Summary
If attracting new patients were really the solution…most dermatology practices wouldn't be struggling the way they are. Because the real challenge isn't getting patients in the door. It's getting them to come back. Today's episode is about the second visit problem — and why it's one of the most overlooked growth barriers in dermatology. A special thank you to GentleCure from SkinCure Oncology for sponsoring The Distinctive Dermatologist. Their commitment to helping practices deliver the Ultimate Customer Experience® reflects today's message perfectly: Growth doesn't come from more first visits. It comes from stronger relationships that lead to the second… and the third… and the fourth. It's an important topic on this week's edition of The Distinctive Dermatologist.
