I was recently asked by a new patient if there was a way to view some of our recent segments on WKYC/channel 3’s “Golden Opportunities.” She said that she had “discovered” us by watching the show last week and appreciated that we were giving out education in dentistry that could not be found anywhere else on television. She wanted to learn more than she had gotten on that one segment.
We were recently named one of the “Top Dentists” in Northeast Ohio. We were listed on the “Top Dentist” website as one of the three recommended offices for dental care in Cleveland. Please check it out, and let your friends and colleagues know as well. We are always here for you – and for them; we welcome your referrals – and send you a Starbucks gift card as our way of saying “thanks.”
All of us here at www.ClevelandSmiles are gratified by your support; it is, indeed, a team effort!!!
Last week, we were featured on a segment of WKYC’s morning program ‘Good Company.’ Dr. Marsh sat down with Joe Cronauer to discuss our passion for those in the teaching profession, and our passion for helping our patients achieve the perfect smile. You can watch our segment in the video window below. Be sure to head over to Cleveland Smiles on Facebook to let us know what you think, or contact us if you would like to learn more about improving your smile this holiday season.
Our new bi-monthly e-mail contests, created by our office manager Afsaneh, have proven to be very popular. When we let you know about our WKYC-TV “Golden Opportunity” appearances, Afsaneh includes a quotation that our e-mail recipients are asked to identify; the first three people (after all, the show is on channel 3 in Cleveland) who guess the origin correctly receive a $10 Starbucks card. Among our first winners, Sheila H. exclaimed that it was “the first time I’ve ever won anything!!!” We congratulate her and the other winners.
Speaking of Starbucks, we are thanking those of you who refer patients to our office with a $25 gift card. Beyond the card, I should let you know that referrals to your family, friends, and colleagues are extremely gratifying to all of us, as you are making us one of the top dentists in Cleveland! Thanks again for all of your support.
We always try to be one of the most innovative dentist in Cleveland, and to that end we are hoping to integrate the Apple iPad to make it easier for our patients to update their medical conditions when entering our office. We will have it available in our reception room to fill out patient registration forms and dental/medical forms. It will also be available to use to connect to the internet to check your e-mails and browse the Internet. It can also be used to send in post-treatment evaluations for Angie’s List and other web-based review sites. If you would like to use it, just ask Afsaneh or Karin, and they will be glad to assist you!
As long as I am speaking about our reception area, we have been getting a number of favorable comments about our choice of magazines and our “food area,” which includes Kashi bars and Snyders pretzels, as well as a selection of coffees, including Green Mountain and Starbucks. If there is any other brand you’d like to see, please tell us. The same thing applies to our magazine selections, which include “The New Yorker,” “Vanity Fair,” “Town and Country,” and the ubiquitous “People Magazine!”
As the Cleveland Browns’ season moves on, our bi-monthly appearances on WKYC/channel 3’s “Golden Opportunities” have been seen at a new time 12:30 p.m., to allow for the pre-game NFL show. Once the season wraps up (hopefully after a Brownies playoff run!), “Golden Opportunities” will move back to its 11:30 am start.
And speaking of “G.O,” the shows are now being archived on “YouTube.” So if you’ve missed one of our segments, you can log onto our website at www.ClevelandSmiles.com for a listing of our shows and search it out on “YouTube,” under “GoldenOpportunities Show.” We hope you’ll enjoy them!!
Not too long ago one of our patients sent us a note regarding our diagnosis of his wife’s cancer, which I picked up on a routine screening of her mouth and tongue. He credits the diagnosis as “saving his wife’s life.”
As we often point out, cancer screening is one more reason it is so important for our patients to keep their regular appointments. Even though we may be known as one of Cleveland’s leading dental offices for general and cosmetic dentistry, we make cancer screening part of every hygiene exam, along with a periodontal examination and search for decay and broken fillings.
We wish our patient a healthy recovery following both surgery and radiation therapy for her oral cancer.
Angie’s List is one of the most reputable and comprehensive service provider lists online. Companies can’t pay to be on Angie’s List, they have to be accepted based on referrals from real customers.
So starting in the next month or so, we’ll be one of the featured dentist offices in Cleveland on Angie’s List. After being listed in Cleveland Magazine as one of Cleveland’s “Top Dentists of 2011,” and being recommended to Angie’s List by a number of our patients, we were asked to join a select group of general/cosmetic dentist offices with a presence on their website www.Angieslist.com. We appreciate the support given to us by our patients and will also try our best to earn and keep your trust!
In a letter we received on August 1st, we were honored to find out that we have been selected by a vote of our peers to be included in the list of “Top Cleveland Dentists” which will be published in the October issue of “Cleveland Magazine.” The honor is shared with our wonderful staff, including Afsaneh, Karin, Amy, Marilyn, Suzanne, and Wendy, as well as part-timers Shirley, Barbara, and Jill; as you might expect, it is especially gratifying. And, of course, we couldn’t have done it without you, our patients!!
With school rapidly approaching (Summer always seems to go by so quickly, doesn’t it?), we have some appointment times reserved for your children and grandchildren… and for teachers, too! Just let us know when and we’ll do our best to get them/you in to see us. And speaking of teachers, our patient Sara Logan did a marvelous job on WKYC/Channel 3’s Golden Opportunities.
Please remember that we begin our day at 7am, Monday through Friday, for those of you who like to get in and out before you start your regular day. Call Karin or Afsaneh so that they can help you out!
