Simplify. Streamline. Succeed. Dental Systems That Pay Off

Is your practice actually as efficient as it could be?

If your front desk feels like a bottleneck, patients are slipping through cracks, or you're losing revenue to outdated payment systems, then you’ll want to hear this one.

In this episode of the Raving Patients Podcast, I sit down with Mandy Madeline—an experienced clinical assistant turned dental operations expert and now a leader at Pay Proudly. With nearly two decades in the industry, Mandy offers a unique lens into how systems, communication, and simple changes can make a huge impact on your bottom line.

We dig into:

• How to reduce credit card processing fees without upsetting patients

• The truth about surcharging—and how to do it the right way

• Why in-house membership plans are a must (and how to make them work without tech headaches)

• The #1 leadership mindset that boosts team performance and office culture

• Simple front office scripts that improve patient trust and reduce confusion

You’ll walk away with clear, actionable strategies to streamline your practice operations, elevate your patient experience, and protect your profitability.
