Writing a Consumer Book for Patients

First, this week on the "Beauty and the Biz" podcast, I welcomed back Dr. Scott Miller. Next, he’s a board-certified plastic surgeon in La Jolla, California. Then, we didn’t focus on surgery.
Instead, we talked about writing books.

Also, Dr. Miller just released his new consumer book, "Authentic Beauty: Defining a New Standard of Care and Results in Plastic Surgery."

What You’ll Learn in This "Beauty and the Biz" Podcast

  • First, why Dr. Miller felt compelled to write a book for patients
  • Next, his 10-year journey of false starts, focus, and finally finishing it
  • Then, how a book can clarify your message, strengthen staff culture, and elevate patient expectations
  • Finally, the biggest misconceptions patients have about plastic surgery—and how he dispels them

Therefore, if you’ve thought about writing a book—or wondered how publishing can change your brand—this "Beauty and the Biz" podcast episode is packed with takeaways.

Moreover, Dr. Miller shares why authenticity—not trends or hype—sets surgeons apart today.

Finally, don’t miss this "Beauty and the Biz" podcast episode with Dr. Scott Miller.

"The fastest way to success is to model other successful surgeons who have what you want, but you can only see their results, not the path they took to get there.

So, you continue to jump from one thing to another, hoping to find something that will work for you too, but it rarely does. So, try this shortcut instead. It’s guaranteed to move you forward. I compiled my intellectual property to grow cosmetic revenues, everything I’ve gleaned over the years into one playbook of the most successful practices and what they do to win.
