The tip is to ask for a review. When someone is happy, they don’t think of leaving a review. You have to ask by prompting the client for a review.  [4:53] Google is the search engine where you should spend your time and energy cultivating and responding to reviews. Facebook is no longer the preferred platform to use. Google is King. [14:10] There are legal reasons you should never apologize for a patient's bad experience in the office. Be very careful that you do not violate HIPAA laws.   RESOURCE LINKS People + Practice  - Website Leon - Email Amy - Email People + Practice - Email Jessie Pressman - Email People + Practice Blog - Jessie Pressman   BIOGRAPHY: NEW YORK, Oct. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- People + Practice LLC, a leading marketing agency specializing in strategic consulting and brand development for healthcare practices, is thrilled to announce the appointment of Jessie Pressman as Head of Consulting.
