    026 How to Find Exceptional, Dependable, and Yes, Loyal (Dental) Team Members.

    In this Episode of the Efficient Practice Podcast, I discuss simple actionable steps to gain exceptional team members. Back story...A memory popped up in my Facebook feed…prompting me to make this video of some some simple steps you can implement now to attract high-performing loyal team members... One of the things that I'm most proud of is the relationships I've cultivated with team members. I sold my dental practice in 2012, and until this day, I am still in contact with many of them. After selling, I've lived and worked in different states, and have had this same experience with team members across the country. I hear many colleagues and practice owners express difficulty in finding and keeping loyal employees. There is truly a system and an art to creating an environment conducive to finding people who are exceptional, dependable, and yes, loyal. It can be done if you know the proper steps... Not only did I find such employees or as I like to call them team members, but I also still receive messages from them all the time. There are many podcasts you could listen to, thanks for choosing mine.  Please take a moment to share and review.

    025 Better Patient Scheduling: No Skates Required- New Practice Series

    In this episode of The Efficient Practice Podcast, I discuss Better Patient Scheduling that doesn't require roller skates.  Many times, I hear dentists complain of schedules that are too jammed packed, resulting in not having enough time to complete procedures, running behind, working through lunch and working late.  This poor scheduling can keep the doctor and team 'busy' which does not equal productive.  Days where it seems as if the the team has seen a gazillion patients all to find out that the end of day reports reveal they haven't been productive or better yet profitable can increase stress, mistakes and fatigue for the entire office team. Rest assured there is a better way, and this episode elaborates on how the doctor must take control and create a schedule that runs efficiently with less stress and yes, more productivity and profitability.  No Roller Skates Required! During this New Practice Series, topics and systems will be addressed that allow the practice owner to set up their dental practice the right way from the beginning thus enabling their practice to quickly achieve productivity and profitability all while eliminating stress.
