Understanding the impact the web has on everyday life, James Dreesen, CEO of Get New Patients, INC. reaches out to the vulnerability of the medical professional in the age of the world wide web. The exposure we all face is magnified when it pertains to our livelihood. The doctor, who gets an unfair or false review from a disgruntled employee or unscrupulous competitor can suffer financially.
With social networking and internet sites geared toward soliciting consumer feedback, medical practices can be unfairly tainted, adversely affecting potential referrals, new patient opportunities, and revenue. Some complaints, although legitimate are far removed from patient care. They can be about the office room wait, the parking, or the attitude of the staff.
