Schedule earlier mornings

Written by Reed Tinsley | October 3, 2008

Many more physicians should consider an approach that dentists increasingly find both popular and profitable. They could schedule office hours starting at 7 a.m., seeing a number of patients before they go to work.

Staff members coming in at 7 a.m. could finish work in time to pick up children from school. You might end office hours at noon, at 2 p.m., or any other time mid-day, so the early start will help get you home on time that evening.

As has worked so well for dentists, you might find a 7 a.m. starting time makes your life better while it serves your patients’ changing needs.
