Dr. Christopher Chance is a pediatric dentist and the owner of Oaks Point Pediatric Dentistry in Houston, Texas. He joins the podcast to tell us more about his start-up journey to create a boutique practice in an edgy, modern office in the growing Houston area. 

We drink a few cold beers and talk about some of the following start-up topics: 

- Using corporate associateships as a practice run for a start-up 

- Challenges with securing lending for a large or expensive practice space

- Using local resources and professionals in the community to create and design a modern practice space

- Marketing using word-of-mouth and social media

- Understanding how start-ups have a young patient base that matures over time, and how the demand for dental services evolve

Happy Holidays to all listeners and hard working pediatric dentists out there. I hope you all take some much deserved time to relax with your families. Don't forget that any listener questions, concerns, or ideas for future topics can be sent to cgoetz@troypediatricdentist.com.
