Show Notes
They say there are only two things guaranteed in life...
Death and taxes.
And their probably not too far wrong!
In this week's podcast episode I discuss 3 physio 'taxes' which are stopping so many new grads from making progress...
Both clinically and professionally.
These hidden 'taxes' are not financial like most taxes, but must be 'paid' if you want to start to get more consistent positive patient results...
And if you want to start climbing the career ladder.
Listen to find out more!!!
Enjoy the show!

I asked a question earlier this week on my socials...
Ever had a patient walk into your clinic with an injury you've never seen before… And suddenly felt like an imposter? In this episode, I explore why unfamiliar injuries can knock your confidence as a new grad physio... And more importantly, why falling back on the treatments and rehab exercises you already know doesn't always get the results you're looking for! I use a real-life case study as an example, to highlight the importance of clinical reasoning, about questioning your initial diagnosis, considering differential diagnoses, to help you adapt your rehab when a patient isn't improving. More importantly, I'll explain why you don't have to wait until you've seen an injury for the first time to start learning how to manage it. Enjoy the show! Andy Barker The New Grad Physio Mentor PS.

Early in my career I never got this. But one of the biggest improvements in my own practice came when I understood I could have such a bigger impact with my patients... By simply asking better questions. In this episode, you'll discover why “getting out of pain” is rarely the real goal for any patient... And why understanding what they actually want will completely change your assessments, communication and rehab planning. And I'll give you three simple questions you should be asking every patient you see (questions that were not taught at Uni)! Enjoy the show! Andy Barker The New Grad Physio Mentor PS.
