A patient's journey should account for all of the touch points they go through in their search for care, research, social media, testimonials, pre-visit and then during their scheduled appointment and treatment.A patients journey once they arrive at your clinic can be split in four phases. A) arrival at the clinic and check-in, B) the waiting room, C) the treatment itself, D) post-visit: the ethical treatment retention phase.Guidence from a health expert is what patients really, really want and this is a process that needs to be fully mapped on in your detailed clinic handbook. BEST MOMENTS “Don’t use the dreaded words “see how you go”.
