[/heading][divider line_type="Full Width Line" line_thickness="3" divider_color="accent-color" custom_height="50"] In this episode, The Dental Practice Fixers make three secret shopper calls with the same premise - “My dentist is close to my workplace, but because I’ve been working from home, I want to find a dentist closer to home. That’s you! Are you seeing new patients?” Should be a slam dunk, right? Find out what happened. Hint – it’s not good! We also give a great tip about kindness in the dental office. It’s easy! And if you have a question that you would like answered on our podcast, or if you would like us to call YOUR office, please email us at [email protected]. You might be the office that gets it right!
