Vacations are vital to maintaining your effectiveness as a dentist.

But too many people think about vacations in the wrong way.

They think of a vacation as a reward for hard work instead of seeing them as a preparation for being more effective.

What you do on a daily basis is physically, emotionally, and mentally draining. That's why you need to spend time recharging and reenergizing.

We recommend that you take a week off every 6 to 8 weeks.

But to do that takes some forethought and preparation...

You need to make sure your office and finances are in order.

You need to make sure your team is prepared and they are able to take abundant vacations.

In this episode we will dive into a few more important points you need to consider when planning for vacations.

Have you ever thought about owning multiple practices?

Having more than one practice can open up a new level of growth and opportunities, and when done the right way can provide you with more freedom.

On this episode of the podcast, we continue our series on owning multiple practices with Dr. Chris Campus.

Dr. Campus has three dental practices in Florida and we talk to him about how he handles running three separate practices and the lessons he has learned in the process.

Dr. Campus is a practicing dentist in Pensacola, Florida. Since graduating from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 2008 he has worked as an associate, purchased four dental practices, performed two mergers, and has started an additional practice from scratch. He currently has four full-time associates and over twenty team members in three locations.

He is actively involved in all of the day to day operations of the practices and still manages to take off a minimum of 12 weeks each year. Dr. Campus is actively involved in our Connection program and has been a member of our "Big Docs" group for our top individual producers.

Dr. Campus has "walked the walk" as a highly productive and profitable clinician, manager, and dental entrepreneur. The passion he has for dentistry and the business of dentistry is as obvious as the amount he enjoys helping other meet the goals they once thought unreachable.

In this episode, you will…

• Understand why Dr. Campus has a team travel with him
• Realize the need to duplicate equipment across the offices to allow him to be most efficient and productive
