For all businesses, the patients, clients, and customers are the most important factors for the success of the business. Thus, it is very essential to keep them happy so that they can be retained. Moreover, if they are satisfied with the service they’ve received, then they are likely to make recommendations that will lead to more customers.  Providing good customer service is a good investment.

In today’s connected and online world, reviews are used by many to filter out and narrow the field of businesses they might do business with.  But not all customers, patients, and clients take time to leave a review.   It is, thus, essential to have a customer review software so that leaving a review is not only easy, but it’s tracked and can be evaluated.

Below are some tips for great customer service, from the perspective of a healthcare provider.  But the basics apply to virtually any business.

Essentials things the healthcare provider must have to retain patients     

Nowadays various tools and technologies have arrived in the market to diagnosis the patient. But no matter whatever technology or amenities are used, if the healthcare provider does not follow some basic essential things, they can never keep their patient happy and will not be able to retain them. The following are some ways which help the healthcare provider to retain their patient:

Good behavior with a powerful smile:

There is a saying that “A man without a smiling face must not open a shop”. The same goes for the healthcare providers as well. Just like a baby’s smile can completely change one’s mood, the good behavior of the staff and doctor with a big smile can cure the half of the disease of the patient psychologically. That is the reason why most of the patient like to treat themselves in such healthcare provider whose staff and doctors are helpful, well behaved and smiling nature.

Listing the patient carefully:

Listing the problem of the patient will not only help the Doctor to treat him well but also give a mental satisfaction to the patient that he could have told every kind of problem to his doctor and so he will be treated for all the problem he has. So, it is very essential the doctors listen to their patient and also allow their patient to talk about themselves and let them know to tell about all types of problems they are facing. This will give confidence to the patient and provide them with a general feeling that the doctor cares about them.

Addressing the patient by their name:

All patients will like when they are addressed by their names. If a doctor calls a patient by their name especially in their subsequent visits it gives a general feeling to the patient that the doctor has remembered them as well as their problems. It certainly gives a psychological feeling that they will be treated well as doctors remembered all their problems.

Praising the patient on their improvements:

Patients are generally given many restrictions mostly on their diet control when they come to a doctor for certain disease. When the patient follows the doctor’s advice and controls their diet they deserve an appreciation from their doctor. When the doctor finds improvement in their patient they must praise them which will encourage the patient to continue with their diet control and getting cured quickly.

Follow up the patient with confirm appointment:

It is very essential that the administrative staff of a healthcare provider follow up their patient in their subsequent visit with confirming the appointment and encourage them to come for the re-visit without any delay. They can send an automatic reminder message to their patient and confirm their appointment by email, phone calls or text messages. This process can make the patient fell that the healthcare provider where they are being treated are organized and systematic and cares about their patient. Thus, it will help to retain the patient and will encourage the patient to recommend the healthcare provider to many of their friends and relatives.

Handling the problems and disputes intelligently:

It is obvious that every healthcare provider will come up with disputes or some tricky problems. You just cannot ignore this fact – it is bound to happen when you are dealing with so many patients and so many kinds of diseases. But the most important thing is to handle them very intelligently so that your patients do not get disheartened.

These are very important steps that every business should follow to retain their patients, clients, and customers,  and make them happy.  Great customer service always pays dividends!
