E-mail message this week .. mirror image The other day I was providing a report of findings to a new patient. She asked a simple question asked of me thousands of times in my 25 years of practice .. "what is wrong with me." Anticipating the question .. I was armed with the usual and customary answers .. structural analogies with radiological examples .. soft tissue components with elements of instability .. ergonomic and daily living reasons for her present and future irritation and the subluxation complex as I describe it. I imagine that providing this discussion or monologue so often has left me occasionally numb to the concern and fears of the person asking the question. As much compassion I think I have .. I still found myself detached and somewhat aloof to the present moment. Leaving this patient and realizing how hard I worked to get my message across was a revelation. Stop .. stop and consider that each patient .. as many you see .. are your brother or sister .. mother or father .. grandma or grandpa and deserve no less of your time .. compassion and understanding. Look in the mirror .. would your report and educational process pass muster if you were the patient? Review every educational pamphlet or newsletter you have or send. Does you office videos date back to pre-cold war times .. are posters or office pictures upbeat and impressionable .. patient forms so copied that words smear across the sheet .. are your equipment torn and worn? You know what I mean .. check everything .. both you and your staff. Schedule an office meeting with each staff member or even some patients providing their own office report of findings. Place your office before the proverbial mirror .. are you pleased with what you see? Take this opportunity a few weeks prior to Thanksgiving to regroup and rethink your office procedures and purpose. Be clear of your message and how you express it. Explore technical components that are used to assist your patients and reinforce areas of weakness. Review your ability to determine each patients needs and support. Regardless of your level of success or status in life .. you have the ability to enhance it even further by recreating your office at will. Just be sure that as you do .. you look in the mirror and satisfied with the image you see.
