Episode 17: Dr. Len Tau | It’s All About the Reviews!

In this week's Dental Handoff, Dr. Kelly is joined by Dr. Len Tau! Chosen as one of the top leaders in dental consulting by Dentistry Today, Len Tau, DMD, has dedicated his professional life to improving dentistry for both patients and other dentists. 

After purchasing his practice, the Pennsylvania Center for Dental Excellence
in Philadelphia in 2007, Len practiced full-time while consulting to other dental practices, training thousands of dentists about reputation marketing, leading the dental division of BirdEye, a reputation marketing platform, and hosting the popular, Raving Patients podcast. He recently authored the book Raving Patients and the jus release 100+ Tips to 100 Five Star Reviews in 100 Days.
 
In 2018, Len cut down to practicing dentistry two days per week to focus additional time and attention to helping other dentists build broad and compelling online footprints that attract hundreds of new patients to their practices. In October 2021 he sold his dental practice but continues to provide his patients dental care 2 days per week while commuting from Parkland , Florida where he has resided since October 2020. 
Len lectures nationally and internationally on using internet marketing, social media, and reputation marketing to make dental offices more visible and credible as well as how to increase their case acceptance.

In this episode, Dr. Kelly and Dr. Tau discuss:

- Why Dr. Tau chose Dentistry after growing up seeing his Dad “recreating smiles” as a Dentist.

- Why he didn’t want to remain a practicing dentist his whole life and why he sold his practice 

- A revolutionary software Len developed in order to make it easier for practices to foster online reviews

- Why you don’t become a real dentist until you get a bad review

- How practices  can operationalize getting good reviews from their patients

- Creating a “reputation culture’ in the office

- The least costly and most effective way of getting a good review

- Why Dr. Tau is anti-social media in terms of generating new patients

- Why social media helps inform community, but isn't great for on-boarding new patients

- How to make the handoff from an office with reviews and turn those into converting more patients?

- The importance of both VISIBILITY AnD CREDIBILITY for an effective online presence

- And so much more!
