will circle back. Our offi cial fee-for-service date was Jan. 1. For other dentists who are considering leaving the world of insurance-driven dentistry: * Do your homework. (Podcasts were great for me.) * Get your offi ce in beautiful physical shape-renovate, etc. * Build a great website with excellent SEO and get great Google reviews. * Remember, you must be likable: If your patients don't like or trust you, you might have a big uphill journey. * Your team must be 100% on board, excited and confi dent about the process. Educate them and give them scripts. Start with your management team and the excitement will trickle throughout your offi ce. * Oh, and do great dentistry. That's what patients are paying for!
