Stolen Consults

How the Black-Market Clinic Wins Patients You Already Paid For

60-minute live briefing for surgeons, practice managers, and patient coordinators

September 17, 2026 • 3:00 PM ET • Live + Q&A

Unlicensed technicians. No continuity of care. No recourse when it goes wrong. The ISHRS has documented what the price-first clinic actually costs patients, and what it costs the practices competing against it.

Where practices actually lose patients to price-first clinics
The confirmation sequence and warm handoff that stop no-shows
Same-day recovery and the 48-hour follow-up that brings a ghosted patient back
What to say when a patient quotes a $3,000 overseas price

You did not lose on price

The patient who no-shows your consult is the patient who books overseas three weeks later. The loss does not happen in the consultation. It happens in the gap between the first inquiry and the patient sitting in your chair, and the price-first clinic is built to fill exactly that gap.
