Our philosophy is to treat,
not patients, but people.
00:00:05.667 --> 00:00:08.733 line:95% align:center position:50%
All my team are on the same page
from the moment a patient calls in.
00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:13.500 line:95% align:center position:50%
I always introduce myself,
bring them back, show the office,
00:00:13.633 --> 00:00:15.066 line:95% align:center position:50%
tell them what we're going to do,
00:00:15.133 --> 00:00:18.033 line:95% align:center position:50%
ask them if they have any questions
for me or for the doctor.
00:00:18.433 --> 00:00:21.633 line:95% align:center position:50%
Very different atmosphere,
very different vibe walking in,
00:00:22.100 --> 00:00:24.600 line:95% align:center position:50%
the greeting, the comfort,
and just understanding.
00:00:24.667 --> 00:00:28.680 line:95% align:center position:50%
To me, that has changed my outlook
on dentistry completely.
00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:33.500 line:95% align:center position:50%
Helping patient to be comfortable
while we're going through treatment,
00:00:33.567 --> 00:00:35.600 line:95% align:center position:50%
it starts with communication.
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:41.933 line:95% align:center position:50%
The philosophy that guides
our team is precision with care.
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.800 line:95% align:center position:50%
We as a team are constantly
in communication with each other.
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:50.033 line:95% align:center position:50%
Every morning, we have morning huddles
where we actually go through schedule.
00:00:50.100 --> 00:00:51.133 line:95% align:center position:50%
I guess it starts off
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.320 line:95% align:center position:50%
when they are calling
for consultation appointment,
00:00:54.500 --> 00:00:59.160 line:95% align:center position:50%
and we'll listen to their needs,
making sure they're being heard.
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.800 line:95% align:center position:50%
I walked into the office,
they greeted me.
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.433 line:95% align:center position:50%
Even though I was very nervous,
they made me feel comfortable.
00:01:04.500 --> 00:01:07.880 line:95% align:center position:50%
They sat me down,
and I did not have a long wait at all.
00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:11.267 line:95% align:center position:50%
Majority of the time,
the patient does look nervous,
00:01:11.433 --> 00:01:15.333 line:95% align:center position:50%
so I would explain to them
that I do understand that today
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:18.520 line:95% align:center position:50%
you might feel nervous,
and we will go from there.
00:01:18.600 --> 00:01:23.160 line:95% align:center position:50%
We try to alleviate that fear and make
that process for them as easy as possible.
00:01:23.233 --> 00:01:27.373 line:95% align:center position:50%
Dr. Mark and his team, it was very caring.
00:01:27.440 --> 00:01:31.833 line:95% align:center position:50%
After the first patient visit
and they understand a path forward,
00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:36.133 line:95% align:center position:50%
they feel like they can actually see
how this can get resolved.
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:38.633 line:95% align:center position:50%
It was a life change for me.
00:01:39.440 --> 00:01:44.033 line:95% align:center position:50%
I was able again to eat without concern.
00:01:44.600 --> 00:01:48.333 line:95% align:center position:50%
When I opened my practice in 2018,
I had that goal in mind,
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:51.433 line:95% align:center position:50%
just to provide
an individualized care to patients
00:01:51.500 --> 00:01:53.233 line:95% align:center position:50%
based on their needs and goals.
00:01:53.600 --> 00:01:56.733 line:95% align:center position:50%
We do care, and we treat them as people,
not patients.
