Team productivity insight

Instead of just being productive myself as a doctor, we needed to be productive as a whole team.

Remote work flexibility

Most of our team members work remotely. In my role, I have my clients assigned to me and I can schedule my calls with each office accordingly.

Empower the whole team for productivity

I went to PDA again and I took my whole team and just let's empower everybody, let's now we're taking different aspects from that, that conference and instead of, of being productive, just myself as a doctor, now, it's let's be productive as a whole team and I think that's kind of the biggest switch is if I've always wanted to ease into that, but I haven't been able to, because my practice hasn't been to the point that it's allowed it to where it's allowed me to step back and now I have a team that can feed off it a little bit.

Team productivity transformation through PDA workshop

Instead of just being productive myself as a doctor, we needed to be productive as a whole team. I went to PDA again and I took my whole team and just let's empower everybody. Let's now we're taking different aspects from that, that conference and instead of, of being productive, just myself as a doctor, now, it's let's be productive as a whole team and I think that's kind of the biggest switch. You must have your eye on the prize, you must do your daily huddles, you must do your morning huddles, and you must be consistent

Great culture, high level pros

Amazing culture, especially for a place where pretty much everyone is remote. Clients are also made part of that culture, which is awesome. Great work/life balance. I'm making friends here which is pretty great. Meetings are typically short and don't take up much time. The people are experts in their field, they support each other in tangible ways, they don't do lip service on their mission, they talk the talk and then walk the walk, don't work themselves to death, they do an EXCELLENT job of building culture and community w/ employees AND clients, they have fun together and clients, they love and consider feedback

This is a company that cares about its employees both personally and professionally

Good concepts but expensive for a solo practice

PDA has solid content around productivity and patient communication. The workshop was excellent and the speakers were engaging. However, the full coaching program is quite expensive for a solo practitioner. I got value from the workshop alone but could not justify the ongoing coaching fees.

Marketing services did not deliver promised results

Signed up for PDA coaching plus their marketing package. The coaching portion was decent with good accountability structures. However, the marketing services significantly underperformed what was promised during the sales process. After 8 months I switched to a local agency and saw better results at a fraction of the cost.

PDA workshop changed my perspective on production

Attended the Productive Dentist Academy workshop last year and it genuinely shifted how I think about scheduling and case presentation. My production increased 22% in the first 6 months after implementing their systems. The one-on-one coaching calls keep you accountable.
