Learning from DSOs with Bryan Debowsky

Dr. Bryan Seth Debowsky is part of the DentFirst Dental Care team in Atlanta. He specializes in General Dentistry and obtained his degree at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Shortly after graduating from dental school, Bryan joined the US Air Force Dental Corpse and remained for five years where he developed his skills in surgical, restorative, and endodontic dentistry. After he left the Air Force in 2005, Bryan joined the DentFirst team where he currently practices as one of their core members. Today, Bryan shares the perspective of a DSO when it comes to supporting dental practices. He describes what led him to become a DSO, his experience in the Air Force, and why he chose to remain a DSO. He discusses the reasons he became a dentist in the first place and why he insists on hiring more specialists. He compares and contrasts the difficulties of a private practitioner and a DSO when it comes to hiring and retaining associates. Bryan also shares his thoughts on how to beat bigger competition, how to best market your dental services, and why dentists should understand the business aspect of their practice better.

The Four Scarce Resources in Any Business

Running a growing business requires plenty of resources, arguably much more than starting one. The only difference is, you already know what you’re doing once you’re in the growth phase, and the problem now has shifted to resource management. Just like any business, dental practices also have a scarcity issue when it comes to four key resources: Time, mental bandwidth, physical strength, and economics. How should a business owner manage these four key resources? Today, I discuss my thoughts on the four scarce resources in any business and what many business owners should focus on to manage them. I share what I think most practitioners get wrong when it comes to business efficiency and explain why the ultimate goal of a business owner shouldn’t be to get more patients. I describe what ‘survival mode’ is in business and why it’s not advisable to be hyper focused on survival. I also share the reason why the economics of a business should be the last priority. "There's a lot of focus on efficiencies in a dental practice, but efficiencies don't matter if you don't schedule differently." This week on T-Bone Speaks Dentistry Podcast: Updates on 3D-Dentists and what we're planning for the podcast in 2021.My thoughts on how many define balance and how we should define it.How to keep your balance as consistent as possible.What a real efficient practice should look like for many practitioners.The one flaw that efficiencies are built around.Why dentists shouldn't aim for more patients in their practice.Why the brain should be thought of as a pipe.The importance of maintaining physical strength as we age.Why I believe economics should be the last thing we think about.How survival mode kills businesses... and people.Our Favorite Quotes: "Economic well-being is the outcome of doing all the right things." - Tarun Agarwal"We should all reach that point where we're not as economically worried." - Tarun Agarwal Subscribe, Connect & Share Your Favorite Episodes Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of T-Bone Speaks Dentistry.

