Practice Management Insights (Two Temple Dental Grads)
- Name of sponsoring organization: Dental Practice Management Club
- Details of the activity (e.g., where, when): Spring 2025 (January)
- What you learned: I learned about how to build patient relations over the long term (Dr. Michael Bydaelk has 35 years of experience at his dental practice and shared a lot of insight) and also both the good and the struggles of a new grad (Dr. Ryan Bydaelk just graduated in 2024 and has been working full time).
- How the activity relates to coursework or your career goals: as someone who is nervous about being a new grad navigating the real world as a dentist soon – Dr. Ryan and Dr. Michael really helped instill confidence and give direction to navigating work right after graduating. They talked about what they would do differently and what they did that works so well.
