  “The timing of bringing Russ in to help our office could not have been more perfect. My five year old, scratch start practice was hitting its stride and things were getting stressful. Some days we couldn’t work everyone in who wanted to be seen and other days my schedule was full of holes. Within three weeks of beginning the program with Russ our production went up and our stress level went down. Russ promised a 10% increase, but we are up 23% over last year. Nothing in the way I treatment plan has changed. His consulting has paid for itself ten times over.”

  “I would recommend The Ledbetter Group to any dental office looking to enjoy dentistry more and be more profitable while doing it. Russ has been with our office for six months and the average for the last three months has our production up 27%. This far exceeds his initial promised increase and we have six more months left in the contract. After working with a large consulting group and getting lost in all the different coaches, Russ is a breath of fresh air. I talk directly to him four times a month and he is available for my staff and me at any time. At our initial meeting we evaluated my practice and set goals to create an office that would make us proud. Russ has empowered my staff, trained them well and set up a bonus system which has been very successful the last three months. I started this venture to help my staff enjoy work more and to make more money. We are doing very well and I am enjoying how simple and easy the relationship has been. Thanks Russ.” www.colonydentalcare.com

  "When I first received a call from Lois Ann, I was hesitant because I thought that I could not afford a professional dental consultant. I knew we NEEDED help. I had a business consultant at the time but really needed a dental consultant. She had helped my classmate, and I just felt that she would help us as well! Lois Ann analyzed my practice and made big promises of increases in our production and collections, less stress and less time in the office. I had no idea how we could have such a big increase within a year. Well, let me be the first to say that we exceeded our goals within three months!! I feel that I am finally starting to steer the ship instead of floating along and hoping to not sink. After she helped stabilize our practice, I had surgery and missed six days of work. Without Lois Ann's expertise and training, I'm not sure how we would have managed. The practice was fine even with my absence. She has given us the knowledge to succeed and the security of a productive practice. Our office works as a team, and we are excited about dentistry!! She has changed not only my practice but my life. I would encourage any dentist to call Ledbetter and Associates! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!" www.joanncrimdmd.com

  Like many, I was very skeptical at first, but found Lois Ann a very sincere, hard working lady who's main goal was to help train me in leadership skills that I lacked. She is a no-nonsense, straight talking consultant with an enthusiasm that is contagious. Our production increased on less days, and our office stress improved tremendously. We are still a work in progress, but must give Lois Ann significant credit for our recent success. www.hambrightfamilydentalcare.com

  “We’ve come a long way by using The Ledbetter Group to help us with our practice. They delivered on their promise of increased production. I believe you are only as good as your supporting staff will let you be and with their help I am confident I have the team I need to move forward with my practice. I now feel like I better and more effectively know how to manage my staff and practice. They had me track key numbers which I now understand and have power to make positive changes and can compare month-to-month going forward. My stress is better since I am much more in control of my practice." -- www.fulksfamilydentistry.com

  "I am very pleased I contracted with The Ledbetter Group for my practice. Russ and his team brought everyone on board working toward the same goals, and my staff is much more of a team. Our front office is more efficient, our hygiene is more efficient, and I, as the doctor, am more efficient. This efficiency helps my stress level stay low while increasing my production at the same time. I was able to "Work Smarter and Not Harder" to increase the production. I would recommend The Ledbetter Group to any dentist looking to increase production, new patients, and wanting to maintain a balanced work environment. Russ is a great coach not only in the practice but also in some personal areas. He can be compared to the great Paul "Bear" Bryant with his head coaching and his assistant Ginny coming in motivating the team." www.jesupdentist.com

  “I love being a dentist. I can honestly say I feel blessed to be able to do my dream job each day. However, after managing my practice for eight years, I found myself frustrated, exhausted and unsure of my financial future. I wasn’t struggling, but I was never able to get ahead, either. I, honestly, had no real idea of how to measure my success in practice. I was working more days and longer hours than ever before with no real breakthrough results to show for it. Around this time, I was introduced to The Ledbetter Group. To say I was terrified to hire a consultant is an understatement. How would I pay the fee when some months I seemed to barely make it? But, after talking with them, I was taken aback by this company’s overwhelming desire to show me how much better life could be with a more proficient work environment. For the first time in my life, someone asked me what my goals and dreams were for my practice. They had no gimmicks or cookie cutter formulas for success. They evaluated the current state of my practice and then devised a plan with my personal dreams and goals in mind. The training my team and I received was tailored to fit our office and our mission. Immediately, we became more organized, efficient, and profitable. In just a few short months, I was reaching production goals and having to raise the bar to set new ones. My practice was growing and thriving, and my team was excited to begin receiving consistent monthly bonuses. For the first time in a very long time, I was working fewer hours and fewer days while seeing real results. I no longer worried if I was going to make it. I had a guide and a newfound knowledge in practice management. Before working with The Ledbetter Group, I felt like my practice was on auto-pilot where results were out of my control. Today, I feel I am at the wheel, steering my team in the direction we want to go in order to achieve the goals and dreams we desire. My professional life is better than ever, and I have a clear vision for the future of my practice!” www.cwcdmd.com

  “I would like to take this opportunity to share my thoughts with anyone considering working with the Ledbetter Group. Our office staff was overcome with fear and anxiety upon learning that a "consulting group" would be coming to work with us. We had heard horror stories of how entire office staffs were replaced. But as soon as we began to talk with Lois Ann and Ginny, we realized that The Ledbetter Group was different. They truly care about the Doctor, Staff and Practice. We learned so many things, some so simple that we wondered why had we not thought of that? Because of their guidance and expertise, our office is much more efficient, less stressed and fun! So, throw out any pre-conceived notions of what you have heard and open your mind to wonderful new ideas on how to make your practice the best it can be!

