Shannon Patterson will be presenting at the Great Lakes Association of Orthodontists (GLAO) and the Middle Atlantic Society of Orthodontists (MASO) a joint Annual Session in St Thomas. The conference features three half-days of education, networking, and quality time with vendors. Not to mention free time to Reflect*Refresh*Renew, a theme that has been aptly chosen for the meeting.
Shannon’s keynote presentation, Orthodontic Market Trends & Insights, will take place on Friday, October 18 from 7:45am-8:50am.
This presentation will explain the current business state, trends and existing benchmarks of the orthodontic marketplace. Shannon will discuss the facts and trends of the evolving change our industry is experiencing so that doctor owners have the knowledge to make strategic decisions for the future of their practice. In addition to presenting up-to- date orthodontic market data, this lecture will identify the major pressures the specialty is facing. Among these changes are new technologies, consumer behaviors during economic uncertainty and consolidation in the marketplace. This presentation will provide data needed to stay competitive and make strategic decisions about the future of your practice.
Just wanted to say thank you for your presentation yesterday. I thought it was great and provided us with a great perspective.
