Thought:  All I know is what I read in the newspapers.  Will Rogers

Action:  Make it a daily habit to scan the newspaper and send clippings and congratulations to patients and those who might become patients who are mentioned in the paper. 

August 21

Thought:  Daily patient research can yield great dividends. 

Action:  Make the following inquiries of every existing patient:  (1) What else could we do to make your visit even better?  (2)  Who in your life needs to come to our office and be a patient just like you?  Keep making these inquiries until it becomes a habit.  Make patients’ lives better and get their help to make someone else’s life better too by becoming your patient.
