Have you ever gone into a practice and thought to yourself..."this practice is so successful!? They've really got it all together.

We've posted a list of new 2012 Training Workshop locations on our website. Take a peek.  I'd like to take this time to say "Thank you" to all this year's doctors and staff workshop attendees and a special thanks to our very generous Sponsors whose support of  practice management education makes SOS Workshops possible!  It's about time you found out for yourself what everyone else is talking about! Listen to what attendee, Becksy Jurjo from NJ had to say:


It is definitely a learning experience. I would describe it as FUN and enjoyable; informative; every minute was accounted for! Straight to the point...no "passing the time." Honestly one of the best seminars/workshops I've attended so far. Thank you! It was very appreciated. 

 

Andy Warhol said, "They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself." Here's to YOUR new beginnings!  

 

Cheers!

What do you say to someone who calls asking for a reference regarding a former employee? If they left on good terms, you'll likely want to give him/her a glowing recommendation; however, if this individual was fired, a cautious response is in order!
While your first inclination may want to "tell all"...from a liability perspective, it's wise to stick to just providing them with your former employee's job, title and dates of employment to avoid a potential defamation suit. And if you do find yourself in a sticky position, always best to check with an employment attorney for further guidance.
