The importance of a consultant to your practice - "As a doctor and business owner, you are the expert in your field of study.

The benefits of bringing an expert in to put all of those pieces together for you, in your facility, is crucial.

What an incredible way to pour back into the doctors who continue to support your practice! 👏🏼✨⁠
⁠
Our very own Diana, Partner & Director of Consulting at Shimmin Consulting, had the opportunity to join one of our amazing clients, Loew & Patel Orthodontics, for a CE event they hosted for their referring doctors.⁠
⁠
Diana spoke on “Leadership Systems That Keep Teams Accountable,” sharing practical strategies for creating stronger leadership, clearer expectations, and a culture of accountability within the practice.⁠
⁠
We absolutely LOVE seeing the Loew & Patel team intentionally invest back into their referring offices. These doctors trust them with their patients every single day, and creating an event that provides education, connection, and value is such a meaningful way to say thank you for that trust and partnership. ❤️⁠
⁠
Thank you to the entire Loew & Patel Orthodontics team for allowing Shimmin Consulting to be a small part of such a great event and way to go, Diana! 👏🏼

🎙️ EPISODE 22: Are You Leading Every Generation the Same Way?⁠
⁠
Because if you are… you may be missing the mark. 👀⁠
⁠
Today on Between Two Molars, we’re talking about what it really takes to lead a multigenerational orthodontic team.⁠
⁠
Different generations may need communication, feedback, and leadership delivered differently. And for many of our younger team members, it’s not just about having a job. They’re looking for guidance, growth, direction, and a clear picture of what’s next.⁠
⁠
The question becomes: Are we creating an environment where our team can actually see their opportunity to grow?⁠
⁠
Leadership isn’t just about giving feedback. It’s about creating an interactive conversation, understanding the person in front of you, and recognizing that the way you want to be led may not be the way they need to be led.⁠
⁠
🎧 Episode 22 is live on YouTube: https://youtu.be/X-BpGT6hhms. You can also listen to the full episode on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5wouzJZGUnLdM9OAGZ8WgN?si=gjurj3GuSbGGRUxuL2R8Iw! Let’s talk about evolving our leadership as quickly as our teams are evolving.

✨ Happy Birthday, Grace! ✨⁠
⁠
Today we’re celebrating one of our powerhouse Virtual Financial Coordinators behind the scenes at Shimmin Consulting and the impact she makes every single day.⁠
⁠
Grace, your dedication to our clients who invest in Virtual Financial Coordination services does not go unnoticed. You are the steady hand ensuring claims are followed up, accounts are reconciled, contracts are honored, and systems are running exactly the way they should.⁠
⁠
Because of you:⁠
• Collections are stronger⁠
• AR is cleaner⁠
• Processes are tighter⁠
• And doctors can breathe easier knowing their financial systems are protected⁠
⁠
You don’t just “work accounts.” You safeguard production. You protect profitability. You create clarity in an area that can easily feel overwhelming for practices.⁠
⁠
Your consistency, work ethic, and commitment to excellence directly impact the growth and stability of the offices we serve and that matters more than you know.⁠
⁠
We are so grateful for your heart, your discipline, and the standard you uphold for our team and our clients.⁠
⁠
Happy Birthday, Grace! 🎉 Here’s to another year of impact, growth, and continued excellence. We’re blessed to have you! 💛

Diana is gonna say something that may not be well received…but we're gonna say it anyway. 👀⁠
⁠
That beautiful KPI dashboard hanging in your break room?⁠
⁠
It may not be as productive as you think it is.⁠
⁠
If you’re simply reporting:⁠
📊 Conversion rate⁠
📊 Number of starts⁠
📊 No-show rate⁠
📊 Production + collections⁠
⁠
…but no one is actually talking about WHY those numbers look the way they do or WHAT you’re going to do about them, then they’re just numbers on a board.⁠
⁠
Your KPIs aren’t meant to decorate the break room. They’re meant to drive conversations, accountability, and action.⁠
⁠
The numbers tell you what happened.⁠
⁠
The conversation guides you to what happens next. 🎯⁠
⁠
So at your next team meeting, don’t just report the number.⁠
⁠
Ask:⁠
Why are we here? What influenced this? And what are we doing next?⁠
⁠
That’s when your KPI dashboard actually starts working for you.

A weekend well spent with people who continue to push our industry forward. 🦷✨

A HUGE thank you to DentalMonitoring for including Shimmin Consulting in the Speaker VIP Appreciation Dinner and, even more importantly, for your continued commitment to supporting orthodontic practices, their teams, and the patients they serve.

We believe being great consultants means staying connected to what’s happening in our industry, continuing to learn, and showing up in the rooms where innovation and the future of orthodontics are being discussed.

We’re grateful for partners like Dental Monitoring who continue to invest in education, innovation, and practice excellence. Our team walked away from this weekend even more excited about the opportunities ahead for our clients and the orthodontic industry as a whole.

Thank you, Dental Monitoring, for having us and for continuing to raise the bar! 🤍

Day TWO of DentalMonitoring is in the books! 🦷🔥

We already know the value Dental Monitoring can bring to an orthodontic practice. This weekend has been about going even deeper into the systems, strategies, and opportunities that help practices get the MOST out of it.

Today was filled with great conversations around workflows, team efficiency, patient engagement, and how to intentionally integrate Dental Monitoring into the day-to-day operations of a practice.

For us, it’s always about continuing to learn so we can better support our clients, strengthen the systems already in place, and help practices use the tools they’ve invested in to their fullest potential.

Two days of learning, connecting, and sharpening our knowledge so we can bring even MORE value back to our clients. That’s what it’s all about! 🙌🏼🦷

Day ONE of DentalMonitoring is officially in the books! 🦷✨

Not only are we here in Texas, but Dental Monitoring is bringing the Texas HEAT! 🔥🤠

Today has been packed with learning, conversations, and an even deeper look into the incredible systems and structures Dental Monitoring can bring to orthodontic practices. From creating efficiencies to strengthening workflows and the overall patient experience, there is SO much to take in.

And we’re just getting started! Excited to keep connecting and bringing these takeaways back to our amazing clients. 💡🙌🏼

No fluff. Real conversations. Real lessons. 🦷⁠
⁠
One of the biggest disconnects we see in orthodontic practices? The gap between how the doctor views the financial and insurance process and what the team is actually navigating every single day.⁠
⁠
And it doesn’t stop there.⁠
⁠
Treatment Coordinators, you have to believe in your fees. If you walk into an exam room questioning the investment, even unintentionally, the patient will feel it. Doubt creates doubt.⁠
⁠
And doctors, insurance isn’t simply about the contracted rate you agree to accept. There’s also a cost in the time, effort and energy your team spends submitting claims, tracking payments, following up and managing the process month after month.⁠
⁠
Insurance is rarely “submit the claim and collect the check.” There’s a whole lot happening behind the scenes.⁠
⁠
In this episode of Between Two Molars, we’re getting into the conversations practices need to be having around fees, insurance and creating alignment between the doctor and the team.⁠
⁠
You can now watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/DjVuS_kpzgM and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/45Oasja181rSv3bwAY2OMp?si=KJ7JHLysRRSlrG_02dKxPQ⁠
⁠
🎧 Tune in and ask yourself: Is your entire team on the same page when it comes to the financial side of your practice?
