Starting a Practice with Your Spouse, with Dr. Cyrus Safizadeh

Dr. Cyrus Safizadeh is a pediatric dentist who opened a practice with his wife, a general dentist, shortly before COVID. They grew this practice together throughout the pandemic challenges to come out thriving on the other side. Dr. Cyrus talks about the benefits of working closely with a general dentist and utilizing the skillsets and technology that his wife brings to the practice. He shares how they have balanced Medicaid patients to keep a healthy new patient flow on both the pediatric and adult side. He is kind of enough to open up and talk freely about his practice numbers and how he plans for growth.  We also discuss how they made a 150k investment in a CAD-CAM unit, and Dr. Cyrus has ended up using it extensively in pediatric dentistry. After being exposed to so much general dentistry, he also talks about why he no longer starts sweating at the site of extensive permanent tooth decay and treatment plans.
