Her message to Dentists & Meeting Planners:
“I am an expert on retention in the dental office. I absolutely believe it makes no sense to invest time and money to hire the right person, or attract the perfect patient, if you don’t have a plan to exceed their expectations so they can’t imagine working somewhere else or going to another dentist.
My two courses “Forensic Hiring” and “How to C your Way Clear to Outstanding Communication, Customer Service and Continuing Care” are both informative, upbeat and full of take-away tidbits for dentists and their teams.
I speak to dental study clubs and organizations across the United States & in England focusing on strategies to hire, train and retain the person who will fit the culture of the practice, and how to create a culture that embraces excellent communication and extraordinary patient service skills.
I want to speak for your organization, and bring this expertise to your audience.”

"Your ears must have been burning! I am very sincere when I say we were just talking about you! Kate has been a godsend, thanks to you. She has been a wonderful manager. Kevin and I went into the office a few days ago to try and figure out some of issues of COVID-19 as they impact payroll, unemployment, vacation time, etc, and what Kate had done to keep the insurance and mail coming despite our not being on site. We said a thank you to you for helping us find her, and how we couldn’t find a "Kate" today if we tried!"
