Sometimes in spite of your efforts to satisfy the needs of every patient, something may occur that leaves a member of your community less than satisfied with the services received, or business practices. Ineffectual problem management is a widespread practice in today’s business environment, but by following this easy checklist, you can ensure that you don’t loose patients, or valuable dollars from your bottom line, because someone walked away unsatisfied.

1.  Adopt a positive attitude

A commonly shared positive attitude creates a personality for your business that is shared and perceived by everyone who comes in contact with your practice, and is the very foundation of good service.  Without a positive attitude, even in the face of a challenging situation,  you and/or your staff will lack the motivation necessary to take necessary action when a patient is less than satisfied. Additionally, attitude is contagious, and putting a positive spin on even the most difficult situation can go a long way towards changing the minds of even the most disgruntled patient. Read more

Chiropractors have long been considered a valuable treatment option in a patient’s quest to reduce or eliminate neck pain. The latest research outcomes have proven chiropractic to be not just clinically effective, but also a very cost effective option.

Benefits Outweigh the Risks

In a study of 529 patients undergoing treatment for neck pain with a follow up period of 12 months, the researchers found that while “adverse events” were fairly common, reported by 53% of the participants after any of the first three treatment visits, all but 13% reported these to be mild pain related symptoms that were self-limiting. No serious adverse events were reported during the course of the study. Half of the patients reported resolution of neck pain by the third visit, and 2/3 reported resolution prior to three months of treatment. The researchers concluded that the benefits of SMT as a treatment for neck pain far outweigh the risks involved.

Chiropractic Manipulation “Very Helpful”

Researchers conducted a national telephone survey of 2055 adults to determine which treatments were utilized as treatment for neck pain, and which were perceived as effective.  Thirty-seven percent of neck pain sufferers had seen a conventional provider and 54% had sought complimentary therapies, with 20% seeking chiropractic care and 14% employing massage.  Chiropractic, Read more

Statistics show that times are changing, and while it used to be true that the majority of chiropractic new graduates hang out a shingle and start their own business, more and more of you are now turning to working in an associate position for at least a short time following graduation. While this can be an attractive route because it affords you the opportunity to earn a living while also gaining real world experience, which can be invaluable to you throughout the duration of your career, such an opportunity often comes at a price. You will soon discover that with that coveted job offer comes an often times very restrictive employment contract that, should you choose to sign it, may put a damper on your future goals, at least for some time. In this article, we will examine the issue of the non-compete, and offer suggestions that you should employ when crossing this hurdle post-graduation.
What is in the Non-Compete? What Does it Mean?
A standard covenant not to compete will typically delineate how far away one must practice from the employer and for what period of time such restrictions are necessary following termination from Read more
