Philosophy Abstracts called for by Sherman College .. Kids Day America/International E-mail message this week .. Back to the Well This past weekend I attended the Fernandez Seminar in Atlanta. I taught on Sunday and enjoyed speaking with the CA's and the doctors concerning marketing and creating professional alliances within the community but I took the opportunity on Saturday to listen to Dr. Bill Cannister who teaches the fundamentals of patient consultation and the report of findings. I decided I needed a refresher course of practice fundamentals and returned to the well to soak in time tested ideas. Every idea was well grounded and based on years of experience. There is a science of patient communication and it is sorely lacking in the curriculum of every chiropractic college. It was refreshing to recapture the basic science of patient management. We often forget that schooling didn't stop on diploma day but actually began. The psychology of patient management is as important as their physiology and this learning curve dips with time unless you return to the well to replenish. I am also placing Dr. Karl Parker's patient communications articles on my website under Practice tips. I recommend you review these while you visit and copy and paste. I enjoy the game of patient acquisition and realize that new patients are the lifeblood of a practice but maintaining their interest in wellness and chiropractic and creating referrals from them is the key to success. There are few shortcuts for success although many DC's look between the cracks for some. They will fine tune the examination and pay for a marketing person but leave little time to hone their basic fundamental skills of patient communications. A person suffering needlessly is a person not yet your patient. A family where togetherness has been on the wane has a chance to regain that sparkle if they participate in wellness with your gifted hands. Gifted words and deeds will merge when you feel comfortable with the words to the song of Life and Health .. Chiropractic. Learn the words well .. practice day after day and consider each day an audition that even Simon Cowell would be proud of Go back to the well and Have a Great Day Dr. M Postings: Practice for sale in Southern California: Practice for sale in Diamond Bar, Ca.

Big Savings! Reply to: Wingchndoc@aol.com Educational patient CDs: Doctor, how much do you retain from a one-time report? Don't you need reinforcement to re-stimulate you? So do your patients! The most important Chiropractic marketing you can do is to keep your patients motivated. Doctor, do you have time to present several Chiropractic lay lectures each week? Probably not. Do you have time to stop and re-explain Chiropractic care to each patient after each adjustment? I doubt it! Are your patients getting as much Chiropractic information as they need. Increased Chiropractic patient education results in patient retention, and referrals. Doctor, you can have the time to give your patients dynamic Chiropractic information with each adjustment! And you, or your Chiropractic Assistant, can do it in 1 minute of staff time! With a Teaching Chiropractic CD, plus a simple CD player you will turn wasted waiting time - or quiet therapy time - into Chiropractic patient education time.Check this webpage for CD titles: www.TeachingChiropractic.com For sale Chiropractic Tables: I will deliver to the best buyer: Flexion Distraction excellent leather condition: $410 OBO Knee Chest: Make me an offer.
