Ep 164: Creating a Network of Clinics That Function as One Organization with 40 Under 40 Awardee, Dr. Julie Wilson Part 2

Dr. Julie Wilson is a physician-entrepreneur on a mission to rebuild primary care from the inside out — not just for patients, but for the doctors who serve them.  As the Founder and CEO of Terra Nova Medical Clinics, she’s leading the largest and fastest-growing physician-led network in British Columbia, bringing a modern, collaborative, and tech-forward model of healthcare to a system that’s long been stuck in the past.  Frustrated by the outdated setups she saw across BC — single-doc offices, paper records, no cross-coverage — Julie built her first clinic in 2015 with a bold vision: integrated teams, cloud-based systems, and a structure that puts both providers and patients first. While many clinics shut their doors during the pandemic, she doubled down, scaling Terra Nova from one location serving 25,000 patients to a thriving network of seven clinics serving over 50,000.  Her approach blends medical excellence with compassion, ethical leadership, fair pay, career progression, and continuity of care — creating a blueprint for how primary care should work.  Named to Canada’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women and 40 Under 40, she’s also a healthcare advocate working to fix Canada’s physician shortage by mentoring international medical grads and influencing policy through her role with Doctors of BC.  Some of the topics we discussed were: What helps Dr. Wilson overcome obstacles she encounters on her journey and keep goingHow Dr. Wilson makes the time to run an interconnected network of clinicsThree pieces of advice Dr. Wilson would give to her past self when she was still in medical school based on her current experienceHow Dr. Wilson went from having one single family clinic to expanding to a network of clinicsWhat Dr. Wilson would recommend physicians on their journey to starting a practice and to expanding their practicesDr. Wilson’s 5 best tips for physicians on this journeyHow to make everyone on your staff happy with their working environmentHow to make your staff feel appreciatedHow to create flexibility for your staff in their schedules  And more!  Learn more about me or schedule a FREE coaching call: https://www.joyfulsuccessliving.com/ Join the Voices of Women Physicians Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/190596326343825/  Connect with Dr. Wilson:  Dr. Julie Wilson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-wilson-4a25b4214/  Terra Nova Medical Clinics: https://www.linkedin.com/company/terra-nova-medical-clinics/  Email: drwilson@terranovamedical.ca  Website: www.terranovamedical.ca
