At this stage of the patient journey, a prospective patient has gathered information and scheduled a consultation. But the final decision to begin treatment is still pending – and often emotionally charged.
Research in decision psychology confirms: perceived professionalism, personal interaction and environment-related cues weigh just as heavily as clinical competence.
For this reason, every communication touchpoint within the practice environment must be strategically aligned:
Reception and waiting area (e.g. informative displays, interactive e-books, video stories),
Team interaction (trained in patient dialogue, motivation and recommendation techniques),
Pre- and post-consultation communication (automated email workflows, visualizations via app or tablet).
