“The narrative around Concierge Medicine has changed. CMF brings these unique discussions and this amazing group of Physicians together each year to learn about how Concierge Medicine is changing the lives of Physician’s and Patients around us.”
~Editor, Michael Tetreault

It’s not only a place for Physicians to gain practical customer service and communications training, but it’s a welcoming place where Doctor’s, staff, Nurses, PAs, RNs and others can connect and collaborate with a community of like-minded people who do what you do and do it happily.

“We must remove every possible obstacle from the walkway of the worried, restless, irritated, annoyed, fretful, angry, depressed, concerned patient,” says Michael Tetreault, Host of the CMT Concierge Medicine Forum and Editor of the international trade publication, Concierge Medicine Today. “The exam room, the staff, the hallway, the front office and even the parking lot must be ready to serve and receive every Patient with a smile … without frustration, without waiting or last minute interruption. This is hard work. It requires an extra step in preparation which most medical offices and corporate leadership running medical offices are simply unwilling and don’t want to do. It’s different I get it. But this is how we lead Patients into a trusted and confidence-based relationship with their Doctor … by removing every possible obstacle on their path, one day, one step at a time. The goal is progress, not perfection and we must continue to lean in and support Doctors and teams that are will to do what’s difficult and raise the standard of care to a higher level.”
