E23: AI Is Killing Patient Loyalty in Dentistry | The Dental Truth Project

Описание: JW Oliver, Founder of SupportDDS with 40 Years in Dentistry, Reveals Why Your Labor "Solution" is Making Things Worse: The dental industry's obsession with AI and automation is backfiring spectacularly - practices are hemorrhaging the human connection patients crave while throwing technology at problems that don't need tech fixes.

Key Revelations:
The AI Hype vs. Reality Check
✅ The question isn't "Can AI do it?" but "Should AI do it?" - and practices are finally asking the right question
✅ Initial phone calls from new/existing patients - 90% of callers frantically demand a real person within 30 seconds when greeted by AI
✅ Treatment consultation conversations - Patients spending $700-$50K on dental work want empathy, compassion, and a human voice they can trust
✅ Appointment scheduling with questions - Bots can't read emotional cues or address anxiety that keeps patients from booking


💡 The "Ask Ken" Question:
"My accountant says my numbers are fine, but why do I still feel broke?"

Ken's answer: "Fine" means tax compliant - it doesn't mean you're maximizing cash flow. You can have clean books and still be flying blind. The solution? Implement a cash flow forecast (4-13 weeks out) so you can see what's coming. When you can forecast three months ahead, the nervousness evaporates because you have time to solve any payroll crunch or cash hiccup before it becomes a crisis. Taxes and cash flow compete - especially at year-end - so stop confusing compliance with optimization.
