Review
"Written for both the new graduate and/orthe experienced chiropractor wanting to convert to a cash practice, this new book is full of witty advice penned in a concise, conversational style. Though it can easily be finished in one sitting, the invaluable tips and practical knowledge packed within will encourage multiple readings...Overall, this book is highly recommended and should be required reading for any practitioners who dream of a cash practice. Students (whether considering the cash route or not) will find this book an invaluable asset that they will return to time and again while building their practice. Finally, dont't let the small size fool you! One of the repeated themes emphasized in the book and in the Abblett's practice is, or course, simplicity. And it is in this simple, yet effective way that the ..Survival Guide is bound to save many a lost soul seeking solutions to practice dilemmas." -- Dec. 1998 Lifelines, Life College of Chiropractic-West

A MUST READ for every chiropractor,
By Ed Roberts (Hayward, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cash Practice New Practice Survival Guide (Paperback)
Terry and David Abblett have a thriving Cash practice in the Concord, CA area. With most of their practice pre-paying for their chiropractic care A/R's are a thing of the past. The patients are happy to be able to walk in get adjusted and walk out without worrying about bringing money each time. The book also provides valuable practical information they have learned over the years. There is a large form section in the back with an explanation of how they use each one. Yes, it is a quick read, but that just means you can read it again and again. After watching his office during the busy part of the day he has proven that having a cash practice is no problem and very profitable. I plan on utilizing everything this book says in my practice. Enjoy & believe it!!

He Practices What He Preaches!,
By Todd L. Reese (San Leandro, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cash Practice New Practice Survival Guide (Paperback)
After reading Dr. Abblett's book, I decided to visit his office to see if his book was fact or fiction. Was he just an author writing about the perfect practice or was he living it? Many skeptics in the field of chiropractic say that it is difficult or impossible to survive in a cash practice. They say that people will not come into your office if they have to pay more than a $5 dollar copay. Dr. Abblett proves all the naysayers wrong by having a thriving cash practice that is continuing to grow. While visiting his office, I could tell that he was genuinely happy that I was there and was very open about his business practices. The book gave me the attitude that a cash practice is a realistic goal that is very attainable. Please read his book and see for yourself.

Good start for the new Chiropractor,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cash Practice New Practice Survival Guide (Paperback)
Being a New Chiropractor, looking to bypass the downward fall of the managed care system, I was pleased with the information obtained from this reader friendly guide. It gave me a starting point in which to research further into all aspects of beginning a cash practice from scratch. The authors are even available for further assistance and have directed me to cash practices in my area to contact. They've been of great help. I recommend this book to all new Chiropractors looking to venture into private practice.
