Q4 is not a sprint in December, it is a result of what happened months before. If you wait until October to fix performance, you've already lost momentum.

My friend Carrie Webber of Jameson Management is back to unpack why so many dental practices feel stuck heading into year end. Shrinking profit, rising overhead and salary pressure expose weak spots that get overlooked when the team is stretched. She focused on "inspecting what is expected," from phone skills that guide new patient decision-making to effective scheduling that gets people in the door.

Carrie explains why patient attrition quietly cancels new patient growth, why accounts receivable snowballs when systems are not managed intentionally, and why office managers need clear public support to coach the team with accountability. You won't want to miss this one - Carrie is as sharp as she is fun!
