Our Clients Speak

"I'm in my third year with 5-Star and I am well on my way to my 3rd "Best Year Ever" in a row! In my first 9 months with Five Star I grew just over triple my entire previous year. I actually doubled in my first month! My second year saw another 50% in growth. This year is solidly on pace to be again about another 40% in growth. Thanks for all of the advise, tools, motivation, and ideas!  

 

- Dr. Andrew J. Limle, Cincinnati, Ohio


"Hiring Noel Lloyd and joining Five Star Management is one of the smartest things I have ever done in practice. I already had a successful multi-doctor practice, but recognized that growing competition and cut-backs in reimbursement required creative thinking and a better approach. Five Star has given me just that. The seminars are packed with information, and the coaching is fantastic. We are already seeing an increase in our PVA and stress level is considerably less."

 

- Dr. Steve Shirley, Spokane, Washington


"I talked to a few friends in my technique that had been happy with Five Star. They told me Five Star had integrity and really understood the upper cervical doctor. I decided to talk with Dr. Lloyd and share with him what my goals were. He told me he thought it was very doable so I signed up.

 

"With Five Star my practice has grown to new levels in patient visits, production and collections. Dr. Lloyd has not only helped me grow professionally, but also personally."

 

- Dr. Craig Lapenski, Graham, Washington


"I can't say enough about what Five Star and Dr. Noel Lloyd have taught me.

It is not an exaggeration to say that they have not only changed my practice, but changed my life as well. I am literally and without a doubt a different person today as a result of Five Star."

 

-Dr. Salima Manji, Toronto, ON           What kinds of changes happened in Salima's practice?


"No problem" he said. I felt like the light really had been left on, just for me."

"Well, I’m back in the saddle again, as we say down here in Texas and I’m thrilled to be back with Five Star. Dr. Noel Lloyd and I first met in 1996. I was green as grass. He and I were a great team. I was achieving my goals, I had lots of money and I was on my way to the top.

 

"He and I were “married” for more than 5 years. Then, I changed. I wanted something I thought Five Star couldn’t give me. "

 

- Dr. Todd Whitehead, Amarillo, TX


"I was frustrated; I simply could not hire an associate who would work out! After a particularly nasty and very expensive associate disaster, I was despairing of ever finding the right DC to join me in my practice.

 

"About that time, a good friend recommended Dr. Lloyd's associate program, “The Million Dollar Associate!” I immediately signed up. After the first day I told Noel, "If I were to leave now, I would have gotten more than my money's worth out of this seminar."

"Dr. Lloyd and I started immediately on opening my own practice."

“I’ve been open since November 3, 2003, less than four months now, and we already hit the 150 visits a week and will be at 200 visits a week by April 29, 2004."

- Dr. Michael Golab, San Antonio, Texas


"I’m having the time of my life in the practice that I have been dreaming of." "Here I am flying first class on a vacation to Hawaii. Dr. Lloyd has been bugging me to write my testimonial for Five Star, but when have I had time? I had 60 new patients schedule last month as a result of one promotion that Five Star taught me!"

"I doubled my practice three weeks after my first Five Star seminar!"

"More than hitting goals and having the practice of my dreams, the fear I was consumed with is gone and I wake up every morning with a renewed sense of purpose and energy. For the younger docs in practice, remember this: Even the worse day in practice is better than anything else the world has to offer! THANK YOU FIVE STAR!!!"

"In August of I called Noel and started back with Five Star again."

"I became a Five Star Client when I first started practice on my own in 1993.  Using the Five Star procedures and Dr. Lloyd's coaching we quickly built a practice with an average of 350 visits per week. Life was great..., but after a few years our procedures weren't as sharp as they once were. I also experienced staff changes and I started to lose focus.  ...In December 2001 we all took a sharp drop.  There I was with a 30% decrease in patient visits."

- Dr. Alan Irving, Langley, B.C.

- Dr. Kris Davis Ogden, UT

"I graduated from Sherman College at the ripe old age of 23."

I was pretty scared. Luckily, I started my chiropractic career as an associate of Dr. Michael Lenarz.  I was trained with the Five Star principles and procedures from the very first day. Within 6 months of graduation I was the clinic director in our first satellite practice. My training is paying off. Our best week is 312 visits and we are on pace to collect over $600,000.00 in 2002.

 - Dr. Chris Wolff, Seattle WA


"Believe me, I had no desire to be a Five Star client!"

"Five Star delivers the goods!"

