You don\u2019t need a lecture.\u00a0 It would just be good to talk with someone who has been there before and survived, or better, thrived.<\/p>\n<p>Let me introduce Dr. Tom Potisk.\u00a0 He is not the overbearing charming salesman type of a doctor that you often see in consulting programs.\u00a0\u00a0 Actually, not too many doctors are really like that.\u00a0 In fact, most doctors are very similar to Dr. Tom.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Tom and Dave, Phyllis and myself have been discussing an additional ingredient to practice success that that we feel doctors need. Simply, another doctor to talk to.\u00a0 They have us, of course. But we are managers and marketers and practice builders.\u00a0 That is our specialty.\u00a0 And we too have been there and done that, since the 1980&#8217;s.\u00a0 But as managers &#8211; not as doctors.<\/p>\n<p>We feel doctors need both for practice success: a professional manager to help build a profitable and self sustaining business AND the support and perspective of a professional, experienced chiropractor.<\/p>\n<p>So we are very happy to partner with Dr. Tom Potisk in providing services to our wonderful wonderful clients.<\/p>\n<p>We are pleased to announce that Dr. Tom will be giving a number of presentations at our upcoming seminars this year.\u00a0 One of the classes will be on <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Doctor to Doctor: Reclaiming the Joy of Practice<\/span>.\u00a0 This is his basic theme: how, as a doctor, you can truly enjoy each day doing what you do as a doctor.\u00a0 His approach is simply &#8211; doctor to doctor. Not as a coach, but as a fellow doctor who has been through what you are going through and made it to the other side \u2013 very successfully.<\/p>\n<p>Listen to this his first teleclass you &#8211; you will find it very motivating and reassuring.<\/p>\n<p>Hope to &#8220;see&#8221; you there,<\/p>\n<p>Ed<\/p>\n<p>Here is what others have said who have listed to his full presentation:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDr. Tom&#8217;s program was fantastic!
