Ever had a patient who…
✔️ Said yes
✔️ Nodded enthusiastically
✔️ Asked smart questions
✔️ Looked fully on board
…and then vanished like a bad Tinder date?
No complaint.
No argument.
Just p**f 💨
Most clinicians call this “poor compliance.”
But that’s not what’s actually happening.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
👉 Patients don’t drop out because they don’t understand.
👉 They drop out because of a decision they’ve already made — silently.
And no, more explaining doesn’t fix it.
(If it did, this wouldn’t keep happening.)
We’ve put together a short, practical guide that shows you:
• Why “good explanations” can backfire
• The hidden moment where follow-through is decided
• 3 simple questions that stop drop-out before it starts
No scripts.
No psychology waffle.
No awkward salesy conversations.
Just better consults → better follow-through.

Fair warning: once you see this, you’ll never un-see it…
and “they seemed so motivated” will stop being a mystery.
