The Jacksonville Lean Consortium is excited to invite you to our first Lean Leader Meeting of 2026, hosted by Bahri Dental Group!
Join us to see one-patient flow in action at a practice that's been studied by organizations around the world, including the Lean Enterprise Institute.
Dr. Sami Bahri and his team transformed their dental practice from traditional batch-and-queue operations to one-patient flow. His book, The Lean Dentist, won the Shingo Research and Professional Publication Award, and his DVD "Single Patient Flow: Applying Lean Principles to Healthcare" won the same award. Dr. Bahri and his team continue to raise the performance bar through continuous improvement—proving Lean works beyond manufacturing, even in service environments where every patient presents unique needs.
What you'll experience:
- Opening presentation on the transformation journey, lessons learned, and the scientific thinking approach that drives their continuous improvement.
- Gemba walk to see Lean principles and methods in action.
- Q&A with Dr. Bahri and his team.
- Problem-solving session over lunch—bring a real challenge from your work.
- Connect with fellow Lean practitioners and share insights from your own improvement journey.
- Leave with an experiment to test ideas from the visit in your own workplace.
