Dr. Walt Combs is the doctor that owns Rancho Medical that the gym I work in is inside of. Walt had told me that he never saw a SNY rep! So I was on the bike this morning and Walts on the treadmill. He has a real fat man with him. He starts telling the fat man how I lost all that weight on my own with out surgery. I talked to the man awhile and then I told Walt about how MNKD has their own reps now! He starts telling the man who is also a diabetic about Afrezza. The man says, that sounds to good to be true? Walt says, we have been waiting years for this! And all about how he himself hates shots! Then about how fast acting it is. Then I had a thought: I went and got my cell and had Walt listen to the A Kowalski ( JDRF ) 2min cut video. On how Afrezza is astounding but MNKD is in trouble. He listened and then said OK! ( Have MNKD call me right away and send a local rep out! I have 35 doctors working for me and we are having a diabetic conference in 6 weeks. I want the rep to come and give a talk on Afrezza.) I said, great:-)) And then you can start writing scrips and be on the early adapters list of prescribing doctors! (( Happy Dance)) I just tweeted Mike and he said, we are on it!! This is perfect! 35 doctors seeing how many patients? Then those patients tell others they know. This is classic. Thanks Sports! |

This would be awesome, especially if all 35 doctors bought into the benefits of Afrezza and won't view the spirometer and insurance issues as problems or obstacles but simply, more as necessary protocols for a new drug. I know that probably flies in the face of what doctors prefer, which is to take the easiest route for their patients and themselves, but this sounds like an opportunity to have a work around for those concerns with this group. I tried to lay out some simple numbers on Spencer Osborne's last piece and he felt that 15 doctors was likely the more attainable number of doctors that could be reached in one month by reps and their doctors that would consider prescribing Afrezzza. He said if MNKD would get 1% of the doctors to prescribe, after a visit from a MNKD rep, that would be his best model. I took his numbers and did 2% and 3% using $300 for the costs and came up with when MNKD could expect to break even. I'm not sure where he gets his numbers, except in his replies...that he's been around enough to know how doctors respond to new drugs.

Very impressive video with a staff that truly cares! I noticed Dr Madrid say they are looking for patients who are willing to try new things! Bingo, Afrezza fits the bill ! Sports, let us know when the MNKD rep meets with Walt & his staff. I would not be surprised if Big Mike rolls out with his rep on this meeting....

I can only imagine baba's fitness routine Well, it goes something like, "article, adjective, noun, verb, comma (perhaps semicolon), preposition, noun clause, parenthetical, whereas, wherein, inasmuch, now therefore, adverb, object, comma, noun, period." It that doesn't get one in shape, nothing will! |

I viewed the Rancho Family Medical Group video. They market themselves very well and I'm impressed that Walt encourages the staff to join him on his medical excursions to Haiti and the Philippines. Dr. Combs seems like a pretty cool doc. |

Very impressive video Sports! Thanks for sharing. This looks like a fantastic group practice with the right values and leadership. If they get behind Afrezza, good things will surely happen (hopefully, quickly). Chris C |

The diabetic seminar that Walts putting on that he wants MNKD to speak at isn't for 4 or 5 weeks. But it sounds like there will be many more doc's from all over. Not just Rancho Medical:-) So I don't know yet what Mike's going to do. Try and talk to Rancho M. right away, and then go back for the seminar? Not sure but Walts convinced that T2's do NOT want to go on shots when they need to, and that Afrezza is the ticket:-) He asked me all about how the teenagers dosed. I think he is going to love learning about Afrezza! |

I think he is going to love learning about Afrezza! I would think there are diabetic seminars at other places nationwide on a regular basis if this seminar is held there on a regular basis. MNKD needs to contact the organizers of those seminars. MNKD reps had better be inspired and get ideas from what you did, Sports. I know I would. |
