Who is the Foot Health Network ?

The Foot Health Network is and what we do.

 We know firsthand the struggles that come with running busy and successful foot health businesses.   We created a network that would help other podiatric business owners find a successful path through the common pitfalls of being a business owner.  

At TFHN, we are passionate about helping podiatric providers.

Whether you are considering a new start-up, or have just purchased your first practice, or maybe you have grown too fast and can't keep up.  

We can help with that.  

Maybe you are wanting to plan an exit from your practice that has taken so many years of blood, sweat and tears to build.  

We can help you get there, too.  

We have assembled a team of effective coaching, consulting, and training services to help you thrive in your own podiatry business.

We share a commitment to creating stability, efficiency and consistency.

Solo Private Practice

Support Team

Running a private practice doesn’t have to be done alone.  

We can help you reclaim your time and look forward to Mondays again.

Dave Simard

Clinical Team Coach

Dave is a practice management coach at The Foot Health Network and has been a practice owner for almost 30 years.

When he started his practice, there were no roadmaps, no models, and no mentors available, as private practice was a brand new entity.

At the Foot Health Network, it is Dave’s passion to help other solo practitioners (who are tired of running a business on their own) BUILD, MANAGE, and RUN their solo private practice.

Jodi Simard

TFHN Practice Management Coach

Jodi Simard is a practice management coach at The Foot Health Network and the practice manager at Simard Foot & Ankle Clinic, where she works alongside her husband, Dave.

At the Foot Health Network, she works with solo practitioners to build efficiencies into their daily clinic operations so they can reclaim their time and look forward to Mondays again.
