  • "Lynn's leadership and professionalism are second tonone.

    "I have watched Lynn transform the way physicians practice by leading them to more meaningful relationships with their staff and their patients. Lynn is much more than a practice management consultant; she is a revolutionary. Lynn walks the walk. She does not simply tell physicians what to do in their practice, but instead inspires them into action. She is very simply a catalyst for meaningful, positive, and lasting change. She is known throughout the podiatric medical community not only as a key opinion leader, but also a true professional in every sense of the word, guided by a strong moral compass, who consistently adheres to her core values."

    Patrick Reichel, Nat'l Sales Mgr, The Tetra Corp.

  • "Lynn is one of the most complete office management experts

    in the field. She brings knowledge, compassion and a wealth of experience into her work. She takes the time to understand the office issues, find a remedy when needed and see that it is instituted. I can only recommend her most highly."

    Michael King, physician/podiatrist

  • "Lynn Homisak is an accomplished author and lecturer.

    She is a national authority on medical assistants and practice management. She was recently elected in the Podiatry Management Hall of Fame. Her articles are submitted in a timely fashion and she exhibits great creativity in her writing."

    Barry Block, DPM, Esq., Editor, Podiatry Management Magazine

  • "Lynn and I have worked on several projects

    including speaking, writing, and consulting. She's a very creative and attentive to details. She has impeccable follow up. I enjoyed working with her and recommend her highly. I would be happy to answer any quesitons about her skills, her competence, and her character."

    Neil Baum, MD, Clinical Assoicate Professor of Urology, Tulane Medical School, New Orleans, LA

  • "Lynn was the best investment

    I have ever made in my clinic. She was able to bring constructive recommendations to my office that improved office flow and increased productivity and therefore my bottom line! She is the most positive person and was incredible at motivating my office staff. She empowered my staff to own what they do and in turn they are more productive and happier at their tasks! I would highly recommend Lynn. I thought I ran a pretty efficient clinic and she still brought insight into areas that could be improved. Worth every dime!"

    Julie DeSimone, D.Ch.

  • "I cannot say enough about what Lynn

    has done over the years for both the individual podiatry offices she has assisted and our profession as a whole. Any assistant that has sat through her sessions or attended her workshops has brought back invaluable resources to their offices - resources that benefit both the patients they serve and the bottom line of the practices themselves. She has a real knack in knowing what will work where, and is able to get that round peg to fit properly into the square hole - she makes it work!"

    David B. Alper, DPM

  • I have known Lynn Homisak for almost twenty five years,

    and worked with her in a variety of different capacities.I have known her as a certified podiatric medical assistant, president of the American Society of Podiatric Medical Assistants, and later as an author, lecturer and consultant. What sets Lynn apart from so many other people is her uncompromising desire and effort to make a difference. Not only does she know what she is talking about, but she carries herself with dignity, style and humor." February 7, 2012

    Kevin Sunshein, DPM

  • Lynn's workshop should be a must for all medical assistants.

    Even if you don't want to go into podiatry, Lynn's workshop should be a must for all medical assistants. The small group setting was great for networking. You felt comfortable talking with other attendees about their offices and experiences.

    Jenny Good-Corbeil

  • I thought everything was so wonderful.

    You involved everyone and have made a positive impact on my Podiatry Career! Thank you!

  • I especially found this presentation informational,

    especially since just finishing my residency. There were many ideas and great examples presented here that I never thought of and were not exposed to. This class was well-organized, relevant and fun! I feel it would have been even better if it was longer.

    Don Pelto, DPM
    Worcester, MA

  • ...fast-paced and awesome!

    Lynn, your Boston Workshop was not too long at all! There were lots of great ideas and information - it was fast-paced and awesome! Kept my attention and made me optimistic to keep working hard. After attending numerous other meetings, lectures, conferences, I would highly recommend this one to others. I would also suggest t hat my DPM come to another lecture. Great job!

  • The SOS Staff Training Workshop is DYNAMIC,

    energetic and full of information - well worth the investment in myself and my staff. I would and DO highly recommend this program for doctors and staff. There is always something to learn.

  • Lynn, you inspire me to reach

    for more knowledge in this field. I received more insight on how to educate and train new employees and how to create a positive atmosphere by attending your Ft. Lauderdale Workshop. It was very thorough. Thank you, Thank you!

    Toni Becht, Office Manager
    Hudson, FL

  • This program was revitalizing!

    This [Cleveland] program was revitalizing! Lynn knew her stuff and there was great interaction! I learned there is a lot more I need to learn after 31 years in practice.

