            What 
              to Expect 
              Answers to your specific questions! 
              You will discover what your patients think your practice, You, your 
              dental technique, your Hygienist, your office, your staff, your 
              hours and availability, your location, your parking, the effectiveness 
              of your dental hygiene education program, and other, even more specifically 
              directed, information. You’ll also find out if your patients 
              know of all the categories of new patients you accept! You can also 
              find out about some major or minor changes you are considering for 
              your practice, such as: adding an Associate, working more on children, 
              adding (or removing) equipment or services, changing locations or 
              hours 
               
              You will discover what is 
              the most important aspect of your practice to your patients! 
              Also, you will find out what your patients would recommend you change 
              and what you are doing best. Too many Dentists see too many ‘one 
              time only’ patients! Our survey is designed to find out why, 
              and give you specific information to make corrections to reduce 
              the number of ‘one time only’ patients in your practice! 
               
              First, we interview you, and take your practice information and 
              objectives into consideration, then we create a survey for your 
              specific practice. We provide almost everything! We ship, directly 
              to you, specific bundles of prepaid postage surveys to be mailed 
              from your office. The surveys 
              are bundled by group. This 
              grouping addresses the opinions from many types of patients: best, 
              families, inactive, and more. 
               
              Your patients send the completed survey directly to us! We compile 
              the data and all comments, then we present to you a detailed report 
              with volumes of information. You will be able to make decisions 
              (critical decisions!) that will ensure the continued success and 
              growth of your practice. 
             
              Other great effects 
                of PSS Surveys:  
             
            Reactivation of patients! 
            – The PSS Survey 
            reminds them how well you treated them in the past. 
             Referrals! - 
            When patients see all the categories you treat. 
             Confidence from your surveyed patients! 
            - When they are complimented that you selected them for their opinion! 
            Greater appreciation from your patients! 
            – When 
            they learn you changed aspects of your practice to meet their needs! 
            This meets the true definition of Quality! 
              
              Can 
              you accept constructive criticism? 
            Dentists are confident in their ability 
              to provide great dental care to their patients. Results from the 
              PSS Survey will be honest and sincere input from your patients. 
              Understanding and accepting their comments is not always easy. Additionally, 
              you cannot simply conduct the PSS Survey and have no further contact 
              with your patients concerning the survey! You must make decisions 
              as a result of the survey information. Your decision may be to incorporate 
              or not to incorporate change; but, you must tell your patients you 
              conducted the survey, what was discovered, and what you are going 
              to do with that information. 
            If 
              not… 
             If you know that you wouldn’t change 
              any aspect of your practice regardless of what your patients might 
              think, say, or do… your PSS Survey results may be of little 
              value to you.
