Testimonials

Dr Kevin Tipper, Chorley: "We have been delighted with the management consultancy service we have received from FPM. Ruth conducted a two day review of the whole Practice and team, and recommended a number of ways in which we could improve efficiency within the Practice. We are now in the process of recruiting a new Practice Manager and FPM have been instrumental in facilitating this and we look forward to completing the recruitment process with Ruth and her team."

Dr Jonathan Smith, South Hetton: "We recently had a 2 day assessment of our practice, specifically focussing upon the management. We have all found it hugely beneficial in highlighting areas for improvement. A fresh pair of eyes has been invaluable in identifying weaknesses in our structure, and also training needs for staff."

A practice, North of England: "We couldn’t recommend Ruth highly enough. She came into our practice which was in crisis and has somehow managed to show us a way through our problems. After going through our finances Ruth has identified multiple unclaimed items, amounting to several thousand pounds, which has meant that despite the cost of the service and implementing suggested improvements in the equipment/software, the whole process has probably left us in profit overall."
