About this episode
In this episode, Dr. Barbara Hales talks with Dr. Michael Neal about building the best hiring system for doctors.
Neal, founder of Build My Team, shares how his company streamlines the hiring process for healthcare practices by finding top-tier talent without the usual hassle.
He explains how their system uses surveys, cognitive and personality assessments, and video interviews to narrow hundreds of applicants down to the most qualified and culturally compatible.
The approach focuses on hiring for attitude and alignment with core values—not just resumes—saving doctors from costly hiring mistakes.
Neal points out that most healthcare providers aren’t trained in hiring, often leading to poor results, burnout, or high turnover.
He shares that his company takes the guesswork out of hiring by providing pre-vetted candidates for interview, making the process stress-free and efficient.
With a 93% retention rate, Build My Team proves that a strategic hiring system can lead to long-term team satisfaction and stronger practices.
Key Takeaway:
“Doctors are great at practicing medicine—not hiring. That’s where we come in—to help them build a team they can trust, so they can focus on what they do best.” – Dr. Michael Neal.
