Patients don’t leave practices because of clinical care. They leave because of how they’re treated.

In fact, in a study of more than 35,000 patients, 96% said their biggest frustration had nothing to do with the doctor—it was poor front-desk service.

Your front desk sets the tone for the entire patient experience. Every phone call, check-in, question, delay, or difficult interaction shapes how patients feel about your practice. Without the right skills, even well-intentioned staff can unintentionally create frustration, anger, and distrust—pushing patients to look elsewhere. And the cost is real.

Replacing an existing patient is far more expensive than keeping one. When patients walk away due to front-desk breakdowns, your practice loses revenue, referrals, and reputation—often without realizing why. The good news? These patient service “disasters” are preventable.

In this focused 60-minute online training, nationally recognized patient service expert Tracy Bird will show your front-desk team exactly how to deliver calm, confident, and professional service—even in high-pressure situations.

This is practical, immediately usable training designed for real front-desk environments—not theory.
