I noticed in the last 6 months a change in my work day and work flow when I started implementing a new habit -
what I noticed was that patient's started asking me more of those questions I WANTED them to ask! They started asking more things about what I thought about a certain tooth, any tips to be healthier, and in general just wanted my expertise and feedback which is like every doctor's wet dream lol. What was the change?
It was all in the way I started appointments, in particular the series of questions I started the appointments with that made all the difference. Tune in to hear which questions changed the game for me, built trust, and ultimately has made my work day so much better.
I also break down my recent lifestyle favs to get through the dead of winter + the 3 small talk news stories of the week!
