The Power of the Question … How to Move Your Patients from Denial to Action
by Mary Osborne
In spite of our best efforts to educate patients about the need for dental care, many patients delay and avoid treatment that we know can help them. We struggle to understand what gets in their way, and how to motivate them to take action. We sometimes get tired of being seen as the person with the bad news, rather than someone who wants to help. This course will help you become a better listener in your personal—as well as professional—life. It will challenge your assumptions and offer you language that is both authentic and powerful. It will help you develop long-term, trusting relationships with your patients. It will also allow you to close the gap between what they think they want from you, and what you know you can do for them.
