Description: Are you worried about receiving complaints from unhappy patients and their grievances going further? Do you sometimes mismanage your thinking and let complaints or a fear of getting them in your practice, ruin your day? Would you feel happier, knowing what to do when a patient complains and knowing how to stop these events from occurring in the first place? Would you agree that people, especially your patients enjoy doing business with those they like know and trust? Would it be reasonable to assume that patients who trust you, tend to spend more money and confide more openly in consultation, making the job of case presentation sometimes a little easier? And…Do you think that dental professionals with these skills feel more confident in their ability to communicate, collaborate and connect, so that they can win trust and stand out amongst their colleagues and with their patients? Would you be interested in more of these skills yourself, right now? Join us in Taunton, where Anthony Asquith will encourage all dental team members to practice from a position of increased confidence and control, especially in difficult and often pressurised situations. By attending you can start to turn what is usually seen as an adverse event into something more positive to help your business grow and thrive.
