Adam came to Suzanne very early in his practice ownership journey. But he's still poured a lot of capital into his newly acquired abandoned corporate space. After gutting a dental office plumbed for six operatories, he's struggling to know where to go from here. He knows he can grow but does he have to add Fridays? And does he really *need* an associate?

The one and only Dr. Richard Low kicks off our new Monday segment. While bouncing ideas off Matt Ford, recent buyer of his fourth practice, the two bring up a popular question: Should I buy a second practice? If the answer for you is 'yes', we touch on how, which one, and crucially: why?

With three staff out on maternity leave, Nyjah's two-doc, three-hygiene practice is still at a crossroads. With a 67% patient acceptance, we may or may not tear into him a little as we encourage him to build out systems for retention and case presentation. For Nyjah, it's now a matter of getting the reps in and build his practice. Listen in as we turn up the heat on Nyjah.

Two of our pre-owner segment hosts kick off our Pre-Owner Brain Trust roundtable. Facilitated by Steven Beard and Andrew Clingan, we'll feature SP regulars and current Pre-Owner Mastermind members. Today, we learn about knowing yourself, how to make connections with buyers--the dos (and definitely do NOTS) while marketing yourself as a Pre-Owner.

Mondays are now dedicated to practice owners, free of the concept of seasons. Monday episodes will have four alternating types (don't worry; Richard will be on at least half of them)! Wednesday and Friday will remain largely the same as we position our week thusly: Monday - for owners Wednesday- for those in pursuit of ownership Friday - the tried-and-true Practice Underwater format Now, catch up with George and Alex as they share details of the webinar!

After acquiring somewhat of a group practice, our real-doc-fake-name Nyjah has some growth to do. With the risk of team members leaving after their maternity leave, he's going to hire more staff into his already-crowded practice. Can he grow fast enough to support it, or should he be looking at bigger problems altogether? Plus, lucky for him, he's looking forward to Matt's and Alex' roasting in the intro and outro.

You're in the right place with the right episode title now. Today's information-dense episode comes courtesy of our new co-host Andrew. He brings Payton on as they discuss Payton's lessons from working with Shared Practices, and specifics he's gleaned about practice management.

After 15 years of Emmy-ward winning broadcast and investigative journalism, our guest Christine Haas is grateful to now be using the media as a brand awareness tool for her clients. Having found Christine through asking around on set at The Wellness Hour, Richard and she discuss the incredible persuasive power television still has. https://www.christinehaas.com/ https://christinehaasmedia.clickfunnels.com/call-me
