In this segment, Dr. Vince Leone argues that the front‑desk staff are the most critical, yet often overlooked, component of a medical practice. He frames the front desk as the practice’s ambassador, responsible for representing the doctor on the phone, answering patient questions confidently, and most importantly converting inquiries into scheduled appointments. By treating front‑desk personnel as valued team members and ensuring they are well‑trained, practices can significantly boost patient acquisition and overall growth.

What's that? No, not you. Most doctors are paying, you know, as little as possible for that front desk. Oh yeah. And I'm like, this is like your ambassador. Like, I think you should look at this individual as, as, you know, one of the most important parts of the practice because, you know, not only are they going to represent you on the phone and they need to be able to answer questions confidently and succinctly, but they also got to be able to get them to schedule and show, right? That's how we grow the practice. So, that's a huge role. And anyway, it sounds like you put a lot of effort into that.
