How to Respond to Negative Reviews

#1 Be HIPPA compliant: Do not publicly acknowledge that a reviewer is a patient. Even if you know who it is.

#2 Don’t stress, stay calm. Nobody is perfect. We all make mistakes. Accept some imperfections. Learn from the feedback and do better.

#3 Reply to the review ASAP, but if you are mad wait until you are calm and cool to write a response. Never be defensive or especially offensive.

**A good example of a HIPPA-compliant reply that can be used for any negative review is: We are sorry to hear that. Thank you for the feedback. Please call our office so we can help.**

#4 Have a one-to-one conversation with the patient. If the concern is legitimate offer a solution. Most people just want to be heard, feel like you really care about them, and that you will do better to improve their experience with you.

#5 If you fixed their issue, you can ask the patient to update their review.

#6 Get a consistent flow of positive reviews to push down any negative ones.
