My Story

I've Spent My Career Inside the Practices You're Trying to Build.

I'm Liz Lord — a professional business coach and dental consultant with over three decades in dentistry. Together with my team, we bring over a century of combined experience to every engagement. I've worked with and owned interests in various small businesses, and developed a deep niche in private and small-group health-related practices — with dentistry at the center of everything I do.

I understand the gap that dental school leaves. You were trained to be an exceptional clinician — and then handed the keys to a business with no roadmap. I've spent my career building that roadmap, practice by practice, alongside owners who were smart, hardworking, and exhausted.

My clients grow their revenues an average of 35–45% within 6–24 months. But more than the numbers, they tell me they've found their joy again — in their practice, their team, and their life outside the office.

My Approach

Discovery First. Strategy Always. Results That Last.

Every engagement begins with a deep discovery process — clearly identifying your objectives, your team's dynamics, and the gaps between where you are and where you want to be. From there, we build a strategic plan around the vital business drivers that will get you there.

01

Discovery

We start by clearly identifying your objectives, intended outcomes, and the specific gaps holding your practice back — clinically, operationally, and culturally. Critically, we design everything around building a practice that fits you — your goals, your lifestyle, your vision of success. Not a cookie-cutter model. Yours.

02

Strategic Design

Together we design and optimize the vital business drivers and KPIs necessary to achieve your goals — from systems and accountability to team leadership and patient communication. Financial mastery and prosperity are central to this phase: understanding your numbers, optimizing your fees, and building a practice that generates real wealth — not just a paycheck.

03

Implementation & Coaching

We act as a partner, in the trenches with you, quarterbacking the process and helping you build your team of trusted advisors — financial, legal, operational, and clinical — necessary to execute your strategic vision at the highest level. You receive ongoing training and support through workshops, group and individual coaching, and expert mentoring — so change actually sticks. You are never alone.

04

Sustained Growth

We build a culture of leadership within your organization so that growth compounds over time — and your practice thrives whether you're there or not. Equally important, we ensure the right leaders are developed and in place at every level of your organization, providing the human capital foundation necessary for sustained, scalable growth.

05

Scale, M&A & the Un-DSO

For those ready to go further — we map out your path to growth through mergers and acquisitions and building your own Un-DSO. Whether that's expanding your existing footprint or building a legacy group of practices you own and lead on your own terms, you are positioned to create multi-generational wealth without surrendering your independence to a corporate chain.

Client Results

Real Dentists. Real Transformation.

When I started with Liz, I was a Treatment Coordinator. Her coaching transformed my case acceptance, confidence, and patient relationships almost immediately. As I stepped into the Office Manager role, she guided me every step of the way — I never felt alone. The results speak for themselves: in the first three months of this year, our practice produced over $1 million — a 47% increase year over year.

Before working with Liz, I didn't know my fees were nearly 50% below industry averages — or that key systems in my practice simply weren't being followed. Liz performed a comprehensive analysis, helped me go fully out of network, and rebuilt our systems from the ground up. Last year I achieved over 20% growth despite dropping all insurance, including Delta Dental. I'm working less, making more, and genuinely enjoying every day at work again.
