Why We Are Here

History of SIRG

Skagit Island Rehabilitation Group began with a genuine desire to find the answers to the following questions posed by a small business, private practice owner:

  1. How well am I doing?
  2. What is the letter grade I would receive for running my clinic?
  3. Should I be content with the operations of my business and my bottom line?
  4. How do I compare with my peers?
  5. Am I feeling overworked for a good reason?
  6. How can I focus on my patients when I have to take care of the "dirty work"?

The desire to know the answers resulted in these revelations:

  1. I want regular and relevant information that would illustrate the health of my practice while being a trusted source of practice management advice.
  2. No less than an "A" should be considered as success; all aspects of running a business should include informed, intelligent decisions.
  3. I need fact-based evidence and credible resources to feel confident that my business is not only succeeding, but thriving, with solutions for collections, AR strategies, and analysis reporting.
  4. I want a source of camaraderie, interaction, and a critical ear for ideas with other experienced, credible private practice owners.
  5. I need to see concrete results that my efforts that make me feel confident that my efforts are not wasted.
  6. I want to be the BEST clinician possible for my patients.

After several trial options of consulting with highly reputable business minds and accounting experts, Greg Fritz, PT, came to the realization that financial advisors think as "historians of data", and do not forecast possibilities and realities that translate to therapy-minded clinicians. He brought on Travis Heisman, CPA and co-founder of SIRG, who understood the small business owner mentality and was able to translate "financial-eze" into easily understandable and relevant principles. SIRG was rolled out after obtaining financing, managing those finances, and developing sound, stable systems and infrastructure that still exist and are implemented to this day. Travis is no longer with the company, but Greg's desire to keep SIRG alive lived on, but was impeded by his passion for and necessity of full-time patient care.

Still believing that the need for SIRG to the small business owner remains and is of tremendous value, Greg continues to offer the services of SIRG, which now consists of a dedicated team of knowledgable, trained professionals, who strive to help the small business owners of physical therapy clinics to be "better than expected". More time with family, personal happiness, and security in knowing you are part of a network of clinic owners with the same aspirations is what SIRG can offer to your business.
