Medical Director


“I am the Medical Director responsible for 57 providers in nine clinics. We developed specific steps based on this approach, and now I get way fewer complaints about patients showing up and creating chaos… because they want their med early, or pressuring the staff to drop everything for an unexpected crisis.

This program delivered specific steps and training to create a consistent procedure. We would not have been able to get there on our own, but we were shown the steps to take. Now all our doctors, all our clinics, and every member of our support staff rely on the huge progress we made. “

-Milton Curtis, MD
