Join us for the 2023 Annual Session of TWO Orthodontist Associations in one, huge event! This is an exciting combined constituent meeting between the SAO and SWSO! This meeting will offer endless opportunities for learning, networking, and having fun for all attendance! The pristine beaches that once tempted pirates and adventurers to Amelia Island in Florida are now the perfect destination for learning and networking. In addition to clinical and practice management/improvement lectures, two fantastic keynote speakers will inspire and entertain. Two-time national champion, Tim Tebow will kick things off on Thursday. Actor, comedian and social media sensation, Josh Mancuso will join us Friday!
Chris will be presenting, Valuations and Transitions 101, on Thursday, October 26 at 4:00pm. This course will give doctors the fundamentals of what is involved in a practice valuation, the information required, the benchmarks in orthodontics today. A discussion of how and OSO valuation is different will also be discussed; doctors will understand what EBITDA is and the various choices for corporate transitions that exist for orthodontists. The course will also discuss end of practice life cycle transitions (heading toward retirement), bringing in a partner for the first time, a partner exiting a practice and a look at options for new and younger doctors. A packed hour of practice valuation, transition, and associate options for all doctors in any phase of their practice lifecycle.
Chris will also be sharing, Business Management: Trends, Innovations, & Insights, on Friday, October 27 at 2:30pm. Asking how your practice will stay competitive is one of the simplest, yet most important questions you can ask. Trends come and go - but it’s always business as usual. The way orthodontists are doing business is changing in many ways and one must understand these shifts to adapt and stay aggressive. In this lecture, Chris will examine consumer demographics, explore today's rapidly changing market trends, dive into real practice data, and much more.
