Don’t base your value on time

Results - not time - are how to measure how effective your treatments are. Never base your rates in time.

I would take any mention of time OFF your website. If you want to include wording to the effect that an initial visit may be up to a certain amount of time, that’s one thing. But you aren’t an insurance company and your treatments should not be attached to a pre determined amount of time. That’s setting an expectation that you don’t want the patient to have

I had more happy patients when I spent less time with them but used skills that were much more effective.

Believe me, patients don’t want to be in your clinic for an hour or more. Unless you serve alcohol and food.

Caveat - you don’t need to spend 10 years learning how to be effective and deliver exceptional results. We have the training to get you there much faster.

@Exstoreman @JoshuaSwart Sorry, quick follow up on my post from a couple of weeks ago on pubic pain. Anthony, you mentioned a video in which you talk about treating the pudendal nerve. I have the majority of your recorded webinars and I cannot for the life of me find it in any of them. Do either of you guys happen to remember where that treatment is located? Thanks!

3 days Post Pelvic Fracture

Patient: 52-year-old male
Diagnosis: Pelvic fracture 3 days ago (confirmed on X-ray; image attached) opposite to prothesis.
Current Status: No orthopedic follow-up yet. Was advised to weight-bear immediately post-injury and has continued to do so within pain tolerance using assisstance. Although he is feeling unsure about appropriate activity levels and has a delay in talking with GP or ortho for a few more days. My thoughts are to get up and weight bare every hour or so to help with circulation within pain free levels, ankle pumps while resting, topical linaments... Any other thoughts or tips? @Exstoreman - also is the fracture just at that upper illiac region, or is there more?
