Selected Accomplishments
Reversed declining profits. In 2013, West Coast Dental's profits dropped
sharply. Analyzed operations. Discovered Doctors' schedules were not
full. Aligned human and other resources to demand. Increased Doctor
productivity by 25% and profits by 300% in six months.
Rebuilt the organization. West Coast Dental's productivity had been
plummeting. Created a new culture based on caring for the patients and
patient retention. Convinced employees and management that they were the
keys to having great patient relationships. Cut turnover, improved
productivity and increased profitability.
Increased productivity. Created a report of the ten most important office
performance indicators which became the dashboard for InterDent managers to
review daily. Increased one region's overall metrics by more than 25%.
Improved overall revenue by 13% and profit by 27% over the next 12 months.
Cut labor costs. Developed a tool to measure labor as a percentage of
revenue. Taught the management team how to use it and set labor cost
goals. After a short pilot, installed the tool throughout InterDent.
Trimmed labor costs by $3M in one year while maintaining peak levels of
customer satisfaction and quality.
Tapped an underutilized revenue source. While touring InterDent offices,
discovered that office managers were not reappointing all their patients.
Had the office managers track the number of patients coming in versus the
number of patients that left with an appointment. Raised reappointment
rates by 15% in 2 months.
Created a patient satisfaction survey tool. Collaborated with InterDent
management, professional and support personnel to develop and validate the
survey questions. Won an award for having created the best patient survey
process for the company.
Established recruiting processes, policies and standard. Developed an
interview process, and devised a marketing plan to hire high quality
dentists. Wrote InterDent's first Recruiting Manual which became the
standard for finding, interviewing and hiring professional and other
