This template is for private practice dietitians who struggle with the idea cold-calling and networking with their local physicians.

Walking into a physician’s office and announcing who you are and that you want to speak with a doctor feels intrusive. It never felt natural to me, so I could never bring myself to do it. I created this packet for myself to send to doctors as a way of getting my name out in the local medical community without having to be salesperson. The BIGGEST reason I did this was because I truly wanted to be an asset to the doctors, and not an intrusion.

I was shocked at the responses I received. The doctors were thrilled to know that I existed for their specific patients’ needs. They were also very grateful that I wanted to communicate with them, and not override their suggestions blindly as many doctors fear from dietitians.

With this packet you’ll…

  • Save non-billable time by not having to create your own packet from scratch
  • Get your name out into your local community
  • Build rapport with your clients’ doctors
  • Become a trusted asset
  • Position yourself as an authority in your field of expertise within your community.
  • Increase your referrals whether you are private pay or insurance-based

  1. Instructions for using the template
  2. Tips and suggestions so you know exactly what to do and how to get the most out of the template
  3. A packet checklist that you can refer to while assembling packets to ensure you don’t forget anything
  4. A template of a physician letter- all you have to do is replace my information with your own, and then for each client update their info and the doctor’s info
  5. A template for a page briefly describing how RDNs can help, and also a little about yourself. Just replace my info and picture with your own.
  6. A template for a page that briefly describes your services, payment options, and what they should do if they have more patients with similar needs.
  7. Free support from me should you have any questions!

    This is a link to a Canva Template so you will need at least the free version to edit. I luckily have the pro version. It is 3 usable pages with detailed explanation of how to and tips. I was hoping for a thank you or follow up letter to the MD as well. Overall worth the $10 so I do not have to spend the time making this in Canva or Word on my own. I edited it in about 10 min.
