"I want to share amazing value with you! Dr John's Business Clinic is a tool that will give your staff meetings form and direction for the next 36 weeks for less than $7.00 a week . Where else can you go to come up with the most impactful questions along with proven and tested answers to problems and procedures that we face in clinic every day? This tool is a "must have" resource guide for you and your staff that will take your staff meetings to the next level providing preparation and procedures that can be put in place immediately following discussion.

My staff has marveled at the simplicity and consistent application principles found in the Business Clinic materials. Take advantage of this opportunity now and continue to build on the momentum of the last great idea you put to work in your practice."

“I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Dr John's Business Clinic for Health Professionals. As I am time poor, the six CD set that comes with the manual was very convenient to listen to while driving to work.

I found it interesting that most of the difficulties that I have experienced with patients and staff over the past 20 years are identified in the album. The topics discussed are easily related to an Optometry practice.

I have attended numerous inadequate short courses on practice management and communicating with patients. I always felt that there wasn't enough substance to these courses and subsequently, the good ideas were never acted upon. With Dr John's program I felt that there was plenty of meat in the sandwich and the reference manual helps to jog the memory along.”

" The package fills the void perfectly between the intensive academic course and the inevitable lull before further intellectual stimulation .

Dentistry is a peculiar profession. We lock ourselves away in our 4m X 4m surgery with most patients seeking instant resolution of their concerns often combined with unrealistic aesthetic expectations .We endlessly ponder and experiment with new materials and techniques and punish ourselves with the latest infection control procedures. We discuss with our colleagues why after decades of practice do we still find dentistry so demanding and stressful.

Professional health care practice in 2005 is not easy . Dentistry has some wonderful, inspirational and free spirited lecturers such as Gordon Christensen who nurture us clinically and emotionally with statements such as “ I will not teach you anything that is not better, easier, quicker and more successful than what you are currently doing”.

We always leave the course with some hints and new techniques. We are equally well served with a series of practice management gurus who will entertain us for a day but have little tasting influence.

Dr John Hinwood has released a 6 CD set and a very comprehensive workbook titled Dr John's Business Clinic: For Health Care Practitioners.

A touch of cynicism quickly disappears when you start listening to the CD's.

The relevance to dental practice is uncanny. The “we are not alone” concept is very reassuring and the “Australianizing” and topicality is very refreshing.

You quickly realize that John is a very experienced practitioner and exceptionally gifted presenter who has so much to offer us in enhancing all aspects of our personal and professional lives. There are so many “gems” and “casting of pearls” it is almost impossible to single out any one aspect for special merit.

The package fills the void perfectly between the intensive academic course and the inevitable lull before further intellectual stimulation. I highly recommend Dr. John's Business Clinic for all practitioners who strive for the best for their patients, staff and themselves. It is self- paced enjoyable learning at the highest level. "

"Just a slight shift of thinking created extremely useful energy instead of frustration!

As Veterinarians we have been taught that we should be able to do everything, and that would also include running our practices. The problem is that we usually do not get any training at all in running a practice, and often it becomes too hard to juggle all the demands that are placed on us. In the end we just do what we have always done, just treading water, without having any sense of direction.

Three years ago I expressed this sense of frustration to my accountant. He said that most of his successful clients have had practice coaching with Dr John Hinwood , who is a chiropractor, but now specializes in practice development. Dr John has helped me refocus, re-energize, and enjoy practice a lot more. Many of the day to day problems and hassles that I encounter in my professional life, I now realize are not my doing, but are ubiquitous to all practitioners. To help more health professionals, John Hinwood has recorded some of his ideas and thoughts onto CDs.

Dr John's Business Clinic For Health Care Practitioners has been recently released and it comprises a 6 CD set containing 36 topics, with an extensive, easy to use workbook. Some of the topics include Adjusting your Communication, Acknowledging Clients and Gratitude, Telephone Techniques, X-raying the wallet, Never be Booked Out, Team Member Qualities and Hiring, The Way the World Sees Me, Key Elements of Business Management. Each of these topics contains gems from Dr John's wealth of experience from his own practice and also from the many practitioners that he has coached. Although Dr John is a chiropractor, nearly all of the topics that are discussed are directly applicable to the Veterinary Profession.

I have gained so much from listening to the CDs. I listen to them in the car as I drive to and from work, and we have used the CDs in staff meetings. Recently we needed to replace a team member, so my team listened to the topic of hiring. Using the ideas that were discussed in this section on the CD, our team worked out what sort of new team member our practice needed. This made the process of hiring so much easier. However more importantly it made the team members feel more valued as they were involved in the selection process, and most importantly my team members reflected on how valuable they were to the practice. Normally hiring a new team member would be a huge hassle, now it became a valuable team building exercise. Just a slight shift of thinking created extremely useful energy instead of frustration .

It is important to realize that not all the topics, ideas and discussions are easy and sweet. Dr John's style is designed to challenge you, and to make you think more rather than having done what we always have done, just treading water without any sense of direction. However, as Veterinarians I feel that we need to think out of the square, look at things differently, and experience practice differently. So some of the concepts can be confronting to start with, some of the ideas and situations that are discussed are almost out of Fawlty Towers . One example that comes to mind is one extremely busy chiropractor throwing a patient out of the waiting room for messing up his carpet. However these stories and experiences are very valuable in helping us to connect to the real agenda of clinic practice. I can readily recommend Dr John's Business Clinic For Health Care Practitioners for Veterinarians "

“ John Hinwood is an Australian chiropractic icon. His powerful and passionate presence has motivated untold chiropractors and their teams to do more with their lives and practice. John's drive and decisiveness has created a stronger profession."

