254: When Being a Great Dentist Stops Growing Your Dental Practice

What if the reason your practice isn't growing has nothing to do with your dentistry? In this episode, Dr. Kalpesh Patel shares the uncomfortable truth most dentist-owners learn the hard way: great clinical skill doesn't equal a scalable business. He walks through going from a single practice to multiple locations, the personal sacrifices nobody talks about, why leadership is the real constraint, and how shifting from "doctor" to "developer of people" changed everything. This is a raw conversation about growth, humility, systems, and what it really takes to build something that lasts.
