Never Say THIS to a Dental Patient!

Never Say THIS to a Dental Patient! On this week’s episode of The Dental Practice Fixers podcast, we start with a discussion of things that should never be said to a dental patient. The amazing thing is that these are ALL things we have heard being said in dental practices across North America. Then we get to our calls of the week – two calls, two potential new patients – two complete failures. The team members who answered the phones were both extremely nice – but then they both totally botched it up.  What would The Dental Practice Fixers (Dr. Richard Madow and Dr. David Madow) do?
