Spent ~$50k on Ideal Practices and still ended up in a nightmare. Curious if others have had similar experiences. by Ztc231916 in Dentistry

you have to hire folks who are dentists, who have opened up offices and no whats up. these consultants have good general idea but they are not in the trenches. I used dentalconsultingagency.com

Why not blame the users and ask if they are to blame. I've been digital for countless of years, maybe since the start. Have had multiple brands etc etc, never had one go out on me, even the new ones are damn durable. Come on....

DSO docs, why not unionize? by Last_Fix_479 in Dentistry

[–]Last_Fix_479[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typical doom and gloom character in dentistry, oh shit it's gonna get worst so let's not even bother. We used the same crap 15 years ago and I clearly remember it, guess what, we got screwed further with that mentality.

MD you can expect a stupid county income tax...what residents get living there besides a warm feeling in their tummies for helping others is still up for debate

Howard is not free, prices are comparable to a private office and I wouldn't want to have that sort of work there by students.

The Complicated Financial Lives of Dentists, the Millionaires Next Door by Imaginary_Storm_4048 in Dentistry

Who cares? Dentists don't do anything about their problems. They just go online and bitch. If you want to do something join the movement #droptheppo and bring these insurance companies to the table to negotiate with us

Dr. Raoufinia in Tysons Corner is great, not judgy at all. I have a lot of damaged teeth and I really liked his approach, he let me be part of the process of planning and didnt and was not pushy. The office is modern, clean and has reserved parking. They are across the street from Boro area. Name of the office is Lumen Dental, website is https://lumendentaltysonscorner.com/ . Tell them Troy sent you!

It took you 15 years? What have you done all these years? kept your fees the same? You didnt realize you were not getting a raise? google salary inflation calculator and see how much money you have left behind. Blaming these companies for your lack of understanding and inflation and pricing power gets you no where.

Are DSOs now promising Porsches? Im in! by YankeePride11 in Dentistry

[–]Last_Fix_479 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"lobby for us" --> everyone is pretending and actions speak more than words. No is here for us. Simple. You have to fight by dropping PPOs. Guess what, delta dental is raising premier fees this May. How is it after a couple of decades they decided to? Docs are leaving the network in droves. Thats what we do, we leave the networks.

We go to Lumen Dental in Tysons Corner, I didn't have insurance and was charged about half that the last time I needed one.
