2,000 Year Old Story Helps Dr. Heather’s Patients Relieve Pain

Dear Patients and Friends,

If you would like to know how a 2,000 year old story is helping patients relieve their pain – you will love this.

Here is why…

I’m sure you’ve heard of Aesop’s fables. But, here’s something interesting you might not know. Aesop was a Greek citizen who lived approximately 2,000 years ago and wrote, considered by some experts, among the first printed works in the vernacular European language. Probably the most amazing thing is that his fables hold true today just as much as they did 2,000 years ago. For example… check out this great fable entitled: “The Lion and The Eagle.”

“AN EAGLE stayed his flight and entreated a Lion to make an alliance with him

to their mutual advantage. The Lion replied, ‘I have no objection, but you must

excuse me for requiring you to find surety for your good faith, for how can I trust

anyone as a friend who is able to fly away from his bargain whenever he

pleases?’”

And, of course, every Aesop’s fable comes with a moral. And the moral to this fable is: Try before you trust.

So, what does this have to do with us? Well, our entire practice is based on the principle of, “try before you trust.” That means, everyone should be able to check out our practice before committing to anything. This has worked out great because so many patients have started care and referred family members because they know they will not be pushed into any long-term treatment plan they may not want. In other words, patients love telling others because they know whoever they send will be treated like they are a family member.

So, we would like to thank you for trying us before you trusted. And also thank you for telling others about our practice. Helping someone get out of pain is one of the best things you can ever do for them – and they will remember you for the rest of their lives.

Wouldn’t it be nice if all businesses allowed you to try before you trust?

And if there is anything we can do to help, just give us a call at 952-758-8760.

Sincerely,

Dr. Heather Giesen

P.S. We are always looking for ways to make our practice better and serve our patients more. If you have any suggestions, please give us a call and tell us what’s on your mind. We love hearing from patients – after all it’s “your” practice too. J
