I work in a practice that is predominately orthotics and pedorthics. We are
trying to get an idea on how many patients to schedule per practitioner. I
was hoping that the list could give me some guidance on how you do
scheduling. Do you schedule on the hour or on the half-hour? What is a reasonable
number of patients for a practitioner to see per day? I realize that on some days
it may take longer to fit a pair of foot orthotics than it does a KAFO
However, are are just looking for a baseline to work with. Also we do see a good
number of walk in patients.

Thanks for your help.
