“How To Create A Memorable Patient Experience in YOUR Practice”
We all want patients who say “yes” to treatment, show up on time, consistently reappoint, refer friends and family members and more. It’s not that difficult to accomplish, and it all begins with providing a memorable patient experience – from the time they call on the phone until the time they leave with a beautiful smile!
This fun, fast-paced course is perfect for all doctors and team members who want to easily take their practice to a level they never thought possible! In this course Dr. Madow takes a “deep dive” into steps that can turn any practice into one that is highly productive, extremely profitable, patient-centric, team oriented, and FUN! Plus, everyone will laugh so much they won’t believe they’re at a dental seminar!
Here are some of the things attendees will learn:
• Why patients say “no” to treatment and how to change that forever!
• Dr. Madow’s special secret for NEVER running late in your practice!
