The world's #1 referral development company for 15+ years

Our team

A company built by people who have run a practice, with reps local to you.

We are not just a marketing company. We have owned and operated a healthcare practice, and we know what it takes to earn successful patient referrals. Our team has worked as pharmaceutical and medical device representatives, physician liaisons, consultants, doctors, and nurses.

Dr. David Rominski, founder of Doctor Referral Institute

Founder and President

Dr. David Rominski

Dr. Rominski owned and operated one of the largest physical medicine practices in the country for more than 12 years. When he looked at where his best patients came from, the ones with the right conditions, the right payer mix, and who followed through on care, the data pointed to one source: referrals from other providers.

He built a system to take care of those referral sources, hired someone with the skills and standards to represent his office, and spent the next decade refining it. That system became Doctor Referral Institute: face to face representation, referral protection, and reporting second to none.

Local reps, everywhere we work

Referral reps around the country, local to the markets they serve.

The people above lead the company. Every turn-key client gets a rep who lives and works in their market, so relationships with referring offices are built face to face by someone those offices already know.

Local referral reps

Face to face specialists based in your market who visit referring offices, build relationships with decision makers, and log every contact. They average 10 years of healthcare sales experience.

Territory directors

Leaders who own a region, manage its reps, and hold every client program in their territory to our standard. Turn-key programs run in 20+ states today, and we add people every month.

Where they come from

Pharmaceutical and medical device sales, account management, physician liaison roles, healthcare consulting, and clinical care.
