‘I wanted to host this summit to lift our allied health community at the moment. It’s fair to say running a practice is not always easy, but it’s better when we are all together…. Learning and finding ways to make the path easier.

At the heart of it all, we believe in being “smart with heart.” This means combining savvy business tactics with a compassionate approach to healthcare. It’s about building a practice that’s as healthy and robust as the patients you serve.’

Amy Geach, Founder and CEO of The Connection. B.App.Sc(OT), M.Clin.Sc, MBA
