GOH Medical is growing. Over the next several months we will need to add a new medical provider: a doctor, nurse practitioner, or a physician’s assistant. Do you know the right person for this job? Here are some thoughts to consider;
Our systems are in place, our team is becoming more competent and proactive. By this fall we will be running smoothly and ready to serve a larger group of patients with a population based, whole person orientation. We are looking for a provider(s) who shares our beliefs and philosophy to add years to the life and life to the years by empowering breakthroughs in the lives of those we serve.
Please contact us if you are interested or if you know someone who is.
Click here to listen to the message (if you have not heard it): Welcome Call. Practice phone number: (972)292-2247. Address 2706 Fairmount Street Dallas TX 75201.
Alright so guess how many cups of coffee I had before I recorded the message many of you have received? I had no idea that I was as wound up as I was but when I got the call (yes I was listed as a patient so I could hear what you heard) I thought “wow, I need to hold off the Starbucks a little!”
All joking aside I am excited to be back in practice. Randy Brown, a long time patient was the first to be seen at the new practice. His parents and children will someday be there too as I have had the pleasure of caring for them for two decades.
To be honest it is very strange to not be at TienaHealth, and I purposely moved to an office that is far enough away that I will not have an adverse effect on the providers there – all of whom I gave my word to when I recruited them that I would support and help them be successful in their practice. I miss the staff and the providers very much so if any of you see them then give them a big hug for me!
That said I also appreciate that it is a hardship for those of you that wish to remain with me to drive downtown. Frankly when you think about health care being divided into 1) prevention and early diagnosis of cancer, 2)management of chronic problems, and 3) acute problems really the only one that requires a sudden visit to the doctor ins the acute problem, and often this can be handled on the phone or web just as effectively.
So the vision is to have a very limited number of patients in the practice (say 400 – 500) as compared with a full practice which often has over 3000 people in the practice. LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BEING ONE OF THEM (send email – above right) Over the next several days we will share the vision of what we are going to create. I think you will be very excited!! Scott Conard, MD
Imagine a life that just flows with spontaneous energy and joy. Leaving the “should, would, could” world behind. Existing as unrestrained creativity and energy;
That is Intuitive Well-Being. Living a life where physical, social, emotional, financial, and spiritual success flows as an expression of your life. The state of being whole and complete in all areas without the distraction of that “inner conversation” wearing you out and holding you down.
Once you have achieved a spontaneous, ongoing success you have achieved tiena, a term derived from an Eritrean word meaning “whole and complete physically, emotionally, socially, financially and spiritually.”
How do you get there? The path is as individual as you are, but often it includes;
Would you consider working towards higher levels of mastery of intuitive well-being in your life?
If the answer is yes then post on this blog and consider reading The Seven Healers. Being committed and aware – contemplative in the effort will result in continual joy and tiena in your life. I look forward to the journey together.

The 15 minute train wreck – running room to room is dead. It has been shown to be ineffective and expensive. With just enough time to get a little information the provider (doctor or PA/NP) makes a quick assessment and launches out the door for the next patient. Frequently proper follow up and ongoing support is completely lost and the patient is left to wander in the wilderness called “modern” healthcare.
The new model is about continuity, transitions from one care environment (say, the hospital) to another (home), and personalized care. Outreach and follow up calls with problem solving and support, and team meetings to insure that what patients don’t know is not a reason to have unintended disease and death.
Do you know someone who wants to be a part of providing this care?
Let me know. It is time to build the team.

I am overjoyed (and greatly relieved) that I can now report that I am a “free agent.” I met with Dr Stoltz last Thursday and, at this point, I am no longer associated with Medical Edge or Texas Health Physician Group and will not be opening an office with them.
So it is time to get down to brass tacks and figure out what we are going to do. As all of you who know me well appreciate I am absolutely committed to
“Adding years to the life and life to the years of individuals, corporations, systems and nations to empower intuitive wellness.”
There will be two aspects of this pursuit for me – clinical practice and creating an Accountable Care System that empowers the Accountable (or Activated) Patient.
In the clinical practice I am committed to finding and growing old with a group of patients who too are committed to living a great life – reaching 100 years of age with vitality and joy.
What does not work for me in the practice is running in and out of rooms 15 minutes at a time until I am exhausted. This model does not work – the American Healthcare System has proven this without a doubt. So here are some basic to consider;
So now we start building a new model. The first thing is building the team to get the logistics of starting a practice accomplished. Not glamorous but necessary. let’s start with one foundational person; an organized, capable, motivated individual with some healthcare background (possibly an MA or nurse) who would like to run with the ball and create this enterprise. Do you know this person? If so, asap please send me their contact information to drscott@scottconard.com
Secondly, this individual will need some help. Would anyone be willing to volunteer to help with basic tasks ranging from filling out forms to running errands? It will take a village to create the ideal medical practice for our community, but and now we have the green light for go and we can proceed!
I miss you and look forward to seeing you soon in our new facility.
Dr Scott
