In this episode, we are joined by Amol Nirgudkar to tackle one of the biggest challenges in modern dental practices: maintaining a steady flow of high-value patients and maximizing appointment scheduling efficiency. We explore how digital marketing and direct-to-consumer strategies have transformed patient acquisition while uncovering pitfalls like missed calls—25-30% of which go unanswered during business hours—and low scheduling rates, with only 55-60% of calls leading to appointments. Our guest shares actionable insights on boosting these numbers to 80-85% using tools like AI, ensuring the right patients fill your schedule without compromising your practice’s fit.
