DEPENDABLE, RELIABLE DENTAL BUSINESS CONSULTANTS
FROM A LEADER YOU NEED TO KNOW —RICK GAROFOLO
In the beginning, there was simply a title of a dental business consultant, otherwise known as Rick. He was completing one of his speaking engagements at a hotel conference about using Quickbooks when it all happened.
The first long day of the seminar came to a close, and he was approached by one of the attendees. That’s when he heard it: He was like a mechanic — Fixing the root of most dental practice owners’ problems that seem to occur day in and day out. That’s the moment when it all came together. Rick Garofolo changed from a simple dental business consultant to something greater — The Practice Mechanic.
Real-World Experience That Really Means Something
Dental business consultants seem to be everywhere these days, backed by promises of big profits. But do they have the experience and expertise to back it up? That’s what’s different about Rick Garofolo. You’re talking about someone who actually worked in and owned dental offices.
As The Dental Practice Mechanics started to grow, Rick Garofolo found himself consulting for and working with practices spanning the entire country, with 15 to 20 clients at a time. He was on the job one day when an OSHA inspector did what they do best — a thorough inspection. The process and the results inspired him. He went on to become an OSHA-Authorized Outreach Trainer. Then HIPAA came for an inspection. Now it was time to learn how these laws affect dental practices as a Certified HIPAA Professional and Certified Security Compliance Specialist.
He’s a dental business consultant who knows his stuff because there’s not much he hasn’t experienced firsthand.
Meet Your Mechanics
Do you want to know something else we learned in the very beginning? Too many clients complained that they only had one person in the office who knew how to handle insurance, with that certain someone knowing how invaluable this could be — issues and headaches for everyone often followed. This led Rick to create our very own “virtual front desk” team, offering outsourcing for practices in this same situation.
Our virtual front desk clients skyrocketed from 0 to 20 in the first month alone. Every single one of our team members works in our office full time. We don’t rely on work-from-home contractors. We’re a group of dental business consultants who want clients to WANT to work with us, not HAVE to work with us.
Have confidence knowing that the entire team at The Dental Practice Mechanics is wholeheartedly dedicated to helping dentists across the country grow their business and increase profitability. We learned from the best to help the rest — like YOU.
