The Dentalpreneur Podcast w/ Dr. Mark Costes 2066: Fortifying the Dental Core Pt. 2
On today’s second part of this engaging two-part episode, we continue our in-depth conversation with Dr. Paul Goodman, also known as Dr. Nacho. The discussion dives into some of the most pressing issues facing the dental profession today, starting with the ever-increasing cost of dental education and the staggering student loan debt that new graduates face. Dr. Goodman candidly shares his perspective, acknowledging that if he were faced with the current financial realities of dental school—potentially graduating with over $550,000 in debt—he might not choose to pursue dentistry again, unless he were specializing in a field with immediate high earning potential. The conversation also touches on the emotional and financial burden of student debt, emphasizing the importance of thoroughly understanding the financial implications and having a solid plan to manage the debt post-graduation.
