Most dental offices are losing thousands in production because missed calls, overloaded front desks, and bad systems quietly kill new patient growth. In this episode, Gary Bird sits down with Dr. Ben and Dr. Jonathan Geleris from Walnut Creek Dentists to break down how they generated 60–80 new patients a month while hitting an 800% ROI.
You’ll learn how they improved phone conversion with AI receptionists, increased call answer rates from 45% to 70%+, automated patient communication, and created a world-class patient experience that drives treatment acceptance and referrals. They also reveal the systems behind June Portal and how operational automation is helping their practice grow faster without overwhelming the team.
Gary shares real-world dental marketing insights backed by data from working with over 1,195 practices nationwide. If you want better dental marketing, stronger practice management, more fee-for-service growth, and a system that consistently drives new patients, this episode is packed with tactical takeaways.
