How Great Lakes Dental Partners Transformed with Dentrix Ascend
Transcript
Dr. Tom Brzostowski, Clinician, Great Lakes Dental Partners
Ascend is amazing because what I use and what the staff can use is really incredible. It's been probably the easiest software and the most powerful software that I think is available.

When our teams work more efficiently, our patients have a better experience.

Great Lake Dental Partners is a DSO around the Great Lakes, so Illinois and Indiana. We're about 27 clinics.
Dr. Tom Brzostowski
Before we started to use Dentrix Ascend, there were so many times that the software would go down. Every few seconds that you have to wait for something to work is just a real detriment to our patients.

We chose Dentrix Ascend to offset risk. GLDP is not a technology company. At its core, we are a DSO, and so this allowed us to do what we do best, which is provide patient best-in-class healthcare.

So when we went live, it kind of was very flawless. It went very easy. You can be able to do everything that you need to do in just this one software.
Dr. Tom Brzostowski
I've never seen a system where everybody pretty much jumped on it right away, and the training that they offer is great – a quick transition compared to other systems.

With voice, I think the doctors that are leveraging it, they're ecstatic about it. Their ability to transcribe and also the integrations with voice to our existing templates is a huge time saver. And it allows the doctors to focus on what they do best. With other things like voice perio, we see an uptick in the patient's inclination to accept the treatment plan.
Dr. Tom Brzostowski
Probably the biggest thing is same day treatment. When a patient comes in, we gather the information, we can actually do treatment same day.

I would definitely recommend Dentrix Ascend for anyone who is looking for a software that's going to help their day-to-day run better. It is definitely a great system that allows you to have a better workflow, not only for yourself, but for the patient as well.
