What it takes to make a successful transition from NHS to private

Join Janice Charlton, Rohit Patel and Minal Patel on Thursday 17 November as they discuss what it takes to make a successful transition from NHS to private.

Moving away from the NHS to private dentistry is a significant decision and one that requires detailed analysis and planning, ensuring any transition (partial or full) is a success for you, your team and your patients.

The appetite for exploring the transition to private has never been as prevalent.

In this webinar, we’ll cover why now may be the best time to make the move, how we can support your practice in assessing whether the move is the right strategy, and the key steps to ensure a successful transition.

Janice, from Patient Plan Direct, is joined by Minal and Rohit from High Street Dental Evesham, who completed a highly successful NHS to private transition earlier in 2022.

The speakers will cover:
