Consultant

When working with a dental practice as a consultant, Sandy serves in an advisory role to you. Through in-depth evaluations, observations, and interviews, she uncovers the practice’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT analysis). She then works with you to design an action plan to achieve your goals.

Coach

Once the game plan is set, Sandy puts on her coaching hat and jumps in to help your practice make positive change happen! In this coaching stage, Sandy provides hands-on team training, on-site or virtual, in-office continuing education seminars, and OSHA and HIPAA training sessions.

Speaker

Thanks to her in-depth experience with literally every role in the practice, she tailors energetic and informational presentations for study clubs to dental industry conferences. Mix and match to create your customized single or multi-segment break-out, half-day, or full-day session.

Baird Concepts’ Process

Analyze

What you can’t see can hurt you!

First, we analyze every aspect of your practice, comparing it to industry benchmarks and best-practices to uncover your strengths, weaknesses, threats, and opportunities.

A third-eye viewpoint can see things you can’t. Uncover the barriers preventing you from reaching your full potential.

Systematize

Less stress and greater rewards

Then, we develop a patient-oriented action plan to systemize the processes causing chaos in the office.

A system is never late for work, quits, or demands a paycheck. Design and implement systems to manage your practice, so you can focus on dentistry.

realize

Execute the plan and reap the rewards!

Enjoy the increased financial and psychological rewards of higher efficiency, less stress, fewer errors, more new patients, effective teamwork, and greater organization.

By integrating the recommendations, your practice will not just survive but thrive in this challenging new dental environment.
