Empty Chairs & Hard Truths: Inside The NHS Pressure Cooker

Season 5 Episode 5 Published 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

Dr. Haffner works across two practices in Manchester. One NHS, one fully private. Given his experience, he’s got a clear-eyed view of what the pressure actually looks like on the ground (and what it means for dentists on both sides of the Atlantic).

In this episode, we dive into what NHS life is actually costing dentists in the UK, why so few practices make the move to private, and why spending money on the aesthetics of your practice means nothing if you haven't changed how you talk to patients.

Here's what we get into:

  • What NHS pressure actually feels like inside a UK dental practice
  • Why the system makes ethical dentistry difficult
  • Why most practices don't go private
  • Where practices underestimate the difficulty of private growth
  • What the UK's experience should be telling US practice owners right now

If you're a UK or US dentist who feels like the system is working against you, or you're trying to grow private revenue without blowing up your operations, this one is going to hit close to home.
