 Note: There are a number of new subscribers this week. My free weekly e-mail has been sent to over 3500 chiropractors in 35 countries since 1996. Besides my message of the week, you have the ability to post a practice for sale, employment opportunities, equipment to sell or buy as well as questions to be answered. Just e-mail it to me by Thursday for the early Friday e-mailing. If you know of other doctors wanting to subscribe, e-mail their address to me. Also, please reply back with your office information with webpage, etc. for my referral list. My information is below   Postings this week  DC is looking for an associate Greensboro, Ga ..

Patient Awareness   I cannot belabor this point enough, an educated patient is apt to follow their schedule, pay on their account, refer their family and friends and generally receive the best results from their chiropractic experience.  So, it’s truly a shame that the average chiropractor provides limited resources for their patients and staff leaving them with questions, lack of knowledge and the reason they should be responsible for their health. It’s no wonder the average practice is always hunting for new patients rather than maintaining a healthy practice with referrals and wellness/maintenance patients. If patients rely solely on the slim pickens of patient education, your practice will always be on the hunt for new ones. Frustrating for sure.   We are no different when purchasing a new techno toy. You probably ravage through the instructions looking for clues to benefit the most from your purchase. With computer software as an example, the average owner uses no more than 15% of its potential, but while observing a wizard at work, it blows you away with how much more can be accomplished. Imagine extending the chiropractic health and wellness knowledgebase with your patients and they appreciate your vision, your practice will exponentially grow making life easier.   With chiropractic knowledge, it is easier for them to hold their adjustments with appreciated care, participate in various office and chiropractic community events and better yet, feel as if they are teaming with you by telling the chiropractic story to their neighbors, fellow church members and workmates. But, if there has not been a value placed on spinal health and the purpose of chiropractic care, why would they follow through with wellness/maintenance care once the pain subsides or ever refer anyone. If they didn’t sit through your spinal care class and/or received a knee to knee introduction of their spine and your and their wellness goals, why would they feel compelled to change their posture with proper ergonomics and adjusting their daily life and consider proper stretch exercises and your treatment plan unless they were excited about the possibility of increasing their potential and living their life with managed or no pain? So, don’t expect referrals or the phone jumping off the hook if your actions are null and void. Trust me, if you look to the left and right during your next association meeting, these folks are probably slackers leaving more people for us to introduce our story of Health and Wellness.    Hope you look in the mirror and don’t see a slacker, be sure you educate your staff as well.   Patient Awareness is Everything   Have a Great Day   Dr. M   You can always unsubscribe at the bottom of this e-mail and subscribe others as well.   Joel E.
