Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 July 2010 the CEO of a hospital system in Wisconsin calls me to say: " You are the answer to all of our dreams. " (after hearing me on an NPR interview) I don't know who this guy is. Never heard of his 13-hospital system in Wisconsin. After a conference call he leaves the following message: " Dr. Wible, I wanted to thank you for visiting with us today. You have just opened up my mind and my heart towards so many things, and I'm very excited that you will come to our community and help us become a better place and help our doctors become happier practitioners. I am reflecting on what has happened in your life … I really think this is divinely inspired … we are all really grateful that you are coming and excited that you will help us. You are the answer to all of our dreams. " —Steve Ronstrom, CEO, Sacred Heart Hospital, Eau , Wisconsin; President and CEO, Hospital Sisters Health System (Western Wisconsin) Okay so I lead 13 sessions in 48 hours on Oct 25,26th - 2 have 300 citizens packed into ballrooms. I meet in smaller groups with Amish, kindergartners, 4th, 8th graders, assisted living facility, drug rehab, Hmong, church groups. . . and the momentum is INCREDIBLE. Newspapers, evening news spots. . . Next weekend the competitor hospital (anyone heard of the Mayo clinic?) opens their 300 million dollar new hospital and my CEO guy tells me I got more media coverage and community excitement generated than the new hospital. He tells me: (get this) " Nobody is talking about the new beautiful hospital. They are all talking about you! " Okay guys. . . this is it. . . stay tuned. . . check out the details here: http://www.idealmedicalpractice.org/ideal-hospital.php Gordon, we gotta talk! ~ Pamela Pamela Wible, MD 3575 St. #220 Eugene, OR 97405 roxywible@... www.idealmedicalpractice.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Cool! BTW, I trained in Eau for my Family Medicine Residency - and did many rotatoins and nights at Sacred Heart hospital. Mayo came into town and bought the other hospital and the local HMO - then all the HMO docs only admitted to the Mayo hospital across town (despite Sacred Heart literally being across the street from their offices). Then Marshfield Clinic (a Mayo like clinic in north central Wisconsin) came in and bought the hospital in Chippewa Falls (just north of Ea - and famous for Leinenkugel's beer). So Sacred Heart certainly has their work cut out for them in competition. Locke, MD July 2010 the CEO of a hospital system in Wisconsin callsme to say: " You are the answer to all of our dreams.
