This is a passionate episode where Dr Daniel discusses his quick rise to success and fame, bi-passing traditional dentistry and getting to the the big full arch and full mouth cases early in his career. He describes how he rose so quickly in his success, and the struggles of dealing with a single patient that caused him to lose nearly everything. He's returned to dentistry even stronger because of his experience in rising, falling, and quickly recovering back to a state of bullet proof success.
Dr. Daniel was so gracious to share his story about how 1 patient destroyed the empire he built. His experience is important as any dentist or business owner can or may be targeted by bad people who make a living off of the backs of hard working and honest people. Dr Daniel describes how he entered the world of cosmetic dentistry so early in his career and quickly became the most famous dentist in eastern Canada. At a young age he built a 2 million dollar solo-practitioner practice, completely fee for service, and almost exclusively a high end cosmetic practice. At a time where he was enjoying the fruits of his labor, he was targeted in an intentionally malicious way, by a patient who had a history of defrauding doctors. At the time, Dr Daniel was unaware of this patients litigious history. In the end, Dr Daniel was harmed financially and unnecessarily. Tempted to leave dentistry altogether, Dr Daniel was able to heal, recover, and return to the profession he loves and with great glory. His experience makes him a true mentor to those in the profession who are struggling in any way. We thank him for being courageous in sharing his story on our podcast.
