Attended 3 times — still pick up new things every time

This was my third time attending a Scott Leune seminar and I still filled 4 pages of notes. Each time I attend, I am at a different stage of growth so different things resonate. First time I was a solo practice doing $700K. Now I have 4 locations doing $4.5M combined. Scott frameworks scaled with me every step of the way. The networking alone is worth it. I have met my current operations directo...

Pros

✓Content stays relevant as you grow
✓Excellent networking opportunities
✓Frameworks scale from 1 to many locations
✓High-caliber attendee community

Cons

✗Some overlap if attending multiple times

My dentist sent me and it changed our entire office culture

My boss sent me to the seminar with her and it was the best thing she could have done for our practice. Scott does not just talk to the doctors — he speaks to the whole team and makes everyone feel like they are part of the mission. I came back with a completely new understanding of how the business works and why the systems matter. I used to just do my job. Now I understand HOW my job impacts th...

Pros

✓Incredibly valuable for team members, not just doctors
✓Makes team understand the business impact of their role
✓Morning huddle framework is a game-changer
✓Empowering for non-clinical staff

Even as a specialist, this was incredibly relevant

I was worried the content would be too GP-focused, but Scott covers universal business principles that apply to any dental practice. The team management section was exactly what I needed — my front desk was a mess and I could not figure out why. Scott diagnosed my problem in 5 minutes during the break: I had no systems, just people doing their best with no playbook. He gave me a framework to buil...

Pros

✓Applicable to specialists, not just GPs
✓Team management framework is transformative
✓Scott is accessible and helpful during breaks
✓Systems-based approach works for any practice

Cons

✗A few GP-specific examples did not apply to me

Doubled my take-home in 8 months following his playbook

The numbers speak for themselves. Before Scott seminar: take-home was about $180K on $1.1M production. 8 months after implementing his systems: take-home is $340K on $1.3M production. The overhead reduction alone accounts for most of that. His supply cost negotiation framework saved me $4,200/month. His staffing model helped me restructure my team without firing anyone — just reassigning roles mo...

Pros

✓Measurable financial results
✓Supply cost negotiation framework is gold
✓Staffing model is practical and humane
✓Results come quickly if you implement

Cons

✗Requires discipline to implement everything

Scott genuinely cares that you understand the material

What struck me most was how Scott would stop and make sure the room understood a concept before moving on. He is not just presenting slides — he is teaching. He would use 3 different analogies until the whole room got it. The Q&A portions were incredibly generous. He stayed after both days answering individual questions. I got 20 minutes of one-on-one advice about my specific situation that was w...

Pros

✓Scott ensures everyone understands
✓Generous Q&A and one-on-one time
✓Multiple teaching approaches for each concept
✓Perfect for first-time buyers

After 15 years of ownership, I learned more in 2 days than the last 5 years combined

I own 2 practices and have been doing this for 15 years. Thought I knew what I was doing. Scott showed me exactly where I was leaving money on the table and how my overhead was 8% higher than it should be. I am completely revamping how I run both practices based on what I learned. The KPI tracking system alone is worth the price. My team is already responding to the changes positively. I only wi...

Pros

✓Eye-opening even for experienced owners
✓Specific KPI tracking systems
✓Practical overhead reduction strategies
✓Applicable to multi-location practices

Cons

✗Wish I found it sooner

10/10 — energizing, packed with actionable info

I went in skeptical because I have been to so many dental seminars that promise the world. Scott is different. He is clear, direct, and refreshingly honest. No pushy sales tactics, just pure education with practical, well-thought-out strategies backed by real-world examples. I took 5 pages of notes on day one alone. The overhead reduction strategies paid for the seminar within my first month of i...

Pros

✓Clear and direct teaching style
✓No pushy sales tactics
✓Strategies pay for themselves quickly
✓Excellent real-world examples

Gave me the confidence to buy my first practice

I was an associate for 6 years, terrified of ownership because I had zero business training. A colleague recommended Scott"s seminar and I signed up on a whim. Best decision I made. Scott demystifies the business side of dentistry completely. By the end of the 2-day seminar, I had a clear picture of what good overhead looks like, how to evaluate a practice for purchase, and what KPIs to track fro...

