Looking back, what’s the biggest mistake you made and what would you do differently if you could?

I would have brought additional administrative staff members to the team earlier on, such as an operations manager, chief operating officer, and practice development. This would’ve freed up more time for running the daily operations so that I could focus on dentistry and patient care.

What is the most valuable lesson you’ve learned over the past three years?
The ability to listen to my patients and my employees. This simple concept has given me the ability to help people the way they want to be helped. Many businesses treat all their customers the same and have a cookie-cutter approach, but I pride myself on being completely custom and listening to what my patients and staff need. Informed patients can make the best decision for themselves.
