You’re not a real doctor
Have to be better in every regard. Better dressed, better office, better
outcomes.
Ozone allows for fantastic outcomes.

Ozone
Now we have covered the scientific bases of ozone therapy
Demonstration #1
All conference long
This is what ozone does
This is how it works
This is what you can expect
Patient promise
I have studied my whole life to bring you the most important healing
modality that I have ever seen.
“Be in the moment” with the patient
Bottom Line
It works.
Now, let’s concentrate on using it effectively
Demonstration #2
Have skit on closing the sale
Demonstrate in person – like a play?
Dr J gives the outline –
Alicia or Anna to close the deal
Show compliance – case fee acceptance
Implementation
1. What I wish I knew about running an
office
2. What clinical pearls I wish I knew when
I started using ozone
3. What makes ozone work better

Assumptions
Ozone works
Listen to the other presentations
*prolozone orientation video
Ozone works for everything.
I have no fear of using ozone for any condition
Ozone
Know your therapy
Ask for expectations – what do you want me to do
Patient expectations are much, much different than mine
It’s what the patient’s expectations
Ask for healing date – give the patient closure
Aristotle, socrate, plato . . . .
Pain relievers, aspirin, steroids – ozone trumps all of them.

Take off your clinicians hat
Put on your businessman hat
Like it or not, how you run your office (how good of businessman are you,
determines your clinical outcomes).
This is what I wish I learned
Hard Easy or Easy Hard
Implementation
Remove the confusion
You’re costing yourself money
Eliminate Confusion
Confusion interrupts clinical outcomes
Patient confusion
Knee replacement
Reocurring back pain
Financial Confusion – the big no no
Do not allow people to owe you money
because they will get embarrassed and
go somewhere else
Addressing finances in the first visit is
critical.
How to handle finances –
The big 5
What is wrong
What can Dr West do about it
How long will it take
How much will it cost
How can we make the pain not come
back?
Prostitute principle
The value of the service decreases
exponentially after the service is
rendered.
Patient Role Play
#1 – Belligerent patient – I am only here
because my wife wants me to be here. I
know you are witch doctor.
Option #1 – take away selling
Option #2 – why don’t you just give it a
try. (money back guarantee)
#2 – Mucho compliant patient
#3 – the resale patient
#4 – the case presentation patient
The void will always fill
Stop trying to please everyone
I only do business with people that want
to do business with me.
Ozone & Million Dollar Practice
I fully believe that everyone in this room
is or could be making a million dollars in
cash services.
Segue
Look the part
Image is everything
Know the PART
You’re a doctor first
No one cares about your initials
Turn weaknesses into strengths
Prostitute principle
SUPER HIGH INTENSITY THERAPY
KNOW YOUR S.H.I.T.
Question
How easy or how hard are you to do business with?
Do you have congestion or road blocks?
Do you have a greased chute?
Greased Pocatello Chute
Started in 2005
Successful in spite of myself
Six figure in injections
Six figure in injections every month.
Spent $2,500 in Shallenberger’s course, I figure at least $5,000,000 sine then
(20:1 ROI in 10 years).
Market cannot beat that
Question #2
Fish stink from the head down
Being the leader in your office
Bosses – tell you to do something by making you feel like a child
Leaders – inspires you to do something by making you feel excited.
Office Leadership
Train, train, train, train
Team meetings every morning for 30 minutes
Review every patient and what you are going to do for them (55)
Marketing Budgets
Take your marketing budget and put it into staff training
Treat your staff and your staff family members – pro bono
Hard Easy
Think about this . . .
I learned this new technique . . . .
I want to enhance my current technique
Break it down
What happens at each and every step
The events that occur when a NP calls your office
The events that occur on referral