078 The Pros and Cons of Being an Associate Versus Being an Owner with Dr. Vinh, Dr. Erin Elliott, and Dr. Ashley Joves

We are recording live from the Voices of Dentistry Day 1. Sully talks with Dr. Vinh Nguyen from the Nifty Thrifty podcast, Dr. Erin Elliott, and Dr. Ashley Joves from California. Some of the things we discuss are the pros and cons of being an associate versus being an owner. We also talk about how to separate being a leader and being a friend in a practice. We share four unique perspectives on balancing running a practice and running our lives. We talk about technology, risk, debt, survival mode, mindset, solutions and so much more in this episode. You can find our guests here: Dr. Vinh Nguyen the Nifty Thrifty Podcast Dr. Erin Elliott Dr. Ashley Joves Show Notes: [00:52] Dr. Vinh Nguyen from the Nifty Thrifty podcast. [00:59] Dr. Erin Elliott #smokeshow. [01:29] Dr. Ashley Joves from California. [02:48] Vinh is an associate right now. Someday, he will move on to being an owner. [03:25] Ashley has her own office. When she was an associate, she never had to take work home. As an owner, she pays herself less and takes home more stress. She is always thinking about the practice. [05:12] Never compare your journey with someone else's especially on social media. People portray their highlight reel on social media. [05:44] Ashley talks about challenges of running a practice that include juggling family and mom duties, leading a team of young females, and still wanting everyone to like her. [06:08] Erin has evolved over time. She does try to keep some separation with her team. [07:11] Erin always brings everything back to the patient. She also asks her team for their solutions when they come to her for problems. [08:54] Ashley knows where she wants to take her office. She struggles with investing in technology and taking on debt. [12:05] Sully delegates everything. He jumps in and figures it out. [13:27] Erin thinks dentists need to work on their mindset and empower their teams. Find each team member's strengths and empower them. [14:28] Break down what you need to do to get to the next step. [15:30] Erin is about to speak on stage, so she is going to leave the show. [16:30] Vinh's timeline is to buy into a practice in the next few years. Benefits of working with other dentist owners is that you aren't alone. He wants to have equity in multiple offices. [18:29] Sully's dad still practices. [21:38] Ashley can expand her offerings or bring other people on. She could calculate her annual patient value. Then focus on increasing that amount. [24:18] At Vinh's practice, they keep most everything in house. [26:07] They also offer payment plans or cash discounts. [28:30] Ashley was booked doing fillings all day. She is working on investing in her business. [32:41] The Cone beam is better for diagnosis. [33:50] Give people who pay up front a 10% discount. You can also do 3 payments over the timeline. [39:42] Ashley was losing on opportunity by pushing new patients weeks away. She has two full-time hygienists. Now she is struggling with giving them hours. [41:11] It's important to be honest with the team members and give them extra duties if they are flexible. [45:22] Eventually Ashley will build out her other rooms as she builds and expands her practice. [46:37] You have to have everything dialed in before you add people and rooms. [47:26] It's important to share your vision with your team. As always thanks so much for listening! If you like the show we would love for you to review the show on iTunes as well as spread the word!

How to Overcome the Lack of Quality Team Members and Be Productive with Balanced Patient Work

In this episode, I've shared crucial lessons from my experience—maintaining a thriving practice despite tough competition. When we are overbooked, we lack team members, and it's hard to find good ones to work with, not because there are only a few good ones to choose, rather the competition is so high they choose those who offer the highest. However, keeping up with these challenges is the best way possible to succeed. Sometimes, letting go of less impactful aspects helps create a harmonious workspace. Let's conquer these challenges together and support each other in this amazing dental journey! @2:20 - Competition in Employee Market @5:15 - Importance of Fewer well Planned visits @8:14 - Giving the “Yes!” to the Best @10:33 - Too Much Patient Issue @16:21 - Personal Experience and Realizations Connect with Dr. Tarun Agarwal,DDS LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/tbonespeaks/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tbonespeaks Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tbonespeaks Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tbonespeaks Who is Dr. Tarun Agarwal?

The Treatment Coordinator Experience with Crystal Pion

You can say a treatment coordinator is a lot like being a sales person, but instead of closing deals, they close dental procedures for patients as they are scheduled by dentists. Their role is to make sure the schedule is followed and every patient has a complete treatment plan. More than planning, they are also critical when it comes to bridging the communication gap between dentist and patient. Because of her innate skill set and time management skills, it wasn’t difficult to see how Crystal Pion would not only take charge of this role, but revel in it. Today, Crystal joins us to share what it’s like being a treatment coordinator for my practice. She describes what her role entails, the responsibilities assigned to her, and what she’s learned from it. She discusses what her daily routine looks like and how the pandemic has affected the practice as a whole. She explains the importance of communication, especially now that everyone is going virtual. Crystal also shares what her job was like before joining my team and her thoughts on our practice. "Communication is key if you want to be successful." - Crystal Pion This week on T-Bone Speaks Dentistry Podcast: Crystal’s role as our treatment coordinator.Why I chose Crystal for her current position.Opportunities for multiple roles and managing your responsibilities.What Crystal believes a treatment coordinator needs to become successful.Crystal's day-to-day schedule and routines.The importance of follow-up in any type of business.How frequent should a follow-up be and when should you stop?Crystal's opinion on how our practice is built and run.What Crystal's work was before she joined our practice.Our Favorite Quotes: “You have to have time to follow-up with patients you didn’t really get to bond with to see what they need to get them where they want to be.” - Crystal Pion"We all want good communication.
