culture

Dr. David always reminds his staff that they are not just in a foot and ankle business, but they are also in a customer service business. He says that core values should technically be the bible for your business so that everyone is on the same page. Additionally, he says that systems are very critical to their business as a strategy.

“The reality of it is you have to surround yourself with a strong team that lives by your culture and your core values. Build the systems and then you’ve almost got a bulletproof business.” – Dr. David Laurino

Hiring Distant Assistants

Dr. David and his friend decided to figure out how they can make the business better for physicians. They realized that there are many non-essential tasks that can be handled by other people virtually. He says that 60 to 70 percent of their stuff is handled by distant assistants.

“We don’t have to have somebody physically sitting here to answer a telephone, do a call back for a prescription, answer an email, or write a social media post. The list goes on and on as to what a distant assistant can do for us here in medical practices and just businesses in general.” Dr. David Laurino

Importance of Personal Time

Dr. David says that he gained 12 to 15 hours a week of personal time after hiring a distant medical scribe. Time is one finite resource none of us are getting back. So, he advises maximizing the time that we have to do the things that we love to do with ourselves and our loved ones.

“We want to try and gain as much personal time as we can to do the things that we love to do with the people we love to do. As I said, when I hit that burnout point, it was just the spark or the impetus that said something’s got to change, and there’s got to be a better way to do this.” – Dr. David Laurino

I started last March 24, 2021 as a Dedicated Distant Assistant and it was an awesome experience. In this new journey, as Security Administrator of Bottleneck Distant Assistants, I have been supported by the team, A LOT !!!! All help that I need, the whole team is there to support me. I know that there are a lot of room for improvements with my skills and what I know, but because of BNDA, I became equipped with all the weapons I need to conquer the daily challenges especially with my tasks. With BNDA, they will not just help you to aim high, but soar the skies!

What an awesome business! Finally, a way to hire the RIGHT person for my administrative tasks and they are remote! No office space to consider, W2's, 1099's or payroll. Jaime and his team of remote workers are top-notch! I hired my first assistant in May. I recently suffered a motorcycle accident and it left me unable to work for 2 weeks. But my assistant stepped right in to guide our CEO on all matters financial. It’s so nice to have that stress eliminated from my life!