Oxidative Medicine
Patient Goals
Make the patient a lifetime patient
Ozone helps every condition
Goal – make every patient unhappy going anywhere else
Get as much diagnostic data as possible on each patient
Holistic chiropractic
Do Superb Exception Work – do what other providers don’t do
Healing Date
90 days and then re-eval
GET MONEY FIRST
Refund money
Cash Flow
Collections
Inform patient prior to visit of expected fees
Have your “agent” negotiate for you
Back up – you have to know your fees cold
Back up #2 – you have to back up your agent
Follow the “I wish rule”
How will you handle today?
Cash or check or credit card?
Patient Value
The reward of helping someone that thought their lifestyle was over or has given
up hope is indescribable. There is more to life than $.
Put in business controls so that you can be in the moment with the patient
Do not allow bills, overhead, payroll, or taxes interfere with the patient experience.
Patient Value
Each patient is worth $15,000
Not to be fleeced
Ask the patient, if I could get your <throwing baseball with your grandson> back for
you, what would it be worth?
Begin with a thorough history- besides the primary complaint
This is where the money is. . . .
Think of the onion approach to health care
Life Time Patient 2
From the data revealed during consultation perform a comprehensive physical
evaluation (orthopedics) on all patients
Do the following on all patients
1. Blood chemistry profile
2. Imaging studies of area of “dragon”
3. Other diagnostic information
Obtain Objective Data- that’s where the “WOW” factor occurs
Life Time Patient 4
Always prepare:
1. Financial consultation
2. A written report of findings
3. A written treatment plan
4. A written payment plan
Written Report Example
Treatment Plan
Arthritis example
Life Time Patient 5
Offer all patients an opportunity to take a case fee treatment plan
What is a case fee treatment plan?
Put in example
Life Time Patient 5
Give all patients something to take home
Differentiate or die
1. Nutritional supplements (nuscriptions or Nx)
2. Exercises (low back, breathing, extremity)
3. Hot packs, cold soaks, or poultices
4. Ointments or salves
5. Special diets
Life Time Patient 6
Perform follow up exams (objective data) on a regular basis. You
want to achieve and maintain optimum health in your patients
Objective follows ups are in important

Life Time Patient 7
Perform follow up exams (objective data) on a regular basis. You want to
achieve and maintain optimum health in your patients
Prepare an appointment book and rigorously adhere to it. You will never be able
to maximize your patient services if you fail to do this. You must control your
time or it will control you.

Staffing
Staffing
Train your staff well
Conduct meetings at least three times a week
Front desk
AR / Billing
Back office / therapy
Institute a monthly profit sharing plan for your staff.
Marketing Procedures
Internal Procedures
Summarize each visit to the patient
1. What was wrong
2. Can we (patient + doctor) fix it?
3. How long will it take?
4. How much will it cost?
Marketing Procedures
Internal Procedures – Phone calls
Call each patient that first night
Document any questions, concerns or comments
Especially “new” instructions
Call one week later
Are you better same or worse
Call every 6-8 weeks
Checking up on you, I made a commitment to your health and I WILL help you or I will
find someone that can.
Welcome to My Practice
Internal Procedures – Literature
1. Welcome to my practice letter
2. Birthday notes (NOT CARDS)
3. Thank you letter for referrals (Make sure to ask for referrals)
4. Send monthly newsletter
5. Send thank you cooperation and favorable response to treatment
Welcome to My Practice
External Marketing1. Give the elevator pitch – what is your differentiation
2. Network, network, network
In Closing
In every endeavor, there is a fine line between outstanding success and mediocrity.
The difference between a person who is a great acheiver and the average provider
is that the average provider is simply too lazy to do the little things, that the
outstanding provider does. This is what makes the difference between success and
mediocrity.
I am not the smartest, I am not the most talented, but I may be the most stubborn.
Do what others don’t do to have what
others don’t have.
Putting It All Together

Clinical Pearls
Dr Jason West – AAOT 2014
Shoulder
Thoroughly evaluate the shoulder
Shoulder example #1 - rotator cuff
Always do the joint
Always surround the dragon – shoulder isolation
Shoulder pearl #1 – Pec major insertion
Shoulder pearl #2 – Spinal accesory nerve
Shoulder pearl #3 – Dorsal scapular nerve
Shoulder pearl #4 – bicipital insertion on radius
Knee Pearls
If you didn’t get the slosh, you didn’t hit a home run.
Consider a medial or lateral approach
Superior lateral approach via US guidance is the best
After 5 attempts, if no imporvement you are missing the referral pattern
SI joint
Hip joint
L/S joint
Ankle Pearls
Inject the “pit of despair”
Injection medial tibio-talar joint
Plantar fasciitis
Achilles – add superficial D5W
Consider manipulation of the proximal fibular joint
