17th Annual Summit Opening Session

The Top Practices Summit opens with an information-packed, high-energy session led by Top Practices Founder and CEO, Rem Jackson, and the most successful Top Practices doctors. Your chosen profession is a key to achieving prosperity, which is something much greater than success. Operating a podiatry practice (or any small business) is not for the faint of heart. There are great challenges facing everyone (not just podiatrists). In fact, the failure rate is staggering for small business startups in the first five years. Podiatry practices typically don’t fail at anywhere near this rate, but thriving is a very different situation than surviving and struggling day-to-day. Why then, do a small few of us seem to thrive and love our work while most of us just can’t break the cycle and are left with too much work, too little time, too much stress, and burnout?

Rem Jackson

There are answers. There are strategies, tools, and tactics that will forever allow you to build an incredible team and reclaim your personal life while earning significantly more money.

In this opening session, Rem and Top Practices doctors who have “cracked the code” share how you can accomplish all of this. It all starts here. You CAN do this.

Be sure your travel plans make it possible for you to be in your seat and ready when the conference opens at 5:30 PM. This is one of the most anticipated sessions at the Summit and will set the pace for your next 12 months.
