Doctor comments, by Dr. Ogi Ressel

Warmest wishes to all of you,

Approximately 6 weeks ago, I finished teaching Module I in Detroit.
Since then the doctors who attended that Program have experienced
amazing changes in their lives - many of then have simply doubled
their practices with no marketing!

Here are some of their perceptions:
-  "Wow! I really liked the communication style, the honesty and the love that was
    sent out to the patient"
-  "We've learned that our communication was lacking, our office consistency
    was...well...not there and our passion and drive was diminished. We have
    been on fire since Module I."
-  "We have already jumped with both feet and love the results we are
    having in our practice.
   Our energy  and love for what we do is skyrocketing."
-  "Dr. Ogi and Linda are warm, loving, and hands-on. I didn't feel like a failure
    learning this new way of doing things...more like a gold medalist who got her
    shoelaces tangled. Thank you both for everything. Module I was exactly what
    we were looking for and needed. We couldn't be happier!"
-  "I learned that I have the ability to be a greater chiropractor than I thought
    previously."
-  "I never intended to take another coaching program. After reading your Kids
    First column in the WCA Journal, I knew that you were the right fit for me."
-  "I really appreciated your research on Subluxation. It helped me shift my thinking!"
-  "I love the integrity of the Program! Not pushy, not fear based, no baloney.
     It is honest and ethical!"
-  "Thank you for sharing your wisdom $ knowledge with us and the chiropractic profession.
   Our profession would be in a much better position if this information was in more DC's hands!"
-  "I learned how to build trust and agreement. I also learned that I may not
    come across how I think I do"
-  "I love the personalized service and the fact that it is taught by someone
    who has been a raging success in a non-insurance dependant mode. "
-  "I really liked your approach. You're a nice guy with great communication skills."
-  "You're funny and educational - I feel enlightened and empowered! My staff
    could totally identify with you!"
-  "You talk the talk and walk the walk. I like that!"
-  "Great job. Thank you for being you. We all had a great time!"
-  "I learned to speak with confidence and conviction!"
-  "You genuinely care about patients, us, and Chiropractic!"
-  "I am overwhelmed with the things I've learned, but it's a good overwhelm!"
-  "I learned that I can have a very busy and successful practice."
-  "I loved new and amazing ways of communicating with patients! Laying
    out a plan of management that makes total sense was amazing to me!"
-  "I learned a new way to gain trust from a patient! You are most thorough!"
-  "I now have the tools necessary top have a successful practice."
-  "This is my first coaching program. Building a practice is fun and full of kids!"
-  "I knew you had something neat cooking there up north after hearing
    your interview with Dr. Gentempo and Dr. Christopher Kent and Tedd Koren's
    endorsement."
-  "I'm having a blast coming out of my shell!"

So...there you have it. I feel really flattered by all these wonderful comments!

The difficulty that I have is that there are a number of you still sitting out there
on the sidelines! Your practice is not where you want to be, you are not growing
at the rate you once envisioned, and this whole practice thing is beginning to
take on the look of a rut rather than a groove! ...And that is not Ok.

Practice was not meant to be a survival game - it is not a matter of scraping by. No.
You have an amazing gift in your hands - the problem is that you do not know
how to make your community know about what you do with honour and high ethics.
And this whole thing of continuously marketing your practice in order to survive
give you worms!

It is also not a matter of you wishing and hoping and praying, and dreaming. No.
It is a matter of action - with the right kind of coaching!
Learn how to be the best doctor in your community - it will be an honour to teach you!
I promise you this: I will never teach you anything that is not honest, or that
compromises your honour or integrity in any way - or that of your patients!
I teach no fear tactics at all, no BS, no games, no slick or gimmicky approaches,  
and no sales.

Many of you are thinking that you'd love to be one of those whose comments I
post after a module. Well ...you can be.  

I urge you to you visit my website (www.practiceevolution.com) and click on the
Practice Health Mini-Check up button if you have not already done so. 

Complete all the fields from your heart and click on the Submit button at the end.
I'll study your answers and see what challenges you are facing in your practice and
what monsters are hiding in your closet or under your bed that you may not be
aware of that may be stopping you.  We'll have a great chat on the phone and
I'll give you some suggestions and advice you can implement right away. We'll
simply de-monster your practice!
So...do it now before those dreaded Procrastination and Inertia diseases hit you!

Please don't let it pass you by.

Call me....I'm here to help you.

Warmest wishes,
Dr. Ogi Ressel
