Ep. 135: Buying Another Dentist’s Charts—Is it a Good Idea?
April 15, 2024 09:00 - 24 minutes - 22.7 MBThis seems like the simplest way to create growth: simply buy a retiring doctor’s patient database and incorporate them into your own practice. It’s easier and faster than marketing on your own to attract new patients, right? Well…maybe. We’ve seen it go well but also go very poorly, depending on how the initial arrangements were made and the approach to onboarding patients. So this week, Jeff discusses when this is a good idea, when it’s a big waste of time and money, and how to successfull...

Ep. 133: The Most Difficult Part of Case Acceptance
April 01, 2024 09:00 - 35 minutes - 32 MBMost dentists are pretty comfortable explaining the diagnosis and treatment plan to the patient.

March 10, 2024 10:00 - 23 minutes - 21.1 MBMore and more dentists are starting to rethink the traditional payment model.

February 26, 2024 10:00 - 20 minutes - 18.6 MBBeing a dental practice owner can be a little tricky because it’s hard to know exactly what’s going on elsewhere in the office while you’re busy chairside. And this isn’t just a problem for dentists, but really any business owner.

So this week, Jeff discusse...
Ep. 127: When to Look at Your Practice Metrics
February 19, 2024 10:00 - 21 minutes - 19.3 MBWe all know we’re supposed to track metrics (or “key performance indicators”) for our businesses. However, oftentimes this just boils down to looking at a chart and thinking, “Oh, last month was bad,” or “last month was good”…but now it’s too late to do anything about it. When you don’t use it in real time, it becomes curious but ultimately useless information. So in this episode, Jeff discusses how to actively track key information and use it to actually improve efficiency and meet your goa...

January 29, 2024 10:00 - 25 minutes - 23.2 MBIt can be a delicate balance finding the right amount of time to schedule for new patient appointments. Too little time and you’re too rushed to form a good relationship and present their treatment plan properly. Too much time and it starts eating into more productive procedures.

January 08, 2024 10:00 - 24 minutes - 22.7 MBBeing solidly booked out weeks (or even months) into the future can give you a feeling of security…but it can also severely limit your schedule flexibility and growth potential.
