Dental MBA in 1 day sets up some expectations of going over the business aspect of dentistry, accounts, money, various numbers and analysis that needs attention, etc. This course is video taped from a workshop. Part 1 which is short of 2 hours spends a lot of time with the presenter babbling about various things not related to the subject of the course. You could easily skip the 1st hour without missing anything. It could've been a 10 minute introduction instead of 1 hour and 10 minutes. The real informative section begins towards the later part of Part 1. I hope parts 2 and 3 have more of the useful stuff.
Still relevant
