Dear Doctor, Thank you for your response regarding the position in San Jose, Costa Rica. Let us tell you a little about the position. In the beginning of April 2000, we will need two DC's to work at a busy practice in Costa Rica. The term is one year, and renewable based on your performance. This practice currently ranges from 180 to 250+ visits per week. The vist cost is equivalent to about $12 US dollars/visit. It is growing at an alarming rate due to new advertising. Patient referrals are currently the largest marketing tool. You will have your own patient base, and will be required to care for those patients, and market new ones. The practice is straight in nature, with no modalities. Patients are there because they want to be healthy and believe in Chiropractic, not just because they may be in pain. Patient age ranges from infants to elderly. Philosophical Chiropractic is all that they know, and we do not want to jeapordize their beautiful understanding of what we do. It is a paid position (salary + percentage of money brought in), with possible added incentives to achieve. We want you to do well and be comfortable so you may want to renew at the end of the year term. We are in the process of opening clinics all over Central America, and need team leaders to move up the ladder and grow with us. We are providing an opportunity for you practice Chiropractic the way it was meant to be, without opposition and scrutiny. Medical doctors here realize that we are separate and distinct, and refer to our office out of appreciation for what Chiropractic is about. The clinic is in a busy part of the city. We have company paid living quarters available for the incoming doctors. It's a beautiful, new three bedroom house in the mountains, 20-25 minutes from the office. While in Costa Rica the doctors will have access to an automobile. Maid service (cooking,cleaning,laundry) is available for about $6-$7 US dollars/day, if you desire. You have the option of many things available in the states (cable TV, internet access, nearby fitness centers, nightclubs, etc.) Oh yes, we cannot forget the beautiful beaches, rainforest and culture of Costa Rica. Attached is an application. Please fill it out and fax it ASAP to: (770)428-8082 or (770)803-0082 ATTENTION DR. SCHNEIDER Once we received your application, we will contact you and set up a meeting (in person on by telephone). We can discuss salary, particulars about the practice, and any other questions that you may have. PLEASE FILL OUT THE APPLICATION AND FAX IT TO US AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, WE NEED TO FILL THESE POSITIONS AT ONCE, AND HAVE NO TIME TO DELAY. Again, thank you for your interest, Edward Schneider, D.C.
