Product Description
So much of a medical organization s success rides on the leadership, conduct, and performance of its physicians. How does a health care organization engage its physicians to lead by example? And how does a physician in the midst of 25 appointments, 30 phone messages, hospital rounds, and the details of managing a clinical practice do what needs to be done to foster satisfaction and loyalty among patients? Practicing Excellence eloquently answers these questions. Stephen C. Beeson, MD, has created a brilliant guide to implementing physician leadership and behaviors that will create a high-performance workplace built on collaboration, commitment, purpose, and making a difference in the lives of the patients it serves.

 Outstanding Guide February 9, 2008

Hardwiring Excellence is the best guide I have read regarding management in a healthcare environment. Quint Studer uses personal examples to illustrate the principles. This is a practical book that gives prescriptive advice on how to improve the culture within your own group. The goal of these interventions is to create an outstanding environment for patients, employees and physicians. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in improving their healthcare environment.
A Must Read for Everyone who gives or receives medical care! October 7, 2007
Dr. Beeson is meticulously thorough in describing the care every patient should be receiving every day from every healthcare professional. In reading this book, I found myself making notes in the margins and highlighting several excerpts that I found especially useful. I could not put it down until I had read it cover to cover. This book NEEDS to be read and MUST be followed in order for physicians to perform at their true potential. If all physicians followed Dr. Beeson's words of wisdom, we would likely see a drastic decline in litigation, and a suprising increase in patient satisfaction.
Something For Everyone in Healthcare--A Must Read!!! September 24, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is a must read for any physician or healthcare leader that wants to improve the connection they have with their patients, increase patient retention and loyalty, attract and recruit new business, and improve the quality, safety, and service in how healthcare is delivered. The book is well written and easy to read with practical tips that can be used right away. The one reviewer's comments about this applying to only new or beginning physicians misses an important point. While some of the tips may seem like common sense and basic professionalism, they are surprisingly absent from a lot of healthcare systems and practices. The beauty of the book is that it connects you back to those fundamental principles that can get lost in the day to day, but which our patients value and actually need in order to support the best possible outcomes.
