Canadian Dental Services, one of Canada’s fastest-growing DSOs, drives double-digit organic growth year over year. Their best practice managers have never worked a day in dentistry.
Jeremy Behar hired from Marriott and Starbucks on purpose. Every dental practice already has dental knowledge. What most are missing is the management instinct to turn patient volume into patient loyalty.
In this episode, Jeremy unpacks what actually drives double-digit organic growth at scale and why buying practices was never the answer.
Our Guest: Jeremy D. Behar is the Founder and CEO of Canadian Dental Services Corporation, one of Canada’s largest unsponsored DSOs. Before launching CDS in 2016, he spent 25 years running Sirrus Consulting Group, advising hundreds of dental practices across Canada and the United States on the business fundamentals dental school never taught them. He founded CDS on a single conviction: that the dental industry in Canada needed to be disrupted, and that removing the management burden from dentists was the path to a better patient experience and a better business.
In this episode:
- (0:00) Jeremy’s origin story: the commercial real estate deal that pulled him into dentistry
- (6:27) What CDS is built on: great patient care and great economics at the same time
- (9:34) Why Jeremy doesn’t believe he’s in the dental business: change management at multi-site scale
- (15:26) The Perfect Patient Experience program and the “choose your own adventure” problem
- (19:10) How CDS drives double-digit organic growth year after year: why doors don’t make payroll, patients do
- (21:05) Why CDS hires practice managers from Marriott and Starbucks instead of dental
- (25:02) The acquisition trust mistake Jeremy made early and the “don’t trust me” framework he built to fix it
- (28:14) The $100K EBITDA idea: find the holes in your top-of-funnel patient bucket and plug them one at a time
