How to Attract Patients? Build Trust

Jane recently asked me for some ideas for getting into her potential patients’ minds and earning their trust.

It’s a great question, one I get asked frequently. Trust is a critical element in attracting new patients and increasing acceptances. Why?

It turns out, lack of trust is the biggest barrier to bringing in new patients. Without having experienced the professionalism of your team, much less the outcome you provide, they don’t trust you… yet.

In order to connect with that potential patient, you must create a way for them overcome the trust barrier. The easiest way to do that is to lower the barrier or simply remove it.

Something you can do quite simply with referrals.

When a friend of a potential new patient refers them to you, or their primary care physician refers them to you – it’s like a gift. The potential patient already trusts you and wants to make a purchase from you. Well, not a 100%, but instead of starting at 10% trust, they are typically closer to 90%.

Most referrals arrive pre-sold on your expertise and your recommendations. Which dramatically increases the chances they’ll walk out the door with a new pair of hearing aids from your practice instead of from one of your competitors.

Yet for most practices, referrals are like an occasional surprise gift or like a passing rain shower on a hot day, a random event. Which is true they only happen on occasion — unless you have a system, a proven referral system.

With a proven system for generating referrals from patients and physicians, you can generate a steady shower of referrals just like an automatic sprinkler system does for your lawn. And you can see dramatic and steady growth of your practice.
