Dentist to CEO is a battle-tested roadmap designed to give you the clarity, confidence, and practical strategy to step into ownership with purpose. It bridges the gap between clinical training and running a successful practice—equipping you with the financial, leadership, and negotiation skills that aren’t taught in dental school. The book also includes access to an online toolkit featuring real-world legal document examples and interactive dashboards to help you analyze debt and risk with confidence.
Evaluate a practice like an investor by using key metrics like cost-per-patient and net income.
Spot red flags in Letters of Intent (LOIs) and Profit & Loss (P&L) statements to avoid bad deals.
Structure your transition team and negotiate like a future CEO.
Understand why goodwill, patient retention, and team buy-in matter more than just equipment.
Learn to think and act like a leader before you even own a practice.
Dentist to CEO doesn’t just tell you how to think like an owner—it gives you the tools to actually become one. Alongside the book, you’ll get access to the Dentist to CEO Toolkit, a curated library of real-world resources used in actual practice transitions. From interactive dashboards that model your net worth, compare loan structures, and analyze deal risk, to practical worksheets that break down P&Ls, evaluate opportunities, and guide negotiations, every tool is designed to turn theory into action.
