Physician Relations: We'll Help You Win Doctors' Hearts By Growing and Marketing Their Practices

By Stewart Gandolf, Chief Executive Officer

Physician Relations personnel often tell us that they share similar problems:

  • High-admitting doctors can be extremely demanding of hospital resources
  • When the hospital wants to recruit one or more doctors, candidates typically ask for the hospital's help to acquire patients
  • Once on board, new doctors often need a lot of help getting started
  • Many admitting doctors complain of the economic challenges they face everyday, and expect the hospital to save the day
  • Doctors - either solo practitioners or groups - may form an ASC to take away many of the hospital's most lucrative procedures - or worse, defect all together in order to compete
  • "Higher ups" in the hospital either fail to understand the value brought by the Physicians Relations Department, or conversely, realize its importance and therefore micro-manage it
  • Hospital marketing departments rarely have enough resources (staff or financial) to get involved with physician marketing
  • Legal and ethical issues can complicate hospital/ physician collaborations
  • In any event, Physician Relations budgets are almost always way too low to do everything that needs to get done

We may be able to help you solve some of these problems at little or no cost to the hospital

Our firm is dedicated to helping doctors grow their practices through ethical, evidence-based practice marketing.
