Frequently Asked Questions

How much does orthodontic practice consulting cost?

Fees are a daily rate and vary depending on how many days it takes to make the conversion to a thriving practice. All fees are agreed to before consulting begins.

Is consulting worth it for a small practice?

Often yes, because small practices feel structural problems immediately. The question is not practice size but whether growth has outpaced the systems holding it together.

How is payment structured?

Engagements are structured around a defined scope and schedule agreed in advance. You will know what is included, how many consulting days are planned, and what happens between them before anything starts.

What is the cheapest way to start working with Hummingbird?

The Numbers Analysis is a smaller commitment than a full consulting engagement. Many practices begin with quarterly benchmarking, see where they actually stand, and decide from there.

What happens if it does not work?

Consulting only works when the practice implements. We are direct about that up front. The most common reason engagements stall is that the leadership team does not have the time or authority to carry changes through, which is why we address leadership structure early rather than last.
