Most of us do not suffer from having too few clients, the problem is one of quality not quantity. And we will sometimes attempt to compensate by adding more clients.

If we are to build a lucrative clinic with patients who appreciate our work, we need to work at creating great patient relationships. These bonds are formed when we educate and find out what the patient cares about.  If the patient doesn’t care about a problem, chances are you haven't engaged them enough. This approach does a couple of things:
1. Find more of the treatments that patients need.
2. Find patients who want treatment.
3. Save time when the Dr is in the room - patient already engaged - has co-identified and “sees the problem”.
4. Build trust and rapport with patients.
5. Utilize the value of the technology we have invested financially in, in order to help more patients.
