What if you could grow your dental practice without ever compromising patient experience?

In this episode, host Jordin McEntire talks with Dr. Rania Saleh, DDS, MSD, Founder and CEO of Oryx Dental Software.

She opens up about the challenges of leading innovation in an industry resistant to change, how Oryx helps teams shift from reactive to proactive dentistry, and why staying close to your patients and your purpose is the key to lasting growth.