"I wanted a more fulfilling practice. The satisfaction and excitement I had dreamed of and heard about was not my experience. I felt stuck. So I attended my first Five Star. What did I have to lose? What I found was amazing.

 

- Dr. Steve Glass, Spokane, WA


"Struggling or successful, I recommend Five Star."

"After six  months on my own, with my seed money running out, I thought I was going to have to close up shop. ... I heard Dr. Michael Lenarz speak at the annual Blair Chiropractic Society convention. Dr. Lenarz accepted me as a client in November 2001 and in six months I had tripled my number of weekly patient visits and receipts.  I wish I had joined Five Star Management as soon as I graduated.

 

- Dr. Gordon Elder, Lancaster, CA

-Mrs. Sharon Amis,  Middlebury, IN


"Same city, but an entirely different world!"

"Well, a year later, I was still only consistently seeing ten to twelve patient visits per week, the money my mother lent me was gone, no other lender would give me any money and I could barely pay the rent or buy food. I didn’t even know if chiropractic worked anymore."

-Dr. Chad Baginski, Pittsburgh, PA

 


"28 New Patient sign-ups my first day with Five Star!"

"I called Noel Lloyd just to check out Five Star and he challenged me to increase my practice by 25 visits a week my first month as a new Five Star client. I took the challenge, signed up with Five Star and called Noel for some action steps. Well, I got the action steps from Dr. Lloyd and put them to work that night. I had 28 new patient sign ups before 7:00 PM!

-Dr. Bodie Dorrance, Henderson, NC (Bodie's photo is on it's way!)


"An Extra 100 New Patients A Year!"

“When the HMO thing hit my practice, my income and my morale dropped like a rock. I had heard great things about Five Star so I called and started working with Dr. Lee Newman. To make a long story short, I have far surpassed where I was before the problems with insurance started, mainly because of Dr. Lee Newman’s guidance on getting new patients. Last year I got an extra 100 new patients since I’ve been working with Lee. If you think an extra 100 new patients would help, call Lee.”

- Derrick Denman, D.C. of Lincolnton, NC


An Extra $100,000 In Services!"

“I was frustrated; my practice went up and down like a yo-yo. You don’t learn in school what you need to know about building a great practice. With Dr. Lee Newman’s help my practice took off like a rocket. I don’t believe money is everything, but I produced and collected an extra $100,000 in my first year with Five Star. Do you want to get paid for what you do? Call Dr. Newman.”

- Andrew Johnson, D.C. of Catonsville, MD


"An Extra $200,000 In Services!"

"In my first year my production increased by $200,000.00, and that’s not even the best part. Without any fee increases I have continued to grow by AN ADDITIONAL $100,000 to $200,000 EACH year!

But here’s the best part. I’ve got Noel Lloyd as my coach. He’s been there with great advice every step of the way. With the help I’ve received from Five Star and Noel, I’m continuing to grow, learn and have fun in practice. I expect 2002 will be another “Best Ever Year.”

- Dr. John R. Zrelak of Chicago, IL


Worth Smiling About!

What's putting such a  smile on Dr. Mike Johnson's face? We think we know. Dr. Johnson started his practice before the arrival of managed care and had assumed, like so many, that the "best years were over."

 

But since becoming a Five Star client he's had an unbroken series of "best ever" years in practice! At the end of the first quarter of this year, Dr. Johnson is up 25% over last year's record pace. Now that's fun! Would you like to discover your "best ever" years? They're waiting for you at Five Star!


"How I Got My “Black Belt In New Patients!”

"In the first ten minutes he saved me $10,000 cash right off my startup expenses! I thought, “He’s already earned his keep!”  When I opened my office, I averaged 10 new patients a week. I grew fast and my brand new practice was profitable in a few short weeks after opening.

 

"This year it’s been even better. With Noel’s help I’m averaging 64 new patients a month. My practice has grown 100% each year that I’ve been with Noel Lloyd and Five Star. This has been the best investment I ever made for my family and my practice."

- Brian Schnitta D.C. of Kansas City, KS


"A 600% Increase In Patient Visits!"

"The first year I grew by 35%. My second year I was very excited, added a few more procedures and grew by another 90%. My third year saw several more changes and I grew by an additional 52%. 2001 has been the most fun yet and we’ve grown by an astounding 56%! That’s a 6-fold increase over four years! I need to mention that all this growth happened in my same little office space (650 sq. ft.) and with my same little overhead.

 

"If you’re finding the going a little tough, call Dr. Noel Lloyd and ask him to coach you. It truly changed my life!"

- Westley Kuns, D.C. of Gresham, OR
