New Study by Sterling Reveals Top Area of Stress for Dental Practice Owners is Holes in the Appointment Book

Sterling announces results of its study on management issues in dental practices.

Los Angeles, CA, August 09, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Running a dental practice generates its own high-stress management issues for dentists, according to a research study conducted by Sterling, a management consulting firm located in Southern California. The recently-completed study was based on extensive polling of nearly 400 dentists from around the country.

“Keeping the appointment book full for a dental practice is not as simple as it appears,” says Barbara Wilson, president of Sterling. “It requires the proper scheduling techniques and having the right staff to effectively field cancellations and new callers. These are crucial elements to moving a practice to the next level and beyond.”

The study also revealed these areas of concern for practice owners:

44% worry about cancellations and too few patients.

38% complain of too little profit.

30% have difficulty finding the right staff.
