NEW EXCITING CHANGES AT DR. SCHINDLER’S

OFFICE

I saw the previous slide on Facebook. Anyone who knows me knows that the part that my mom , society and the government think I do is very very far from what I really do.

Although I might think I am as smart as House. I know I have a MUCH better bedside manner than he does and I do not have a drug problem.

I think I am more of a mix of him, and the next two pictures.

Marcus Welby MD was a TV show when I was a child which he was a kind, warm, friendly , caring doctor who knew his patients well. Sadly enough there has not been another doctor portrayed like that since then.

Standard American Doctor

Average 7.5 minutes with each patient.

They see an average of 30 patients a day.

They are in a large group .

They have someone on call who may or may not know who you are and are more likely to send you to the Emergency Room.

Most do not email, text, give you their cell phone number, come in after hours to see you if necessary.

It is not their fault !

We all know the medical system is broken !

It is designed for fast pace, volume driven and half the visit is taken up by documentation required by insurance as well as lawyers. (whether paper or computer)

My Previous Level of Care

1. I scheduled for 20min for usual visits and spend an average of 30 min.

2. I received emails, text messages, and everyone has access to my cell phone afterhours.

3. I listened to my patients , I know my patients, we work together to get an individual plan for them!

4. I go the extra mile for all my patients , and they all know that and appreciate it !

5. I find alternative and cutting edge ideas .

Its time to be SMARTER !

I want to go BEYOND Standard of Care !!

I want to go even BEYOND my level of care !

That takes an investment of Time.

I want to be able to continue or improve taking the time you should have/need/want and keep it so there is virtually no waiting!

I want to have extra time to investigate even more new cutting edge ideas and new alternative ideas that go beyond standard of care.

you, takes the time with you, respects your time and the extra years of better health that may

lead to.
