Dr. Mark Van Duker and his wife Evelyn are starting off on the venture of a lifetime together. Michael Dinsio talks to them about trials and tribulations. The upcoming challenges when first opening the doors. He also asks the questions that are important when leading up to the Grand Opening. The Van Dukers nailed this episode and were super open and great sports talking about what it takes when you decide to do a dental practice start up.
Dr. Mark became a dentist because his childhood hero was a dentist. His grandfather, a World War Two veteran from humble beginnings, became a dentist after the war. Dr. Mark has many fun memories of his grandfather, and ultimately chose dentistry to be more like him. Science was also a big part of Dr. Mark’s life because his mother was an anatomy professor, always requiring him to work extra hard in science classes.
During Dr. Mark’s undergraduate education, he became interested in working with children. At that time, his nephew was diagnosed with autism. To better understand his brother’s situation, Dr. Mark began volunteering with local programs that helped children with special needs. Through this he not only gained empathy for parents of children with special healthcare needs, but also had a lot of fun. He found that putting smiles on kids’ faces and giving them individualized attention brought meaning to his life.
Dr. Mark attended dental school at the highly ranked University of Washington School of Dentistry, followed by his pediatric dentistry residency at top-ranked Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C. Dr. Mark's mentor in residency served on the leadership of the Board of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry.

He knew for years that his ultimate professional goal was to start his own pediatric dental office. Casey wanted to have that autonomy and be in control of his career so that he could deliver his own dentistry in a way that he believed to be superior.
Casey briefly associated with another office for eight months after residency, and then COVID hit and was laid off. The pandemic ended up being a blessing in disguise. Suddenly he had countless hours isolated at home where he could begin working on his dream practice. Listen to this episode to see how his story began.
Check out the link to Casey's course, there's a trailer that gives you some information and insight into how it's all put together! https://littlesmilespracticemastery.thinkific.com/

Dr. Kasey Hall attended Portland State University where he graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in General Science. Dr. Hall then attended Oregon Health Science University School of Dentistry where he developed a strong desire to pursue a career working with children.
Following dental school, Dr. Hall accepted associate dentist positions in El Paso, Texas and Santa Fe, NM at pediatric offices. During his time in the southwest Dr. Hall trained in a wide range of pediatric dentistry, including soft tissue surgery and behavior management.
After 5 years in the southwest, Dr. Hall and his family left on another adventure. This time taking them to the Northeast where he attended an intensive two-year hospital residency in pediatric dentistry at St. Joseph Hospital for Specialty Care in Providence, Rhode Island. During residency, he became competent in all facets of pediatric dentistry, including surgery, sedation, treatment of trauma, and orthodontics.
Dr. Hall is awaiting board eligibility with the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry and is a member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. He is also a member of the American Dental Association and Rhode Island Dental Association.
Dr. Hall finds the relationships he develops with his patients and their families to be the best part of his work. He enjoys joking and telling children stories while he provides treatment to them. He wants his patients to enjoy their visits and develop a healthy relationship with dentistry.
As a parent of four kids, he understands the unpredictability of life with children. He tries to make himself available for his patients whenever problems arise. He believes strongly in a preventative approach to dentistry combined with the most up-to-date science and technology.
Dr. Hall grew up just outside of Portland, Oregon and is married to Jenees Hall. Together they have one son, Milo and three daughters, Hazel, Thea and Halle. Their family enjoys board games, movie nights and spending as much time as possible outside
