with supported doctors. Pat links the practice to trust rather than pressure.“ These tools help create trust and transparency for supported practices,” he explains. He connects the approach to Heartland Dental’ s roots.“ Dr. Workman believed this is something that set Heartland Dental’ s support model apart.” The system avoids quotas.“ As a doctor-led culture and support network, we do not have quotas. A doctor prescribes the care they believe their patient needs.”
Heartland Dental University
At Heartland Dental supported practices, doctors are the leader of the practice, and developing leadership is essential. Heartland Dental University( HDU) anchors that effort. Pat frames the belief plainly.“ Heartland Dental support practices always believed that strong practices are led by strong leaders, not just strong clinicians.” The view
scales.“ As we work toward our 2030 vision of supporting more than 10,000 doctors leading practices, we continue to evolve our approach to leadership development to match today’ s realities.”
HDU provides access to continuing education across clinical, business, and leadership skills. Pat describes HDU not as a collection of courses, but as an operating system for helping supported practices develop great doctors, great practice leaders, and great team members.“ We have a dedicated team within Heartland Dental developing training content and clinical leaders, who are also practicing dentists, who partner with the HDU team to inform and execute continuing education.
“ Leadership development is a core part of our culture and our commitment to being a world‐class organization in dentistry.” Pat also points to a long-standing partnership
