Hello again all.
About 9 months ago I posted A link to a video we made at my office the introduced a design my staff and I came up with. We called it the Turbo and mentioned our success
and many watched the videos. To date our You Tube channel videos watched is over 20,000 with subscribers from around the world. My techs and I have had fun posting thoughts and information.
Now to the reason I'm bothering you. I have heard of several facilities incorporating the design into their practice. For those that have, I'd like to hear from you. It is by far the most popular design we make and our outcomes have been, quite frankly, better than ever. I love this design. My questions follow for those few that have tried:
What is your honest impression of the design?
Outcomes?
Was there a huge learning curve in pulling plastic?
Your thoughts overall.
Thanks for taking time and if I get any responses I'll post them anonymously unless OK'd by you. Last item. I heard a presenter at the Academy meeting threw in this design at the last minute and called it the Texas Turbo. He said it was because Turbo has been coined by someone else and he is correct. I don't want to step on anyone's toes so Texas Turbo works for me.
A few of my videos are also posted at 360 O&P and at oandp.com also.
Are we havin' fun yet?
Livin' the dream.
