Show Notes

In this episode, Howard Farran sits down with Dr. Bob “Dee” Dokhanchi — a private practice dentist since 1993, entrepreneur, media publisher, and tireless advocate for the profession. A 1992 graduate of Loyola University Chicago College of Dental Surgery, Bob has earned a reputation as a forward-thinking leader with a deep interest in technology, software, and cloud systems, becoming widely known as the “cloud guy” for his practical advice on dental tech and digital strategy. He’s also the founder of Dentistry in General, a large verified dentist-only community built to foster candid discussion, support, and connection, along with its media arm spanning the DIG Radio Network, Dentistry’s Digest, and the DIG-A-PALOOZA live CE event.

The conversation centers on organized dentistry and advocacy — the role of the ADA, the communication gap between organized dentistry and everyday dentists, and how the Dentistry in General Advocacy Coalition aims to improve transparency and engagement across the profession. Bob also shares his personal decision to run for office, seeking the Secretary position within the Illinois State Dental Society through a ladder system that leads to the presidency, and what motivated him to step off the sidelines and get directly involved. It’s a candid look at why grassroots leadership matters and how individual dentists can shape the direction of their own profession.
