Drs. Heath Coleman and Ty Barnes - Selling and Starting DSO's
In this episode of the All In Practice Growth Podcast, host Shane McElroy is joined by Dr. Ty Barnes and Dr. Heath Coleman from Secure Dentures and Implants. They share their journey from dental school at the University of Oklahoma to becoming successful clinical directors and eventually founding their own practices.
The conversation begins with Shane discussing the podcast's new video format and his excitement about the guests. He then delves into the backstory of Ty and Heath, highlighting their unique bond formed during dental school, where they discovered they both received acceptance letters to the same program.
Ty and Heath describe their distinct paths after graduation, with Ty joining a dental service organization (DSO) and Heath working at a different location. They reminisce about their early experiences in dentistry, the challenges of placing implants, and their commitment to continuous learning and mentorship.
As their careers progressed, they became clinical directors within their DSO, focusing on expanding implant services. They discuss the importance of mentorship and the impact it had on their growth as dentists. The conversation shifts to their decision to sell the DSO to Affordable Dentures and the challenges that came with the transition, especially regarding corporate culture and patient care.
After the acquisition, both doctors navigated changes in their roles and ultimately decided to part ways with the organization in 2020 to pursue their own practices. They launched Secure Dentures and Implants, with a focus on implant dentistry and a commitment to patient care.
Throughout the episode, Ty and Heath emphasize the importance of building a positive practice culture, patient relationships, and effective marketing strategies. They highlight their commitment to quality care, utilizing advanced technology, and fostering a supportive environment for both staff and patients.
