Quotes From the Intro Lecture
"Factually speaking, you don’t need biomechanics to practice – that is do surgery, wound care or make shoes and orthotics. You don’t need us to practice either - But I can show you how to have more fun and make more money and have happier patients in your practice by applying a few simple principles that allow you to precisely correlate their mechanics with their chief complaint. After the paperwork, this is the next step towards prediction and becoming a mechanics expert."
"When you say to your patient, “lets try this”, or “come back in two weeks if it's not working” - that erodes confidence in peoples minds. If you could say to that person, that you are going to be minimally fifty to eighty percent better in about a month and a half, and in that month and a half time you are going to get two office visits where you are not going to have to do bullet points and take their blood pressure and weigh them… Why do you have to waste both your and staff time when all the patient wants is the confidence to know that you are going to fix them."
"Mastering the ability to predict is of course opposed to situations where you weren’t sure - you weren’t sure what the outcome would be and at what point they would respond or be done with your services. Ultimately you had to wait for the patient to tell you how they were. This protocol tells you how they are each step of the way."
“You don’t stress over a P&A, you don’t stress over hammertoes and neuromas, you don’t stress over an ulcer because you know exactly what to do. What if I told you that there is a tie in for every one of those conditions and that you would know - with total confidence - ahead of time who was who - who was easy and who was hard – by applying our system and increasing your ability to predict by seeing beforehand exactly how their mechanics will affect what you are going to offer them as a treatment modality.”
"And if you could connect the dots between what the person wanted to accomplish, and what you knew the problem was, and what you could actually provide them – and you could do it quickly and easily and get consistently great results… you would truly be a mechanics expert!"
"With respects to Predictability, we have developed a protocol on how to evaluate your patients in a way that makes your surgery and your wound care, and your palliative care and your orthotics more effective. We have a template that you can lay over your existing practice that will improve all of these aspects. Wouldn’t you like to have a practice where things were more fun, and you made more money, and you had more referrals? Well here is how you do that."
"So what exactly is a mechanics expert? You need to be able to figure out what your patients need. See what it is that they are talking about.You need to be able to connect the dots between what their issues are and what the solutions are that you are able to offer.And then you need to know ahead of time whether it is going to work. And this is done by being able to Predict. A Mechanics Expert can Predict how things will go before they even offer any given Modality or Service to their patient.
You literally stack the deck for success when you can, with confidence – predict!"“What if you had something in your paperwork where the patient would tell you exactly what to say to them to make them buy a pair of orthotics, whether the insurance company paid for them or not? And what if you could watch the patient walk down the hallway and see the only two things that you needed to see to let you know whether you should make this person a pair of orthotics, offer this person surgery, whether you were going to have an easy time with wound care? What if you could watch the person walk down the hallway and instantly know whether this patient was going to be a slam dunk, or a train wreck, or more importantly, the people that are in the middle? Because, for the most part, that’s what walks through our doors; the people that are in the middle – and being able to consistently make these people better, in and of itself allows you to expand your existing practice by initially adding no additional patients to your schedule. Prediction and the Confidence that comes from that prediction causes you to do and offer more of the services you provide to more of your existing patients. And this Prediction starts with what you get your patients to tell you with your paper work.”
"This system shows you how to manipulate any given patient’s mechanics in a way that it always directly addresses and affects beneficially their Chief Complaint. And it’s done in large, dramatic and tangible ways which yield profound results that ultimately makes your patients tell other people that you are THE doctor to go to for help!"
"Once you knew that it was going to work… what if I showed you a way that you could easily manipulate peoples gait with a pair of orthotics… that you could get paid for - that the person would like so they would refer you more people? We have developed a system that will tell you exactly what to say to any patient and it will drastically increase your orthotic results, in a way that will generate orthotic referrals."
"From a Clinical standpoint, we have defined the end point of everything that you do in practice – be it Surgery, Wound Care, Orthotics or Shoes. And once we show it to you, you won't even have to think about it. Once you know that the endpoint of care is something that you can easily define and see, you will always be able to recognize it."
