267: How Getting Out of the Chair Tripled Their Dental Group

What if the thing that finally pulled you out of the chair wasn't a plan, but a crisis? Emmett Scott sits down with Dr. Alex and Bobby, co-founders of Halex Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, a 15-location pediatric dental and orthodontics group they've built together over nearly two decades in coastal Virginia. Bobby spent years as the lead producer while Alex ran the business. Then a sudden open heart surgery forced him out of the chair for three months, and the practice kept growing without him. That moment changed everything. They open up about rebuilding after bad partnerships and financial setbacks, why chasing revenue instead of profit is a trap, what it really looks like to hire people smarter than yourself, and how building a team bigger than any one person is what finally unlocked real growth.