    Richard Berkowitz, DPM
    Bedford, OH

  • Best workshop I've ever been to!

    Best workshop [Oak Brook, IL] I've ever been to! I learned a lot that will help make my job a lot easier and make the office run a lot better. It really was worth being there for 9 hours!

    Marcela Rivera, PMA
    Homewood, IL

  • The information was greatly appreciated

    and I hope to implement this into my practice to improve communication and work flow. I think that the staff interaction and just how to treat one another was fantastic. Lynn was a dynamic speaker; the content was great and the day informative [Oak Brook Workshop] was worth it!

    Michael Chin, DPM
    Chicago, IL

  • I cannot even imagine a better workshop

    [Houston]. It was so packed with information and lots of fun. Lynn makes you feel totally relaxed and is receptive to all questions. I am so much better informed for having attended. I came away so inspired and can't wait to get back to the office and implement what I've learned.

    Debbie Harader, Office Manager, Texas Foot Consultants
    Houston, TX

  • I attended your Saddle Brook Training Program

    and found it to be splendid. I am more aware of how essential communication with staff is, how to handle employees and how to make my practice better. You have so much experience to offer and are a valuable asset to our profession. Keep up the good work!

    Paul Lafata, DPM
    West Lawn, PA

  • fantastic

    Your Cleveland Training Workshop was 'fantastic' and I have learned many, many things as a result of attending. I will change at least ten things in my office next week!

    Michael Formann, DPM
    Lynhurst, OH

  • Loved it! Great presentation! Never bored!

    Thank you...you were truly the breath of 'fresh air' I needed. I feel more motivated as a supervisor and leader and so does my staff that attended with me! - WELL-WORTH the $$ - what a bargain!

    Melodie Weis, Manager, Weis Podiatry
    Amarillo, Texas

  • I would highly recommend the SOS Staff Training Workshop

    and feel it is very worthwhile for doctors and staff alike - it provides excellent training for new staff and managers. I found it to be very thorough, enjoyable, educational and it exceeded my expectations!"

    Peter Brieloff, DPM
    Cumberland, MD

  • My staff and I traveled all the way from California

    to attend your Fort Lauderdale Workshop and here's what I feel were the highlights of the program:
    1. The information was very encompassing
    2. The delivery, especially the exchange of ideas, kept things interesting and compelling the whole time
    3. The handouts and Power points helped to improve retention of the material.

    The improvements in my staff's attitude and attention to detail have been noticeable since we got back form Florida. My own attitude has improved - I am much more clear in my requests of both patients and staff. Meetings are easier. Paperwork gets done well, not just "done". Thanks again, Lynn. I hope your business thrives, since you offer such great instruction.

    Karen Anderson, DPM
    La Jolla, CA

  • ...thanks for everything.

    Lynn, I just wanted to say thanks for everything. I want you to know that you impact Professional Foot & Ankle on a daily basis. Whenever I find myself slipping into a bad habit, I ask myself, "what would Lynn say or recommend to change this to a positive." You are powerful and awesome. Thanks!

    Jerome Randall, DPM
    Olympia Fields, IL

  • I could have sat through 3 days of this!

    It is a long day, but I feel I could have sat through 3 days of this! I feel inspired to head back to the office, armed with my workshop book and make some changes. We have a fantastic practice, but there is always room for improvement and now we can do it! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

    Courtney Dolan, Director of First Impressions
    Worcester, MA

  • Our staff came back from your seminar so pumped up --

    ne of the girls called me at 8am the next day (Saturday!) wanting to talk about some things she wanted to implement right away! Thanks so much for the great information.

Evaluate your Workflow

Change is never easy, but face it - if your practice is not moving forward, it’s either sitting still or… yikes, in reverse! A simplified “SWOT” analysis examination of your workflow allows you to reorganize those systems.

Manage Profitably (Feature Reprinted from Podiatry Management Magazine, Jan. 2018 issue)

"Managing my pratice is exhausting! I just want to practice podiatry and take care of my patients!" Learn how to do it with fewer headaches, less stress and more time for patient care.

Putting out "fires" in Your Practice
This was definitely not the kind of day you expected when getting out of bed this morning. You planned to treat patients and improve lives, not dowse fires all day. It is no surprise to have occasional problems throughout the day. That’s Murphy’s Law. However, when 80% of your day is spent putting out office fires, leaving only 20% to focus on productivity, you need to do something – quickly – before those flames burn out of control.
