Dr. Corey Hastings joins us on the podcast for this week's episode. Corey is a pediatric dentist in Missouri and recently opened his third pediatric office. He has an MBA and a passion for developing systems to optimize the delivery of quality pediatric dental care.
This was a live episode we did in-person over a couple of craft beers. The initial conversation was supposed to focus on demographics to support a pediatric dental office, and we ended spending almost an a hour and a half going deep into conversations on pediatric dental hot-button topics. This podcast is raw, unfiltered, and unscripted. It's a good one, even though we don't stick to an agenda! Some of things we talk about:
Demographics for a pediatric dental office
Rural vs urban pediatric dentistry
Solo vs group practice, single-location vs multi-location
Prophy palace vs restorative heavy practices
How do you convince an associate to buy in? And are associates more likely to start their own practice?
How pediatric dentistry can be an isolating profession
