Ascenti Shaped Elephants - Chewing It Over 30/04/2025

The Elephant in the Treatment Room Jack Chew is back, diving headfirst into a controversial topic that’s stirred the waters on LinkedIn. In this solo episode, Jack unpacks a bold statement made by a leader in UK physiotherapy regarding the undervaluation of quality care by private medical insurers — and the uncomfortable contradictions that come with it. From public post to corporate ownership, Jack explores the blurred lines between truth-telling and virtue signaling, the influence of venture capital on care standards, and why leadership accountability matters more than ever. This episode isn't just a takedown — it's a rallying call for integrity, transparency, and deeper discussion in MSK care. Join the conversation: ▪ Should clinic leaders speak out publicly or tackle issues internally? ▪ Are private medical insurers solely to blame for degrading care standards? ▪ What role does corporate consolidation play in patient outcomes?
