New Graduate Naturopath Achieves Evidence-Based Practice Growth and Efficient Patient Charting

Hi, my name is Doctor Julia Friesen, naturopathic doctor. And three years ago I was struggling with time management, patient retention, building plans for patients, and since joining The Confident Clinician Club, I've been able to build my practice as a new graduate and I've really enjoyed all the resources and tools The Confident Clinician club has given me. After The Confident Clinician program my practice is much better because I'm able to give patients effective strategies that are evidence based and I'm confident in giving those strategies and tools to patients, knowing that they'll get better and they'll come back for follow ups and trust me as their healthcare provider. I highly recommend The Confident Clinician program because the amount of tools and strategies that I get to support my patients has been immense and it's really just helped me find practitioners who I trust to support me through my practice as I have been growing over the last five years. What made me say yes to The Confident Clinician Club was wanting the mentorship and guidance, but also wanting someone that I trusted who had an approach to naturopathic medicine similar to myself. If there was something that might have prevented me from starting with The Confident Clinician, it would have been time commitments. So I was worried about amount of time I had to spend bend researching for specific patient cases. And I was worried that adding more lectures and more time commitments on top of what I was already doing was going to prevent me from starting with the club. What surprised me the most about working with The Confident Clinician Club was that I thought I was going to join the club and remain in the club for a year, gather all the information I thought that I would need, and then move on with my individual practice. But what was the most surprising was the amount of information and resources and tools that I gathered through the club, that it has made me want to stay in the club forever. So I'm really happy that I continue to find value. Every single month, there's guest lecturers, there is new content coming out every single week. So just the continued valued experience of being in the club is really something that is important to me. What I am now able to do with my practice is that I find when I'm in a patient visit, I'm able to be present. I'm not worried about researching things in the visit with the patient. I'm able to finish my soap notes within the visit with the patient and give them a plan right after the visit. The Confident Clinician has helped me step up and be a leader in my community in women's health by providing me with tools and resources to have the best evidence based approaches to help people feel better because when people feel better, they're coming back for follow ups. They're trusting me for opinions on new complaints that they have through various stages of their life. I recommend The Confident Clinician program because it has helped me immensely in my practice, enabled me to help patients, enabled me to have better time management skills, not spending hours on my charting notes, not spending hours researching each individual case, but provided me with tons of tools and resources to have effective visits with patients and it helps them get better. As a new graduate when I started Confident Clinician, I was really worried about having a mentor who I trusted and through The Confident Clinician I have various mentors through different lecturers and also a lot of different tools and resources to continuing furthering my education on complaints that I see on a regular basis with patients.