Pros

✓Perfect for associates considering ownership
✓Financial benchmarks are incredibly useful for due diligence
✓Builds genuine confidence about the business side
✓Well-structured and easy to follow

Cons

✗Less startup-specific content than expected
✗More geared toward existing practice optimization

Solid seminar — the team training module alone was worth it

Went to the 2-day seminar in Phoenix with my office manager. The single biggest takeaway was the team communication and delegation framework. Scott taught us how to set up morning huddles, afternoon debriefs, and weekly team meetings with actual structure instead of the chaos we had before. My OM and I left with a shared playbook we could implement Monday morning. Within 2 weeks our no-show rate ...

Pros

✓Team communication framework is immediately actionable
✓Bringing your OM/team lead makes it 10x more valuable
✓Engaging presentation style
✓Real case studies, not just theory

Cons

✗Second day felt rushed
✗Q&A time could be longer

The dental business education we never got in school

I"ve been to probably 15 different dental CE events and coaching programs over my career. Scott Leune"s seminars are in a league of their own when it comes to business education. What sets Scott apart is that he doesn"t just motivate — he teaches with DATA. Real numbers, real benchmarks, real systems. He"ll show you exactly what your supply costs should be as a percentage, what your staffing rati...

Pros

✓Data-driven, not just motivational
✓Specific benchmarks and KPIs you can use immediately
✓Great for scaling from 1 to multiple locations
✓Networking with other ambitious practice owners
✓Scott genuinely cares about attendees" success

Cons

✗Content may overlap if you attended Breakaway previously

Completely transformed how I run my practice — worth every penny

I attended the Practice Management Mastery Level I seminar in 2024 and it changed everything for me. Before Scott"s seminar, I was working 5 days a week, doing everything myself, and barely taking home what I should have been. Scott broke down exactly where my overhead was out of control and gave me a clear roadmap to fix it. Within 6 months of implementing his systems, I reduced my overhead by 1...

Pros

✓Clear, actionable systems you can implement immediately
✓Team-led practice model actually works
✓Reduced overhead by 12% in 6 months
✓Scott speaks from real experience running practices
✓Excellent ROI on seminar cost

Cons

✗You need to actually implement — not a magic bullet

Valuable for new dentists but expensive for the format

As a new grad considering practice ownership, I found Scott's seminar incredibly eye-opening. Business school for dentists is basically what this is. He breaks down the numbers behind running a dental practice in a way that dental school never taught us. The seminar I attended was well-organized, the slides were polished, and the Q&A sessions were helpful. Scott clearly knows his stuff and has re...

Pros

✓Excellent business education for dentists
✓Clear, data-driven presentation style
✓Good for understanding practice financials

Cons

✗Expensive for new graduates
✗Pressure tactics to upsell coaching on the spot
✗Much of the info available through free resources

Breakaway was better — the new stuff feels recycled

I attended Breakaway Seminars twice back in 2019 and 2021, and they were genuinely transformative for my practice. When Scott split from Breakaway, I was excited to see what he'd do independently. Unfortunately, the Scott Leune Education seminars feel like a rehash of the old Breakaway content with a new coat of paint. The core strategies are the same — reduce overhead, build systems, let your te...

Pros

✓Solid foundational practice management principles
✓Scott is a genuinely knowledgeable speaker

Cons

✗Content feels recycled from Breakaway Seminars
✗Higher pricing for similar material
✗Confusing split between Breakaway and Scott Leune brands
✗Not much new for returning attendees

Good content but felt like a sales funnel for more programs

Attended the Practice Management Mastery seminar in Dallas. Scott is an incredible speaker — very data-driven and clear. The content on reducing overhead and improving systems was genuinely helpful. I implemented several changes and saw a noticeable improvement in my numbers within 3 months. However, the seminar felt like it was constantly upselling to the next level of coaching or the next semin...

Pros

✓Scott is an excellent, data-driven speaker
✓Practical systems for reducing overhead
✓Good framework for team-led practice model

Cons

✗Constant upselling to more expensive programs
✗Free content is basically marketing for paid seminars
✗Gets expensive if you keep buying the next level
