In the world of dentistry and in marketing, the competition is fierce. At MDA, we’re fully aware that other marketing agencies solicit our clients and sometimes even convince them to make the switch. However, it doesn’t always turn out to be a better deal for the practice. Often, the clients that leave return to us, and when they do, we welcome them with open arms, no judgment, no hard feelings. We simply pick up where we left off.
