Where to Put A Practice:
It is a simple issue. Almost every dentist has to
face it at one time or another. Where is the best place to put a
practice? This program deals with the information professionals need
to know to decide on the best site for their practices. Age, income,
culture, and transportation arteries are just a few of the things they
need to know. Competition evaluation, ratios of
patients-to-professionals and zoning are vital to have explained in
specific. more >> |

Mind Games:
You only THINK you know why people do what they do. Research
has shown that there is much more than meets the eye when it comes to
how people make decisions. Everyone is in the business of people.
Employers, salesmen, marketing professionals, healthcare providers,
EVERYONE is in the business of reading the wants and needs of other
people. They must influence others to accept recommendations, buy
products and services, pay bills and, sometimes, just show up.

Communicating Diagnosis Effectively:
This program will provide doctors and their
staff specific instruction on how to help them communicate persuasively
with patients and each other. This will facilitate follow-through,
collections, treatment plan acceptance, and interpersonal communications
of all types. It was originally created as a means to help doctors avoid
patient and staff conflicts pro-actively. This is sometimes necessary to
avoid problems which can become law-suits and peer review cases. By
taking a scientific and reasoned approach to interpersonal communications,
everyone in the office will benefit.
