Critical Questions That Get Your Patients To Say Yes!

If you've ever wondered why some patients hesitate to move forward with treatment, you're not alone. Case acceptance isn't just about presenting a treatment plan—it's about understanding the psychology behind a "yes."

That's why I’ve invited the highly respected Debra Engelhardt Nash to the Raving Patients Podcast. With decades of experience in dental consulting and coaching, Debra knows exactly how to help dental teams transform their patient conversations into powerful case acceptance strategies.

In This Episode, We Cover:

✅ The key questions that make patients feel understood and ready to commit
✅ Why the front desk team is your best (or worst) case acceptance tool
✅ How to handle the dreaded "Do you take my insurance?" question
✅ Strategies to eliminate financial objections before they even come up
✅ The role of trust, team endorsement, and second opinions in case acceptance

With insights from Debra’s extensive career—including her experience at the Nash Institute for Dental Learning—you’ll walk away with actionable tactics that will immediately boost patient conversions.
