Does Your Patient Know You Can Get Them Better?

It may seem like a simple question, but it's something we often overlook.  Does our patient really know that we can get them better?Have we said it explicitly?  "I can get you better....this is not your life....we've seen this before....we can help you...."We often think we're saying this by telling them how everything is interconnected.  That we've been able to reproduce their symptoms.  That we have found things on the initial evaluation related to their complaints.But does that actually translate to the patient understanding we can help?And if we aren't doing this, why?  Is it because we just forget when we get excited in their evaluation and are diving into the weeds?  Is it because we aren't really confident we can help?  Is it because of our philosophy (I'm just their coach, they will heal themselves...)?If you are feeling conflicted about actually telling your patients "you will get better here," it's something we need to sit with, understand why, and take action on.Because our patients deserve to know they have hope and are in the right place.Pelvic PT Rising Business Mentorship - Apply by June 1st!For the first time in over a year we are offering new spots in our Business Mentorship to cash-based pelvic health providers!  Our mentees on average have doubled their case load and increased revenue by over $125,000 in the first year of working with us!  We've filled almost 40 spots in the cohort with an amazing group of pelvic health practitioners - for more information or to apply, visit www.pelvicptrising.com/mentoring.Shout Out and Get in Touch!If you're enjoying the podcast, please take a few seconds to take a screenshot and put it up in your Instagram Stories and tag Nicole (@nicolecozeandpt).  Or send us an email at [email protected] with your thoughts, questions or ideas.  We'd love to hear from you!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded PelvicSanity Physical Therapy together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.  They run Pelvic PT Rising, providing both clinical and business resources exclusively tailored to pelvic PTs.Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email ([email protected]).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
