“It’s no secret that many dentists desire a private practice experience out of their career, and in the past, the only way to ensure those benefits was through prac- tice ownership. However, what we’ve seen is that ownership isn’t necessarily what many dentists value. Rather, it’s clinical control, the ability to practice dentistry in a patient-centric environ- ment that places the focus on long-term patient relationships, and the opportu- nity to develop a tenured staff,” says Hale. “We’ve built Apex with those pri- orities in mind.” Matt Hale, President & COO, and David Lohmann, CEO, lead the business operations for Apex. When a doctor joins Apex, they gain access to a complete suite of non-clinical business and administrative services. “Our goal is to take everything non-clin- ical off our doctors’ plates, so they can focus on what’s most important – pro- viding high-quality patient care. We’ve built a tremendous team with world- class business expertise to help our sup- ported practices effectively compete Apex provides a complete suite of non-clinical busi- ness and administrative services so its supported doctors can focus on what is most important. 8 HOUSTON DENTISTRY | www.houstondentistrymagazine.com
