Assess whether your practice is ready
Examine the financial, patient-volume, staffing, and space considerations that shape your readiness for an associate.

Associate Driven Practice Program
Evaluate your next move, prepare for implementation, and plan an associate's development with private guidance from Dr. Dean DePice.
One complete program. Work through it at your pace over approximately two months.
Watch Dr. Dean introduce a more intentional way to think about your practice's future.
Look five years ahead
Maybe you want fewer hours adjusting while staying involved in the practice you built. Maybe you want to grow, develop another doctor, or prepare for someone to carry your work forward.
Or maybe an associateship has already fallen apart, and you want to understand what to do differently.
Those goals deserve a plan.
ADP gives you a structured way to work through readiness, training, compensation, responsibilities, and the future of your practice before making decisions that are difficult to undo.
Preparation creates options
You do not have to be ready to retire - or even ready to hire - to start planning.
Examine the financial, patient-volume, staffing, and space considerations that shape your readiness for an associate.
Explore how to advertise, interview, evaluate the working relationship, and begin training with fewer avoidable surprises.
Use the seven-level ADP framework to align training, responsibilities, compensation, and expectations over time.
