"You really can have the successful practice you desire; enjoy going to work each day, have a patient base that happily refers to you and enjoy worry-free time away from the office." - Mary Fisher-Day "Hiring Mary as my Dental Consultant was the best thing I ever did for my Practice. She helped me reach 5 and 10 year goals in less than 2 years. Her ability to evaluate my Practice, find the problem areas and address those areas with results, in a very short period of time, amazed me. I actually have a life outside the office and the financial freedom I hoped to have 10 years from now." -Dr. James Richardson Before hiring Mary, we had no idea where our overhead stood. We knew something was out of whack but didn't know where to begin to find the problem. Mary evaluated our overhead, pointed out areas that were in line and areas that needed work. With her help we now have systems in place to monitor our overhead and have the knowledge and tools to keep it in line. In addition, we have fine-tuned our business office and have collections consistently at 98% or above. Our recall percentage is well above the norm and our Hygiene department is more efficient and productive than we ever thought it could be. It's nice to have a competent, dependable Consultant who listens and will tailor Management for the individual needs of the practice." -Doctors Doug and Cathy Smith
