During the month of February we honor the many important achievements of African Americans and their valuable contributions to society. The American Psychological Association features prominent African-American Psychologists in their series on Ethnicity and Health in America.

Among them is Francis Sumner, PhD., who is considered the “Father of Black Psychology.” Dr. Sumner received his Ph.D. after serving in WWI. He later founded the psychology department at Howard University and served as chairman from 1928 until his death. Also highlighted is Inez Beverly Prosser, Ph.D., who, in 1933, was the first African American woman to earn a doctoral degree in psychology.

For more information on these two influential Psychologists, read Francis Sumner, PhD, and Inez Beverly Prosser, PhD, written by Logan Wright, Ph.D.

Client Reviews

With so many people sharing their experiences on the web, both good and bad, there’s no way to control what your clients may post in a review about your services.

You can, however, gain insight on their views to find out what is working well and where improvements are needed by surveying your clients towards the end of therapy. This allows you to not only minimize negative postings on the web, but to gain market leverage.

QuicDoc® Professional and Enterprise software both have a built-in Patient Satisfaction Survey for just this purpose. The survey assesses the following:

• Access to Care
• Physical Surroundings
• Technical Quality
• Outcomes
• Interpersonal Care/Communication
• Overall Satisfaction.

To access the survey, select Patients Satisfaction Survey from the QuicDoc Assessments menu.
