Description

What if your clinic design could change the way you deliver care?

In this episode, we’re talking to Meg and Neena — physios-turned-designers and the founders of Articulate Design + Consulting. After years in clinical practice, they saw firsthand how the spaces we work in can either help or hinder care. Now, they’re on a mission to reimagine healthcare spaces for both patients and practitioners.

Meg and Neena sit down with Denzil to share why thoughtful design goes far beyond paint colours and furniture placement. They talk about how your environment shapes the way you work, how to bring your personality into your clinic without sacrificing function, and why ditching the front desk might be the boldest — and best — move you’ll ever make.

What you’ll Learn

  • How subtle design choices can influence the care you provide
  • Ways to infuse your clinic with your unique personality
  • Why it might be time to challenge conventional clinic layouts

In this episode, Meg and Neena explore how intuitive clinic layouts like ditching the traditional front desk and creating self-serve spaces can unlock both style and function. That’s where Jane’s Wait List Management shines. It ensures your schedule stays full by notifying clients the moment a spot opens up, via email or SMS, or even automatically if enabled. It’s an elegant way to keep the clinic humming, let your space stay uncluttered, and reduce downtime without lifting a finger.
