Listen Later

How do we make our patients leave our practice with a great story to tell about us? Stories that get us more patients through word-of-mouth referrals, better reviews, and overall patient satisfaction and retention. In this episode of the Savvy Dentist Podcast, I’ve invited Dennis Snow who has had 20 years working on customer experience with the Disney Corporation. He is currently a full-time speaker, trainer, consultant, and is also the author of two books entitled Lessons from the Mouse and Unleashing Excellence. Our interesting conversation revolves around his journey, the lessons he has learned, and lessons from Disney that you can directly apply to your own dental practice.
