			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Want to know why your patients disappear?  You thought you had a good relationship and now you realize you haven’t seen them in over a year – What happened?</p>
<p>The #1 reason patients leave your practice is not because of a bad result.</p>
<p>…….It’s because of your indifference.</p>
<p>They are being ignored by you so they don’t feel compelled to return.</p>
<p>Make your patients feel your concern for them and their welfare by keeping in touch with them and reaching out to them continually.</p>
<p>I promise you <span style="text-decoration: underline;">– they want to hear from you!</span></p>
<p>You most likely have a database full of prospective patients who came in for a consultation but didn’t book, who came in a couple of times and then wandered off and then those you haven’t seen in months or years.</p>
<p>I guarantee – <span style="text-decoration: underline;">they did not stop wanting to look good.</span></p>
<p>They just went somewhere else where they are treated better.</p>
<p><strong>Where Did Your Patients Go?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>-Perhaps they were having a bad day when they visited and couldn’t connect with your staff.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>-Perhaps your staff was having a bad day and scared them off.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>-Perhaps they got sticker shock.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>-Perhaps they went to your competitor and want to return to you but are too embarrassed.</li>
</ul>
<p>You are never going to know unless you reach out to them. Because……</p>
<p>There’s even a good chance they were not saying no –</p>
<p>They were simply saying “Not Yet” or “Not Now”.</p>
<p>Since it’s always faster, cheaper and easier to reconnect with patients who have visited you before than it is to attract total strangers to your practice, reconnect with these patients.</p>
