Leslie,
Not in front of my wife!!! lol I love ya too girl. Brian, Larry who Nancy and I met at IMP Camp this weekend speaks very highly of you. Read my lightheaded post on the other thread. Nancy and I went back to our room and had a bottle of Prosecco and after she crashed I logged on to see what you guys were reporting on.
BIG SUGGESTIONS:
1) Almost all AC solo PCP's (and even other really small 2-3 doc groups perhaps too) need to take a closer look at IMP'ing and getting involved with the movement. It was so nice to be in a room full of doctors that were not one bit full of themselves, down to earth, fun loving, and who wanted to create great medicine and a great enviornment for themselves and their patients. My hat off to the folks from my conference who put it all togther. We are certainly going back for more.
2) So on that note, I really want to schedule and coordinate the two conference so nobody who wants to attend both should have any issues of choosing between the two. We were in a small northeast Mansion full of AC, Soapware, Allteer, and Springcharts users. It was glorious!
Such synergy and single minded purpose. Folks certainly had different perspectives, road blocks, problems, issues and solutions and no one solution totally fits all. But my goodness, it was so nice to finally hang out with such like minded supportive and pro-health, pro-patient, pro normal provider. WOW! Brian I can not thank-you enough. And you really need to reach out to Larry, I think he could use some support right about now.
So, In closing I really want to open up the conversation between these two groups who really should almost be one. And I guess that is really where I was going with this all along.
So guys please, over the next few days post as much stuff as you can. Both about what is certainly coming as well as the kinds of interesting creative thoughts and ideas came out of the group.
I'm realy sad that we missed joining all you folks out there, and yet I am so glad that we did get to go to the conference we did attend. Let's make sure that all AC users can attend both next year. Oh, and IMP is considering my idea of regional IMP's chapters so we can get together to discuss things that are more regional in nature, support each other during the year inbetween conferences and build a sense of community among us all. Let's try and think about pulling the same thing off with AC or again perhaps combining some of these organizations get togethers when needed. I'm sure we'd all be better off for it.
Good to hear from you guys,
Paul
