With an alarming growth of angry and unhappy people in the world, it’s not a surprise that the dental field is seeing its fair share. As disappointing as it is to have an angry, unhappy, or even volatile patient, it only gets harder when a dentist considers the options for dealing with the angry patient. What should a doctor and team do with the unhappy customer? Should they seek to reconcile? Should they send a termination letter? Should they call the person? So many options, each with their own pluses and minuses. In this episode, Dr. Kuba and Bethany discuss a few different angry patient scenarios. They each share their perspective on how they think it should be handled. Finally, Bethany encourages all listeners to pick a consistent response – one that can be implemented across most circumstances.

Patient care is often a shared process among various providers. Dentists must coordinate care with dental specialists like oral surgeons, orthodontists, periodontists, pediatric dentists, and endodontists and vice versa. In addition, dental professionals must coordinate care among medical providers to obtain medical clearances as well as important information regarding medicines/pre-medication recommendations. This coordinated effort is a critical aspect of providing premium quality care for patients. In this episode, Dr. Kuba and Bethany discuss the importance of this process while also talking about the things that often go wrong in the process. Together, they have tips and suggestions for improving relationships amongst referral sources.

In this episode, Dr. Kuba walks through a recent injury that occurred in her practice. She and Bethany discuss the nuances of what the team should and should not say and do. They also discuss the importance of making sure your team is trained and ready for the occurrence. This is definitely an episode you do not want to miss!
