Podiatry Legends Podcast

info_outlineDr Rob Conenello has always had the mantra, ‘Do Great Things’, and after overcoming Stage 4 Throat Cancer, where he was only given a 20% survival rate, he chose not to let statistics get in the way of his ambitions to live a full life with his young family and to pursue his podiatry career and goals. He has gone on to ‘Do Great Things’ himself and encourages others to do the same.
Dr Rob Conenello is a sports podiatrist and owner of Orangetown Podiatry, New York. He is the Global Clinical Advisor at Special Olympics International and is a Past President of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine. He is also an Honorary Surgeon for the New York Police Department.
In this episode, we discuss:
- What he has learnt from other podiatrists (Doug Ritchie, Richard Blake, Ivan Bristow, Simon Bartold, Mike Donato, and others).
- Starting as a volunteer and working his way through the state, national and internal levels of sports medicine.
- Getting nervous before speaking (even on podcasts).
- Orthotics is not sports podiatry.
- Learning from retailers (shoe stores), physical therapists, and athletic events.
- You can’t do everything in podiatry, so instead, focus on what brings you joy and happiness.
- It’s okay to say NO to certain things; one of the first things he said NO to was surgery.
- Helping athletes reach their goals.
- There’s Riches in Niches.
- Aim to be the best, and don’t set your goal to be average.
- DO GREAT THINGS.
- Associating with positive podiatrists and avoiding time with negative ones.
- Building Relationships = Communication & Trust.
- Book by Arnold Schwarzenegger - BE USEFUL
“There should be a war on average.” - Dr Rob Conenello.

Do You Think Differently to Other Podiatrists?
If you do, I want to let you know you’re not alone, and most of my coaching clients feel the same way, which is why they chose to work with me over a larger cookie-cutter coaching company.
My coaching clients do not have big egos; they are quiet achievers and like to fly under the radar, but they do want to evolve their podiatry businesses into something special, something they can be proud of and say, “This is mine”.
If this sounds like you, we should talk.
You can visit my website, www.tysonfranklin.com, for more information or use my ONLINE CALENDAR to schedule a free thirty-minute Zoom meeting.
During our call, I will explain the Thriving Podiatry Business Model, which I’ve developed over many years. After we talk, I guarantee you will have more clarity on what is best for you and your business.
“I was a frustrated business owner for five years until I started working with Tyson. He helped me transform my business in a matter of months, resulting in an instant increase in revenue and the ability to attract and retain top quality podiatrists. Over the past three and a half years, working with Tyson has changed my life drastically. I was able to take time off to start a family, triple my business revenue, and finally achieve work-life balance. I highly recommend Tyson to anyone who is looking for a business coach.”
