Show Notes
On today’s episode, Dr. Mark Costes answers a wide range of listener questions in this Ask Me Anything edition, covering everything from managing serious back issues as a dentist to weighing the pros and cons of a de novo startup versus acquiring an existing practice. Mark shares his personal experience with spine surgeries, posture, core strength, ergonomics, and the importance of getting the right clinical support when pain becomes unmanageable.
He also breaks down the strategic considerations behind starting fresh, buying an existing office, evaluating demographics, managing cash flow, planning for growth, and building toward a larger platform practice. The episode wraps with stories from Mark’s upcoming and past mission trips, including Honduras, Fiji, the Dominican Republic, Tanzania, and the impact of providing care in communities with limited access to dentistry.
