Success Stories
"We're saving up to 7 hours a week spent on data entry as well as saving on the
overhead costs of hiring another admin, which overall saves us $65,000 a year. It
just wouldn't make sense not to use mConsent. By using mConsent we can prioritize
serving our patients."
Mary Jo | Office Manager at Lift Dental
"When we joined mConsent all that headache (of scanning, printing, importing,
shredding) was gone. It literally was so seamless and easily transitioned. I
genuinely cannot understand how any office does not have mConsent already. We saved
at least $100,000 over the course of a couple of years. I genuinely wish I did this
10 years ago."
Dr Layth Ghanim DDS | Arlington Dental Excellence
“mConsent helps our clinic save 5,200 hours a year otherwise wasted on data entry,
which enables us to save ~$55K in administrative expenses. Affordable and easy to
use, mConsent adds value to our community.”
