Welcome to Dental Suite 903 with Josh and Allison Bernstein.
With 20 years as a fee for service practice under their belts they've seen it, done it and are here to share it all with you. Whether you're a new dentist wondering how to build your practice, a seasoned professional struggling with the challenges of insurance or a front office manager wondering what the hell to say on those uncomfortable calls, they've got you covered. Stories, tips, solutions, all real, all unfiltered and all meant to help you reduce your stress, increase your profits and make your professional life much more rewarding.
In a world where dentists are obsessed with insurance guidelines, we're missing out on the 68.5 million adults in the U.S. who dont have any dental isnurance at all. Why not make catering to them a priority? After all, people without dental insurance also need care. You can give them the care they need while decreasing your involvement with insurance.
