Imagine a day in your clinic when patients tell you the treatment that they want, how to present it to them and then they say “Yes”! Believe it or not-it happens every day in your practice…if you know how to listen for it.
We would like to invite the entire office team to join Dr.’ McDonald & Melkers as they share their secrets and perspective on communication success & integrating orthotic therapy or better patient care
Understanding “No” and why it happens …
A patient’s perspective on what they will and won’t do-and why
“Buttons” and Barriers…how patient’s tell us EXACTLY what we need to hear
Communication philosophy and application that works in almost any practice
Explore and de-mystify various orthotic designs...and what they are for
Outcome based othotic therapy and continuing orthotic care…you have never seen this!
Please join us with your entire team for an exciting program of take it home Monday fun and useful information
“After hundreds of hours of courses on how to do the dentistry I want, it was refreshing to actually learn how to GET to do the dentistry I want.” Dr. A.M.
“We could not believe how easy it was to take the techniques we learned and put them to use. Our office has never been more productive!” C.B.
“Dr.’s McDonald and Melkers-I cannot tell you what an impact your communications course had on my husband. After almost 30 years in practice I have never seen a greater change for the better than after we attended your course. Thank you.” S.G.