"Implementing the staff thank-yous has done wonders for team morale and a happier work environment.

Thanks for the opportunity to review the material on The Gold Edition Dr John's Business Clinic for Health Care Practitioners. The format of telling short stories is fantastic as I could really relate and understand what you were communicating to your audience and especially to me. There were many pearls of wisdom and the following I'm looking at implementing.

•  Wine and Cheese – VIP Day – look after my top 10% referrers

•  Thanking my staff more often

•  Use the confrontational box

•  Give out Expect A Miracle cards

These are very simple yet easily implemented systems into any podiatry business.

I have only lightly touched your material and will be going over it again and again as there are so many wonderful ideas to implement.

I highly recommend your years of wisdom to any podiatrist or other health care practitioner who wants success, an edge over their competitors and a better quality of life.

Thanks again John!"

“ No doubt you are familiar with the adage about medical practitioners of "Good Doctor: Poor Businessman", and I am no exception. For many years I worked long hard hours meeting patient's needs and letting the business look after itself, always believing my business success was measured solely by the number of patients I saw and the revenue this generated.

More recently, and especially following an episode of illness where I was unable to work for a number of months, the value of a leveraged business with trusted, reliable, autonomously motivated support staff has impacted my reality in a major way. We now have a multidisciplinary integrated health and wellness practice and have implemented regular staff/team training workshops, wherein we discuss and introduce concepts and ideas from Dr John's Business Clinic programme, which are pertinent to our personal and business development at the time.

The value and benefits of this program are beginning to unfold in all areas of our existence and especially in our interpersonal communications. A major undercurrent of benefit to our practice has been the acknowledgement and praise which we direct to our staff and team members. When delivered in a focused and sincere way the flow on benefits to the individual and ultimately to our clients is significant and highly valued. The team spirit and interaction at our meetings is highly cooperative and enthusiastic, we have an air of positive expectancy about the possible value of the next concept that we discuss from the 36 on offer from Dr John's programme.

I can feel the pressure easing day by day .

With kind regards,

Alan Hadley.

“ This is an outstanding compilation of ideas to increase your focus in practice.

Whether you are starting out in practice or looking to take your practice to a new level, Dr John's Business Clinic For Health Care Practitioners is an invaluable resource to assist you in achieving your goals . The package is a well presented 6 CD set with a fully transcribed workbook. I found the workbook especially helpful in exploring the material in a greater depth and there is certainly plenty of depth in the material.

A wide range of topics are covered including marketing, communication skills, office management and human resources. In reviewing the material, it is difficult to do justice to the wide range of points which are dealt with. Dr John Hinwood draws from his 28 years of experience as a practitioner and also as a coach, mentor and consultant to thousands of practitioners throughout the world. The result is an outstanding compilation of ideas to increase your focus in practice and allow you to better serve your patients.

There is a strong theme throughout the material of improving your patient relationships by serving them better . Whether it be through a greater present time consciousness or adopting an attitude of gratitude, there are loads of tips to improve your relationships with the people you serve each day. Dr John also intersperses his great advice with plenty of humor which is most welcome.

One of my favorite segments was Double Your Business Now . In this piece, Dr John passes on the key 20 points that he used with one of his clients to drastically improve her practice. There are certainly some gems in these 20 points and you are called upon to analyse your business to determine the key things you could be doing to drastically improve your practice.

I enjoyed listening to the CD's and like any good information, each subsequent sitting bought our fresh perspectives, I can happily recommend this material as a great way to take your practice to a new level of service and success.”

“Dr John's Business Clinic for Healthcare practitioners includes six CDs and a transcribed workbook full of ideas from the practical to the philosophical. The system is packaged in small chunks such that one group of ideas can readily be absorbed and considered either individually or by all members of the practice collectively. With 36 different topics on the six CD Gold Edition you will find information that traverses all aspects of modern daily clinical practice. The accompanying workbook is structured to encourage individual consideration of the points raised, personalization of the material and the application specific steps toward invigorating the practice. The brainstorming of each topic with clinical partners, associates and assistants would create an extremely productive basis for staff meetings. One can easily adapt one topic for 36 weeks to create action steps that would dramatically impact on the performance, value and the level of care provided to your patients.

Dr John's style appears to be designed to require the reader/listener to confront their complacency. This is a rather difficult challenge to overcome for many of us in private practice. The workbook challenges the clinician to systematically identify self limiting thoughts, phrases and behaviors then to define action steps to rise above them . This material would find particular relevance when a clinic has reached a ‘plateau' in its growth or during transitional phases; starting a new clinic, taking on new staff or semi retirement of the principle practitioner. Dr John's advice and anecdotes lend themselves to ready translation into many clinical situations. The reader is encouraged to define critical points, prescribe action steps with a timeline and to hold them self accountable for the changes they wish to see. This material may be seen as a personal growth manual or as a business systems workbook depending on the inclination of the reader. There are no cookie cutter solutions here. Whether the goals are personal, financial or service driven, Dr John's Business Clinic is designed to par away the distractive and the destructive and encourage the implementation of systems and strategies for vibrant, dynamic, powerful practices.

Recently Dr John's Business Clinic was listed by the Australian Institute of Management (AIM) as a recommended training tool that will enhance business practices. In a relatively short period of time this has been rated as the number ONE must have product for health care practitioners . Why wait and delay the inevitable. I recommend this work to my graduating students and field practitioners as I often imagine that if I had access to the sound and well tested business tools that Dr John has to offer when I started practice years ago, I would have realized more of my potential earlier. This package has the potential to invigorate our profession one clinic at a time.”
