Dr. Lucas will review the “script” he uses every single day, multiple times a day, to help make his life in the operatory go more smoothly. You can use what works for you to help your day go more smoothly. A key emphasis is placed on how you can get parents to not be helicopters in the operatory.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn principles and phrases to help greatly reduce “helicopter parents”
  • Techniques to try to convince parents to not use the word “shot”.
  • Help lower your own blood pressure and help more kids behave for procedures.
