Just the heal alone won't give anything substantial to justify it. It would be a good change, but still a half-assed one in my opinion. A low potency GCD heal that doesn't offer anything else only serves to annoy your healers if they see it being casted, and the effect of relying on Physick to survive in solo play is even worse because it's the equivalent of using Cure 1 and emptying out your MP while the enemies are slapping you to death. No, if SMN gets a change for Physick, it has to offer some strategic value in a party setting, but not a straight-up potency gain by replacing a healer.
    So... make it transform during the various summons? Basically be each Summon's utility button. During Pheonix it could offer a powerful single target regen effect (as summoning phoenix already applies a regen effect to the party), during Bahamut it could apply a vulnerability debuff on the enemy, during Titan it could apply stoneskin, during Ifrit it could apply a potent dot, during Garuda it could buff haste (though that would probably just mean for optimization you do Garuda before Ifrit so the Haste speeds up the Ifrit casts).

    This is by far the most interesting suggestion I've seen.
