Dentists often wonder why they don’t get more dental patient referrals. Why are they so haphazard? In this podcast, Larry Guzzardo, All-Star Dental Academy’s head instructor, discusses why patients don’t refer more often, how to encourage the team to get more referrals, how to track referrals, and using incentives to get more dental patient referrals. “I think the number one reason why the team doesn't ask for referrals more often is because there's no role model for them, they don't hear the doctor doing it.”
