There's no doubt that medical practices are busy. Physicians have incredibly limited time, and administrative staff members often wear many hats. However, attracting a steady stream of new patients, enhancing the experience for current patients, and improving brand perception are more important than ever. Effective marketing is essential for any business, and medical practices are no exception!
