Our Consulting Process
Why consulting?
Our clients invest in consulting for many different reasons. Some come to us with specific issues: a lack of new patients, high accounts receivable, staffing issues, low case acceptance, or failure to grow—just to name a few. Others have large, successful, high-performing practices and are ready to advance to the next level.
The one thing our clients have in common: they are tired of business as usual.
We can help you optimize every system and maximize every opportunity to build the flourishing practice of your dreams. Nickerson Consulting has a strong record of successfully lowering stress, increasing take-home income, and enabling our clients and their teams to enjoy the practices they envision.
How does it work?
We see your practice differently. After many years of working with well over 2000 dentists, we have learned to locate both the common and the uncommon blind spots restricting you and your practice from reaching your full potential.
We begin with a detailed practice analysis that identifies the untapped revenue streams, growth opportunities, and hidden problems. The analysis involves highly refined surveys, important practice metrics, and careful observation.
We use a smart systems based approach. These systems are carefully constructed after years of experience. And unlike some consultants, we customize a strategy for your practice based on your unique goals and vision. Every practice is different, and there’s no point in offering cookie-cutter solutions. We implement this custom strategy with hands-on training, feedback and accountability. Our consulting team stands behind you, offering personal support along the way.

What Our Clients Are Saying About Us
“For years I have been wary of practice management consultants due to the cookie cutter approach that many of them embrace. It is of fundamental importance to me that my practice philosophy is maintained as we focus on growth. Unfortunately, I have seen some consultants change the mission of the practice to what they feel is ideal rather than the practitioners philosophy.
Sherri has a process which brings detailed strategy plans that effectively reach your professional and personal goals while maintaining the teams philosophy towards patient care. I am impressed with the information that she is able to glean from my practice management software and give my team an actionable plan to achieve our goals. I am proud to say that the systems that we have developed and continue to refine have provided our patients with the quality, efficiency, and caring atmosphere that I have always envisioned.
With Sherri’s thoughtful guidance, the quality of our patient care has increased our average collections by 17% in 9 short months. Last month we had a 38% increase in collections in comparison to the previous year. That is about 10X the return on my investment with Sherri. I wish the rest of my investments were as profitable as this one. I cannot recommend Sherri highly enough. Follow her sound recommendations and you will enjoy large financial returns while reducing your overall stress levels.”
