Six Practice Owners Offer Insights into Benefits of Career with Aspen Dental In May 2010 Issue of Dentaltown

SYRACUSE, N.Y., May 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Dentists at Aspen Dental are on the leading edge of the trend to rethink the practice of dentistry, according to the cover story in the May 2010 issue of Dentaltown magazine. The clinicians profiled in the piece have joined the growing influx of dentists who have elected to pursue a rewarding career with a leading dental service organization (DSO) rather than follow the traditional model of private practice.

Titled "Rethinking the Practice of Dentistry," the cover story looks at six dentists in different stages of their careers -- from the recent graduate looking for a clear path to practice ownership to the well-established private practice owner seeking respite from the administrative, marketing and financial burdens of running a business -- and examines why joining Aspen Dental was the right choice for them.

The DSO model has become an increasingly attractive choice in recent years, particularly in today's challenged economic climate. Pursuing a career with Aspen Dental allows dentists the opportunity to focus on caring for patients and developing their practice, with the full support of a team of experts who provide comprehensive, integrated business services, as well as access to world-class to professional training and development programs.

The dentists featured in the story are:

  • Dr. Gabriel Iancu, who originally joined Aspen Dental as an associate dentist in 2003 and now owns a successful practice group with 10 locations stretching from New York's Hudson Valley to Vermont;
  • Dr. George Monios, an experienced clinician and former traditional private practice owner who joined Aspen Dental in January 2006, became a practice owner in 2007, and now oversees his five-practice group in western Pennsylvania;
  • Dr. John Fazio, who joined as an associate dentist in 2008 after more than 20 years in private practice, and became a partner of Dr. Monios in 2009;
  • Dr. Cristina Dominguez and Dr. Justin Griffee, who were recent graduates of Tufts University School of Dental Medicine when they joined Aspen in 2006 and 2007, respectively, and are now co-owners of three practices in Maine; and
  • Dr. Amrita Reddy, who was serving as a successful clinical director of two Aspen Dental practices in Massachusetts when she decided to take the plunge into ownership and now owns three New Hampshire practices.
