Last week I received an e-mail from a doctor who felt he offers a great service and gains the respect he deserves but patient referrals are few and far between. He questioned his level of commitment and ability to communicate as to why he was failing at getting new patients from present patients he cares for. Do you have a clue? Another DC who e-mailed me felt his practice was rolling along well but the capacity to see more was well within his ability .. he was frustrated at his untapped potential and wondered how to add more. Do you have a clue? Last month I received an e-mail from a doctor overseas wondering why we Americans are so splintered and our professional growth is stagnant which affects chiropractic globally. Do you have a clue? A CA e-mailed me for her doctor wondering why their patient health talks were sparsely attended and patients rarely brought guests. Do you have a clue? Along with this question was the DC that wondered why his community .. ripe with corporate office buildings .. was not attentive to his willingness to provide ergonomic classes. Do you have a clue? A few weeks back a doctor wrote that she was almost burnt out trying to hustle more patients in her office when she felt being a skilled doctor should be enough. Do you have a clue? A common question is how to break the yo- yo practice .. on month up the next down. Do you have a clue? If you too have concerns or questions or just need a soundboard to jabber at .. e-mail me and if the questions are good and my answers are better I place it on my webpage under Cyberconsulting. This is a free service that many DC's utilize. If my answers are not sufficient ask the other DC's found on the Mentor section of my webpage. Maybe you have a referral program or a successful script. Have you written them down for your new staff study guide? Maybe you have some sound techniques to break through the corporate world to offer ergonomic programs or health screenings. Why not share it with almost 11,000 DC's these e-mails go to. Possibly you have some sound advice to prevent burnout if so share it with us. Health care talks always are recommended but too often a neglected part of practice management. Do you have some unique way of having new patients and their guests attend? Have you broken the cycle of hustling for patients and concentrate on caring for those you have? If the balance has added to your practice numbers and made life easier let us know what you did. I'd like to accumulate the best ideas and place it on my webpage under Cyberconsulting. So if sharing is caring now is your time to do so. After reading the message above reply with your answers if you have a clue. Have a Great Day Dr. M Postings: Practice for sale in Duluth Ga: Last Year Gross 165K will sell for 85K. DC I retiring.
