How Dr. Tricia Thompson Launched a New Program and Grew Her Practice with the Help of Her Great Assistant

Stressed, Overwhelmed, and Losing Focus

Dr. Tricia Thompson is the owner and founder of Maryland Integrative Health which focuses on root cause medicine and wholehearted wellness.

Dr. Tricia was stressed and overwhelmed building and managing her integrative medicine practice online, while also caring for her patients.

“I was losing focus and was not able to balance my patient care and coordination with administrative tasks and marketing. I couldn’t focus on anything as well as I needed to and I was completely exhausted.”

“The Best Investment I’ve Made”

Another integrative physician recommended the Great Assistant Program to Dr. Tricia. She had never hired someone before and was relieved to have help finding someone with the experience and skills needed.

Dr. Tricia recalls, “It felt like a lot of money at the time, but I knew I had to get the right person for this role, or nothing in my business would grow. It’s turned out to be the best business investment I’ve ever made.”

Finally Organized and In-Control

In the Spring of 2020, Dr. Tricia was matched with Great Assistant, Mary.

Since onboarding and training, Dr. Tricia reports now feeling organized and in control of her business. Dr. Tricia added, “when I have a brilliant idea, we collaborate and Mary runs with it. Her professional level of communication is excellent.”

In addition to administrative tasks, Mary has taken on marketing and client services.

“She’s got it down to a science and has saved me so much time! Even when I’m not available, my clients receive a response within an hour.”

The Impact of Having Help

Thanks to her Great Assistant’s efficiency, Dr. Tricia has launched a new program and has grown the practice, welcoming new patients each week.

Dr. Tricia now does yoga almost every day and feels that her attention and focus is no longer split. She adds, “when I’m home, I’m able to be completely present. It’s amazing!”

Dr. Tricia's Advice To Those Considering Hiring a Great Assistant:

“Working with the Great Assistant Program was well worth the money! It was a smooth and easy process.

“I would likely still be looking for someone or would have made the costly mistake of hiring the wrong person and had to replace them by now.

“I’ve saved me so much money, time, and energy working with the Great Assistant Program.”
