Doctors Examine The Art Of Marketing

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 16, 2009 -
So many doctors are struggling right now. The lack of new and/or paying patients is the direct result of the economy. In an article in USA Today,  entitled 21% of Americans scramble to pay medical, drug bills by Liz Szabo and Julie Appleby, it says, “As the economy fell, the percentage who reported having trouble paying for needed health care or medicines during the previous 12 months rose from 18% in January 2008 to 21% in December, according to the poll of 355,334 Americans. Each percentage point change in the full survey represents about 2.2 million people, says Jim Harter, Gallup's chief scientist for well-being and workplace management.”
Doctors know that referrals make the best new patients. Dr. Len Schwartz, President of Pro 2 Pro Network (http://www.pro2pronetwork.com), one of the largest professional-to-professional referral networks in North America says, “Most doctors would love to help more people by working closely with other doctors in their community but don’t know how to initiate the relationship process. That’s where our Pro 2 Pro Network and Automatic Practice Builder™ Service comes in.”
    Pro 2 Pro Network offers doctors/specialists a chance to connect to discuss the possibility of a mutually beneficial referral relationship. These meetings are pre-screened and pre-qualified so both parties know what to expect from the first meeting. The service also includes high level coaching to ensure that their efforts are predictably successful.


Editor Note: Pro 2 Pro Network President Dr. Len Schwartz is available for interviews.
