Christina is a mother and wife first.  A dentist second. She loves dentistry but understands the value of quality time spent with her family and friends.  She enjoys the aesthetics of dentistry and has learned how to pursue her artistic talents in this field.  Her father, Dr. Bill Blatchford was a successful dentist and it seemed the natural progression for her to follow in his footsteps.  Originally, Christina pursued a fashion path and received her B of A.  After working at Nordstroms for a bit she realized she needed more.  She went back to school and became an interior architect specializing in dental practices.  After a bit of time she realized she wanted the lifestyle she was given growing up and needed to pursue a career in dentistry to allow these opportunities for not only her but her husband and young daughter.  She now works two to three days a week and takes eight weeks off every year.  There is a specific formula to this lifestyle that Christina and her father would like to share with more dentists.  Blatchford Solutions is a practice management company that helps only fifty doctors a year pursue the lifestyle they want to live.  Too many dentists run on a rat race of a huge overhead, working four to five days a week and taking maybe two to three weeks of vacation a year.   http://www.blatchford.com

Mark Eric Bailey is a graduate of Dickinson College in Carlisle, PA. He has been actively engaged in real estate brokerage / development / investment as well as the creation of several businesses over his career. He has arranged business financing for 36 years and has served health professionals exclusively as Capital4HealthCare, LLC since the early 1990s. In 2005, he founded Dentcetera-Advisors, LLC to provide dentists acquiring practices with buyer’s representation services nationwide. Dr. Chaffin joined Mark in each of these endeavors and in 2009 they founded Dental Recovery Solutions 360, LLC together.   Mr. Bailey’s endeavors have followed the business trends in dentistry. First, he focused on carefully crafting financing for dentists to excel in practice with Capital4HealthCare, LLC. Its not the rate, term or amount of a loan but the combination thereof which creates the best financing solutions.   During the growth years of dentistry pre-2008, it became apparent that practice buyers were not being represented well during a practice purchase. Thus Dentcetera-Advisors, LLC was born to provide buyer representation.   And when the economy collapsed in late 2008 it became apparent that Dental Recovery Solutions 360, LLC was required to serve dentists, lenders, landlords, BK trustees, etc to save dental practices, professional careers and prevent patient abandonment issues. DRS-360 is the only firm in America focused exclusively in dentistry for these services.   Mr. Bailey is a widower and blessed father of a teenage daughter and 3 awesome cats. He resides in Lancaster, Pennsylvania; enjoys fine cars, reading and the beach.   Dr. James R. Chaffin is a 2004 graduate of Loma Linda University School of Dentistry and a 2008 graduate of LVI.
