About us

Each dentist defines success in his or her own manner

Almost all can do so in hindsight. Too few do so with foresight. It is well known that those who can clearly define their measures of success and envision the process of reaching their goals, have the highest probability of achievement. We have worked with over a thousand dentists who, combined, express a great variety of individual aspirations. What is shared though is the desire to be altruistic, achieve professional fulfillment, and gain a reasonable level of profitability. Perry Consulting Inc. is helping dentists achieve their personal version of professional success.

"Thank so much for coming through and helping us continue the instruction even through we are "locked down" for COVID-19. This is all right on our wheel house, to provide the proper treatment for each patient and charge a fair fee for both the office and the patient. We have the communication skills to educate but you gave us a platform to start from. Over used term but "We couldn’t have done it without you.""

"Michael is a class-act professional who coached me and my team through a highly successful transition to an insurance-independent model of practice. He helped us analyze our practice's fitness to withstand the transition, worked with us to create a step-by-step plan to communicate the change to patients in a way that maximized patient retention, and walked us through the process and timing of canceling our provider contract. What I really appreciate is that Michael is not just a dental consultant, he's a dentist who has lived what he teaches."

Thoughts on Dental Practice Reentry

During the COVID-19 crisis, my confidence in our political leaders and those who report on them has ebbed to a remarkably low level. It seems that since there is so little that is actually known about the etiology and rates of infection, scientific veracity has been replaced by platitudes and hyperbole.

The Trade-offs Inherent in Dental Practice Reentry

Last week I responded to an email from a dentist who practices within my CDA component, the Redwood Empire Dental Society. He/she is an associate employed by a doctor I’ve never met.
