Webinar: Getting to YESTM - The Formula for Successful Treatment Presentation

REGISTER NOW

Getting to YES™ challenges the idea that acceptance is driven by persuasion or pressure. Instead, this lecture explores how patients actually make decisions, and how doctors can ethically and predictably improve acceptance by aligning communication with human behavior.

This lecture is practical, evidence-based, and immediately applicable in everyday patient conversations.

Participants will be able to:

• Understand how pre-suasion shapes patient decisions before treatment is ever discussed

• Identify the key psychological and emotional factors that influence case acceptance

• Apply the YES Formula™ to structure clearer, more effective treatment conversations

• Use “commitment questions” that activate Commitment and Consistency

• Leverage the power of “YET” to reframe hesitation as a step in the decision journey rather than rejection
