Ideas That Work
Get creative with greeting cards
Edited by Diana Procuniar, RN, BA, CNOR

The best marketing for an endoscopy center is a satisfied patient who refers others and tells his primary care physician that his experience was a good one. We also market our practice through our patient education e-newsletter (go to writeOutLink("www.gihealth.com/newsletter/previous/063.html",1)) and our annual Christmas card.
