For dentists considering joining a dental support organization (DSO), there may be a lot of questions about what to expect. While there are different types of DSOs, MDP is relatively unique in that it is completely owned by dentists and employees. As active owners, dentists drive the administrative decisions that shape MDP as a whole, particularly those decisions that will impact their practices.
Dentists who are supported by MDP receive comprehensive support and clinical autonomy, allowing them the freedom to thrive in their practice. Here are some highlights of what an MDP-supported dentist can expect:
Clinical Autonomy. MDP prioritizes the relationship between dentists and patients. Dentists can utilize their expertise and judgment to deliver the best possible patient care, free from external dictation. This patient-centered focus has earned MDP an outstanding reputation with industry-leading Google Review ratings.
Guided Career Progression. Our Hire to Retire program allows each dentist to craft a personalized career journey. A dentist’s individual path is designed around their professional, financial, and personal aspirations, ultimately maximizing both personal fulfillment and wealth accumulation.
Continuing Education. MDP offers a comprehensive program for ongoing professional development designed to help dentists enhance their clinical skills and proficiency throughout their career. From hands-on clinical training to leadership sessions, we provide an easy path for growth.
Collegiality. MDP-supported dentists benefit from the collective expertise of over 240 dentists and other professionals. Dentists can connect with them at any time to discuss clinical or other work-related issues, including through a virtual clinical forum. Each MDP dentist is also assigned a colleague from our Clinical Affairs team, a group of active clinicians who help drive clinical excellence, provider development, and patient-centered care through education, mentorship, and communication.
Engagement. We offer various ways for dentists to engage with MDP. Through informal communications, surveys, regular Hire to Retire meetings, our Clinical Committee (designed by clinicians for clinicians), and our Advisory Council, dentists can provide valuable insights. This input helps shape the company’s clinical direction and key MDP initiatives from a provider’s perspective.
Ownership. We offer dentists a dual ownership track through our Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) and direct investment options, giving each dentist a vested interest in MDP’s success.
Additional Perks. In addition to a comprehensive benefits program, MDP also offers some unique perks to dentists in our organization:
- Paid professional liability.
- Paid state license and DEA registration.
- Paid financial planning.
- White glove insurance broker.
Ultimately, MDP-supported dentists have the freedom to focus on excellent patient care while benefitting from a robust support system and an ownership stake in the organization’s success. If you are a dentist seeking a practice environment that respects your clinical expertise, supports your professional growth, and offers a path to genuine financial and career fulfillment, MDP could be the perfect place for you to thrive.
