Ep 323: This GP DOUBLED his list size

About this episode

Dr Nabeel Arshad discusses how his practice doubled its patient list and the implications for revenue and sustainability.

https://www.growyourlistsize.co.uk/ On the Medics’ Money Podcast, GP partner Dr Nabeel Arshad of Brooks Surgery in Manchester discusses how his practice doubled its patient list from 10,000 to 20,000 over five years, contributing to over £1.9m in recurring revenue and enabling reinvestment in more doctors, trainees, specialist staff, and technology while increasing partner take-home and maintaining access and high patient satisfaction. He explains why profit matters for partnership sustainability and why income streams tied to clinician time (insurance reports, teaching, joint injections) don’t scale and can be withdrawn, whereas list size is more stable and supports further income via QOF, ARRS/PCN budgets. He outlines his GrowYourListSize.co.uk service, including eligibility screening, controlled growth, geographic exclusivity, a six-month money-back guarantee, and a free practice growth report. 00:00 Meet Dr Nabeel Arshad 01:51 Why Working Harder Fails 05:00 Scaling With Systems 07:35 The Numbers Behind Growth 10:42 Google Reviews Matter 14:24 Recurring Revenue Security 17:26 PCN And QOF Upside 18:44 Succession And Recruitment 21:38 Service Guarantee And Exclusivity 24:23…
