E-mail message this week: Wait Loss „Wait a minute .. If you just wait I¼ll be ready .. I would have done it today but I couldn¼t wait. Procrastination .. waiting .. doing it tomorrow. Putting something off today for an attempt tomorrow falls within the category of Wait Loss .. whatever the excuse is. Loss of revenue .. loss of momentum .. loss of energy .. loss of business. Don¼t get in the rut of Wait Loss. Wait Watchers .. those who look from the sidelines are Wait Watchers .. complaining that nothing gets done or seems to work .. the practice is going nowhere ..patients slip through the cracks. Wait Gainers .. also look busy but also never get it done .. they usually rush rush and wait .. they accumulate time but have their engines in neutral while their foot is hard on the pedal going nowhere fast. Wait Awhiles .. are also very concern. These fine folks plan on doing it and some of the plans are quite elaborate .. yep .. just wait awhile. Trouble is .. they¼re still waiting. Doctor .. Valentine¼s day is just around the corner .. do you think you can create some enthusiasm in your office ..create a program with Chirotines (Chiropractic valentines) and share your appreciation with your patients and staff..

Detech Educational Systems: Network several TV's off the computer we supply, and place them wherever patients seem to "hang out" in the office, the reception room, hot seat areas, rehab, or therapy areas, even adjusting rooms. The Detech system lets you educate your patients three ways: First, our stock library of hundreds of chiropractic images and statements of purpose will act as a main frame of patient education. Second, you can send us photos of your staff, office, but best of all patient testimonials make the Detech system "pop". Third, You have a series of "typable" backgrounds that can be changed and re-used almost infinitely. This where you'd welcome new patients to your office, thank you's for referrals, happy birthday screen and much more. If you'd find it a fair exchange to adjust one to two patients per week in exchange for making certain that every other patient better understood what you do in the office every day, than you should find out more.

Palmer: Time Magazine has omitted any Chiropractor as one of the most important people of the 20th Century. They are presently accumulating votes in the category of the most important scientists and healers of the 20th century. Visualize B. J. Palmer, DC being profiled in Time and on TV as one of the 100 most important people of the 20th century. We should cast our vote for B. J. Palmer. DC the "developer" of Chiropractic as one of the most important scientists and healers of the 20th century. "Chiropractic's charismatic leader was imbued with enormous energy, and commitment to Chiropractic and wellness. His work and inspiration have influenced generations of Chiropractors. It was under B. J.'s direction that the Palmer School of Chiropractic grew from a student body of only a few dozen to nearly 3,000 by the 1930s. B. J.'s devotion to Chiropractic was unwavering, and his involvement in Chiropractic was all-consuming. Without him Chiropractic might not have survived...without him would we be witness today to the huge growth in 'Alternative Care?""

If you practice there and have some info to share: reply to: tisabell@juno.com DC radiologist offers his service: DC offers a X-ray program of pre-paid reports. When a referring doctor pays ahead (150.00 for 10 areas) we credit their account and when they send in films to be read there is only a $15.00 charge per area. e.g., When a doctor sends us two areas (cervical series and lumbar series) then the fee is $30.00 for that patient. This program works great for medicare, cash, or managed care patients with limited radiology coverage but can be used for any type of case. We also do separate billing so that there is no cost to the doctor. Steven J. Gould, D.C., D.A.C.B.R. P.O. Box 771001 Wichita, KS. 67277-1001 316-262-4999 reply to: drsgould@ix.netcom.com