  Dear Russ, I have always been a do-it-myself kind of gal, never liked to ask anyone for help. After finishing dental school in 2000, I started practicing with my father. We quickly took a small one dentist practice and turned into a busy, growing, two-dentist practice. All the ups and downs, dad and I navigated together. Suddenly in 2009, my father, who never missed a day at work due to illness, began having multiple health issues. As he missed several months and only returned to work a 12 hour work week, I found myself at a loss. I really didn't know how to do it all! I decided to hire a consultant, and chose Russ Ledbetter because he had worked so well with several of my classmates. He is teaching me skills that can never be learned in dental school or incorporated after just attending a weekend seminar on practice management. I feel more confident, the practice is growing again, and my employees are happy! Thanks so much Russ, for making my career fun again! www.annistondentalgroup.com

  "It's now April 2010. I was in group practice from July 2001 to December 2009 when I decided I was ready to go solo. I hired Russ Ledbetter from The Ledbetter Group in August 2009 after opening a brand new start up practice in May of 2009. Not only was I new to running a solo practice, but my entire staff, hygienist, assistant, and front desk coordinator, were all new to their respective positions. To say we were green and inexperienced is the understatement of the century! My first year of private practice has been a whirlwind to say the least. I don't know how I would have survived financially or what the practice would look like from a management perspective if I hadn't had Russ to guide and direct me the whole way. I highly recommend The Ledbetter Group. I feel it has been a very wise investment on my part that will continue to pay dividends for the rest of my career." www.hartfordfamilydentistry.com

  To whom it may concern, “I have had the wonderful opportunity to bring The Ledbetter Group on board for practice consulting. I cannot say enough good things about the decision I made to accept their invitation to taking my practice to the Next Level. I am a recent graduate and have owned my practice for just less than 2 years. The practice had 40 years of history and a recent move in location. I was very skeptical. I had all the fears a recent graduate has with all the loans and now a new one with the practice. The staff was in a rut. I got the phone call from Lois Ann Ledbetter and I have not looked back since. They promised a 10K increase in monthly production, but they average 18k. They far exceeded their promise. They said they would help me develop a Team that communicates well, that is motivated and willing to take the practice in the right direction. They said they would coach me to manage the team and become a great team leader. I was reluctant to make the decision, but I am so thankful that I did. I am now averaging $1,000 increase in daily production, new patients are coming in droves, and patients are moving forward with treatment. Patient referrals are through the roof. It is almost magical the transformation that has taken place with my practice. It is a place everyone wants to be a part of. Some patients are even asking for jobs here because they want to be associated with the positive and electric atmosphere that we have here. They are telling all their friends about us. It is amazing. In comparison to exactly one year ago this month of March had a 20k plus increase in production. And collections have followed directly alongside the increase in production. I am truly amazed. I am so glad that I made the tough decision to move forward with a dental consultant early on in my career. If you get that phone call from The Ledbetter Group, make the same decision that I made. You will not regret it. The thoroughness and dedication by them is unbelievable. They will coach you to Success.” www.bloomfamilysmiles.com

  “When I first signed on with Russ I was very worried about what the return on my investment would be. It seemed like a lot of money to pay for a consultant. After completing his program I can honestly say that I am very excited about the outcome and it was definitely one of the best business decisions I have ever made. The whole process forced me to look at my practice like I had never done before. I thought my practice was doing OK and we were growing at an acceptable rate. To say that I was wrong would be an understatement. The changes that we have made now have transformed my practice. I am glad I decided to work with Russ and his team. The difference in my practice and the large increase in production and collections were well worth the investment.” www.brooklanefamilydental.com

  “Having just purchased an existing dental practice, hiring Russ Ledbetter was a big step in the right direction. With his guidance, our new patient flow increased dramatically as well as our production and collections. A task Russ achieved that I found to be even more beneficial was to give me peace of mind and confidence. Russ put systems and accountabilities in place so that I knew when staff was performing and when they weren't. Through Russ, I truly learned how to "run" my practice.

  “In these challenging economic times, investment in the practice is critical. I believe the engagement of The Ledbetter Group was the single best decision our practice has ever made. Russ delivers on his promise to increase production and collections, streamline efficiencies, he raised morale, and took our practice to the next level. I am not one to make casual recommendations but this one is a sure thing.” www.bennettfamilydentistry.com

  “Working with The Ledbetter Group has been one of the best and most rewarding business decisions I have ever made. They opened my eyes to so many things vital to effective practice management. Through their analysis of my practice, The Ledbetter Group uncovered a personnel issue that would have had serious negative consequences had it continued. I now realize how much my dental school education lacked the essential elements necessary to evaluate and manage the business side of dentistry. The Ledbetter Group definitely delivered on their promises. Our production increased by over $10,000 per month as did our collections. She helped create harmony among the staff and improved working relationships. Our practice now steadily attracts an average of 30-40 new patients each month showing continued growth. With respect to these achievements, I feel less stress and once again enjoy coming to work each day.” www.mdadental.com

  “I am employed with an office that uses The Ledbetter Group. Since we have started using The Ledbetter Group our collections and production have sky rocketed. The entire atmosphere of the office is wonderful. The Ledbetter Group have the most professional, courteous, thoughtful and caring people I have ever worked with, and I have been in dentistry for about 25 years.
  The knowledge level they teach and all materials they bring to achieve and succeed are easy and fun to follow and are very effective. Any practice that allows them to work with them will thoroughly benefit. I recommend them to any practice that wants to succeed in all aspects. You too could have an office like ours that is wonderful to come to every day.”
