Impactful Wisdom - Helpful Strategies For A Successful Dental Career Cathy Telles, Ashley Morgan, Brian Perry and the Heartland Dental Campus Team

It’s a bittersweet moment for us – this will be Impactful Wisdom’s final episode! We have enjoyed bringing you different topics to think about no matter where you are in your dental journey. 

Throughout the podcast episodes, we have discussed a wide variety of topics including how to prepare for life after school, understanding contracts, the first 60 days as a clinician, diversity in dentistry, life after being chairside, and everything in between. 

We had the pleasure of having Heartland Dental Founder, Dr. Rick Workman on the very first episode back in 2020 when we first premiered!  We are grateful for his leadership and have the pleasure of having him on once again for our final episode. 

Don’t worry, you’ll still be able to access all our archived episodes wherever you get your podcasts! Thank you for your support of Impactful Wisdom! 
--Ashley, Brian, & Cathy

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to start in a brand-new dental office without the overhead cost? Here’s your chance! We’re joined by Dr. Stephanie Zbin who began her dental career in a DeNovo office right out of dental school and has also transferred to a different office across the country!  We’re also joined by Stacey Smith, Director of DeNovo Recruitment. In this episode we’ll discuss what is a Heartland Dental DeNovo, the benefits of joining this type of office, and how you can start as a new grad (or experienced doctor!)  We’ll dive into how sites are selected, the support you’ll receive, investing in your community, and so much more.

Part 1 – Dr. Stephanie Zbin

Marcelo will share his personal life story and how he became a dentist in Mexico to now working in the US. Listen in on his amazing journey!
