On this week's episode of Rebuilding your Dental Passion Laura addresses your office/operatory and how you can use it to remind yourself of why you started your career and why you continue to come to work each day. She shares with us her experiences with peronalizing her operatory and how it fosters a connection with her patients!     Episode Highlights:   Personalizing your operatory Creating visuals for the bond with your patients Patient trust and its impact on treatment Laura's passion of the week   Quotes:    “We need to feel inspired by what's around us”     “ I added pictures and created a slideshow, not only for me, but for my patients to see”    “Set up your op in a way that reminds you of why you are coming to work every day and why you are working so hard, whether it's the fun adventures you take on your days off, the family you are supporting...anything to remind you why you need to maintain that dental passion”    “Y0u would be amazed how many conversations my pictures started, and how many of my patients felt more of a connection to me, as a person, rather than just their hygienist”    “It's one of the best things I felt I did to build a trusting relationship with my patients”    “The happier your patients are, the happy you are, and the happier they are, the more trusting of you they are, the more likely they are to say yes to treatment, which in turn makes the doctor happy and we all live happily ever after”    “If you can improve where you are, I always think that is better than moving on”   Links:   The Dental Podcast Network Channel One homepage: http://dentalpodcastnetworkchannelone.otcpn.libsynpro.com/   The Dental Podcast Network Channel Two homepage: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dental-podcast-networks-channel-two/id1478530429
