Your Virtual Consult

What Your Virtual Consult does

Your Virtual Consult (YVC) is a private, US-based SaaS platform that enables dental practices to conduct asynchronous and live video consultations with prospective patients, founded in 2017 in San Diego by Michael Anderson, Laura Maly, and Mark Anderson. The company is structured as a Delaware LLC and operates in close alignment with its sister company Wonderist Agency (a leading dental marketing agency founded in 2012 and recognized on the Inc 5000 in 2020), which provides marketing, customer acquisition, and operational infrastructure. YVC is HIPAA-compliant and serves SMB dental practices including general dentistry, oral surgery, and pediatric dentistry segments.

The platform's core technology centers on asynchronous video communication: dentists record consults at their convenience using browser-based recording with a built-in teleprompter and customizable script templates, which prospective patients then view before scheduling an in-office visit. Supporting modules include a website widget for homepage lead capture, automated video responses triggered by the service of interest, a 5-step Consult Wizard with treatment templates and case libraries, an analytics dashboard for campaign performance and future collection potential, custom landing pages tied to marketing channels, live consult capability, lead management with dynamic forms, and text/email drip follow-up sequences. Integrations include Stripe for paid consults, Local Med for scheduling, and a planned Open Dental practice management integration. YVC claims an 89% case acceptance rate among platform users versus a 41% industry average.

YVC monetizes exclusively through a per-location SaaS subscription priced at $299 per month with a $990 one-time setup fee, generating recurring monthly revenue. Distribution is direct-to-dentist via the company website, a self-serve signup, and a sales-assisted 12-minute demo, supplemented by participation in approximately 25 dental industry events annually and partnerships with dental influencers and educator communities (e.g., Dental Nachos). The company serves US-based SMB dental practices with named customers including Precision Dental, Advanced Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Studio, Arctic Dental, and New Horizons Dental. No external institutional funding has been disclosed.

Emerging players

• Tab32: Cloud dental practice management platform with integrated patient communication, telehealth and imaging modules, positioning as a modern cloud-native alternative to legacy PMS suites.
• Dental Intel: Dental practice analytics and automation platform. Comparable in being a dental-vertical SaaS serving SMB practices; adjacent rather than head-to-head, but competes for the same IT budget line item.
• Yapi: Dental patient experience platform offering online forms, digital intake, two-way texting and virtual consult features; overlapping SMB dental use cases with YVC.

Broad incumbents

• Curve Dental: Cloud-based dental practice management software with patient communication, online forms and consult capabilities; competes for the same end-customer (dental practice) and could add native virtual consult features.
• PatientPop (by Tebra): Healthcare practice growth platform (now part of Tebra) offering website widgets, online scheduling and patient communication for healthcare providers including dental SMBs; a broader-suite alternative to YVC's narrower virtual consult focus.
• Lighthouse 360 (Henry Schein One): Established dental patient communication and recall platform from a major dental software incumbent. Offers automated reminders, two-way texting and online scheduling that partially overlap with YVC's lead and follow-up features.
• Dentrix (Henry Schein One): Dominant on-premise dental practice management software suite from Henry Schein One, increasingly bundling patient engagement and consult tools; represents the bundled-suite competitive threat to standalone virtual consult platforms.

Direct peers

• SmileSnap: Direct competitor offering asynchronous virtual consultation software for dental practices, with website widgets, video consults and lead capture. Closest head-to-head alternative to Your Virtual Consult in the dental virtual consult category.
• Doctible: Patient communication and virtual consult platform built for dental practices, including website widgets, two-way texting and reputation management. Competes for the same SMB dental software wallet as YVC.
• RevenueWell (by ProSites): Dental-focused patient engagement and marketing automation suite with virtual consult and recall features; overlaps with YVC's lead nurturing, drip follow-up and consult workflows.
