"We trust Matt to pressure test the vendors and keep us focused on systems that truly drive EBITDA."
Curious how leading DSOs are navigating tech, staffing, and growth challenges? Here are answers to the questions Matthew gets asked most—from multi-site operators to up-and-coming vendors.
Start by fixing what’s fragmented. From RCM to scheduling to vendor workflows, Matthew helps operators streamline systems under one strategy—so your team stops fighting fires and starts driving performance.
Tech won’t fix culture—but the right tools can support it. Clear onboarding, tight feedback loops, and efficient admin systems help teams focus on care instead of cleanup.
Tune into the right signals. Matthew breaks down what matters—AI trends, M&A moves, GTM shifts—and filters out the noise so operators can act, not react.
It’s not just about tracking—it’s about interpreting. Matthew helps DSOs select, implement, and make sense of analytics tools that actually inform operational decisions and vendor performance.
A Podcast Featuring Conversations with the People Behind the Platforms.
Let’s talk EBITDA! Actually… just kidding.
This isn’t your typical dental podcast. I’m going off script — less about operational efficiencies and more about the people, the stories, and the vision behind the business.
Each episode is a real conversation with operators, founders, and innovators in the dental space. We’ll dig into what drives them, what they’re building toward, and what their version of a better dental world looks like.
I’m a big fan of prequels — the backstories, the early bets, the stuff that doesn’t always make it into the highlight reel. That’s what this show is about.
And sure — we’ll mix in some dental talk too, if we get there.
