Description

More important than being a skilled clinician is being a caring one. Dr. Michael Sonick is an internationally renowned periodontist who has learned this through personal experience, as both a patient himself and as a very successful practitioner.

And what’s really interesting is how technology like Toothapps® can actually support dentists in experiencing the benefits of being caring, people-centric providers.

Instead of de-personalizing care, technology saves time for busy dentists and specialists who can, in turn, spend more time showing personal interest and hospitality to their patients.

You’re in for a real treat with this episode of The Patient First Podcast in which Dr. Sonick shares one gem after another that can help practices build solid teams and loyal patient bases. We talk culture versus strategy, AI, how to choose team leaders, and much more in this captivating interview.

I’m Dr. Bryan Laskin—a fellow author and dentist who believes in patient-first care, and an engineer of solutions that support it.
