We are so excited to have back on the show for another legendary appearance, Dr. Gina Dorfman. Dr. G is the founder of the YAPI app which she and her husband run together. Irene says that integrating the paperless YAPI system was one of the best decisions she’s ever made for her practice. Dr. Gina created the YAPI software to make her work in her own practice easier. We talk through her experience of leaving Soviet Russia and opening her first dental practice. Dr. Gina’s true calling is clearly to dish out extremely helpful career advice. She provides some much needed triage of Irene’s difficult experiences in the nuances of managing her own new dental practice. Check out Dr. Dorfman's podcast here! Stay tuned for the outro to hear the unbelievably sweet ending to this story!
We cover some of these dental topics and much more:
- How do you bankrupt a dental office?
- How do you train staff to use new technology?
- What should discipline look like in a dental office?
- How can you tell when an employee is not a good fit?
