In the past few weeks, since January, I have talked personally to a few doctors who have been turned down by DSOs because they were making too much money.<\/a> Too profitable for any one doctor to be able to reliably replace them and sustain their practice levels of success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They, the owner doctor, had become too valuable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s, as the saying goes, \u2018a good problem to have\u2019 and it\u2019s the problem I intend to create for every doctor I ever meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your business is so successful that you can practice on your own terms. Not chasing money\u2026 chasing your passion. Not making a living\u2026 living a life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This happens again and again because what DSOs and corporations want are cookie cutter, one-size fits all, replaceable (replicate-able) doctors in a practice they can \u2018manage by numbers\u2019 and minimize (not maximize) the people. A practice that matches their plug-and-play solutions of protocols, systems, and margins for an attempt to commoditize dentistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, this is great if you are buying a franchise as an investment where any random person can fill each role. However, it\u2019s no good if you want to be unique, premium priced, profitable, and able to leverage your time to work less and live more without making less and doing more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
