Reviews and Reputation for Dental Practices

Reviews and reputation work is the habit of asking patients for honest reviews, answering every one, and watching what people say about your practice. It matters because new patients read a handful of reviews before they ever call your front desk.

Reputation is simply what patients say about you when you are not in the room. Reviews are where they say it out loud, and where the next patient reads it.

We set up a steady, honest way to ask patients for reviews. No pressure scripts, no gating. Patients who had a good visit get an easy way to say so.

When a review lands, we draft the reply. You approve it before it goes out, so your voice and your patient privacy rules stay yours. A reply to a complaint should never name a treatment or confirm someone was a patient, and a draft you approve keeps it that way.

Every review, from every site, shows up in one stream in your portal. You read them as they come in instead of hunting across tabs on a Friday afternoon.

Keep it short. We start with a conversation, and a few details make it a useful one.

Tell us what kind of dentistry you practice and whether you are acquiring a practice, launching a start-up, or running an established one. If you are buying, tell us when you close. Inherited reviews come with the practice, good and bad, and we would rather know before the sign is changed.

Mention any review that stings. Nobody has to be brave here. We see them all anyway, and it is easier to plan with the whole picture.
