Giving Disruptive Docs
A Second Chance
How do you deal with disruptive
docs? Cut your losses, toss 'em
overboard and move on? That's
one approach, but what if there
were a way to rehabilitate them
— to turn poison into poise and
preserve the relationship?
Psychiatrist Kent Neff, MD,
FAPA, a noted lecturer and
workshop leader throughout
North America, is an expert on
managing disruptive behavior.
He'll explain how to influence
physician behavior, establish
respectful workplaces and
manage change. Register now
at orexcellence.com to see Dr.
Neff and other great speakers,
Oct. 11-13 at the Red Rock
Casino Resort in Las Vegas.
Don't miss the program on
p. 37 of this issue.
