After being with Method for over two years now, when I sit down with my accountant at month-end, it’s nice to see how much our supply percentage has dropped

In our first full month of having Method implemented, we saved over one thousand dollars at just one of our practices. Multiply that by 12 months, and those are some impressive savings that directly improve our bottom line.
