  • Great Podcast

    I originally met Perrin on a bicycle ride. And have been hearing from him ever since. Always a wealth of knowledge on dental business. Nowadays there seems to be a ton of dental podcasts, all talking about the same thing. Group Practice Accelerator Podcast stands out. Their content is fresh and applicable. And yes the brew on that Keurig is awful. Nespresso is better.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

An Inside Job: Turning Untapped Potential into Organic Growth, with Polaris’ Greg Mahoney
Q: How can an owner identify the biggest organic growth opportunities in a group practice?
Start by assessing financial and operational performance, select relevant KPIs, compare practices to find differences in performance, and look for opportunities to use existing space, services and staff capabilities before making additional purchases.
An Inside Job: Turning Untapped Potential into Organic Growth, with Polaris’ Greg Mahoney
Q: Why should group practice owners prioritize organic growth when acquisitions and new locations are often seen as a quicker way to grow?
Mahoney recommends first optimizing existing locations and leveraging their tangible assets, reputation, team skills and operating systems. Doing so can improve cash flow and build a scalable model that can later be replicated in new locations, while limiting the expense and risk of expansion.
Beyond the Brand: AI and Strategy-Driven Marketing to Accelerate Growth and Enhance Business Value with Sonia Hounsell, CEO AscendPoint Agency
Q: What does AI-driven search mean for practices, and what should an owner do to get started?
Hounsell recommends embracing AI search by maintaining consistent brand information, publishing authoritative content, earning reviews, and using platforms such as YouTube and Reddit where AI systems may find useful information.
Beyond the Brand: AI and Strategy-Driven Marketing to Accelerate Growth and Enhance Business Value with Sonia Hounsell, CEO AscendPoint Agency
Q: What does a strong marketing foundation look like for a group of practices that is just starting out?

Premium Value Essentials! Connecting the Dots Between Your Numbers and Your Next Move with Andrew Farrell, Founder of Farrell Financial
Q: How can owners plan for those big items that aren't showing up on your P&L?
Build a baseline forecast from production and expenses, incorporate debt service and owner draws, then model an acquisition or expansion separately. Work out its financing, cash needs, expected production, and return before committing.

Frequently Asked Questions About Group Practice Accelerator

What is Group Practice Accelerator about and what kind of topics does it cover?

This show targets founders and leaders of multi-location healthcare practices, especially dentistry and related group models. Episodes routinely explore growth strategies, governance, physician development, and exit planning, often framing value creation around structured operations, equity partnerships, and scalable systems. Listeners likely want practical frameworks to scale responsibly, improve doctor performance, and navigate mergers, acquisitions, or partnerships while preserving care quality. A standout theme is turning clinical leadership into business leverage—through mentorship, standardization, and governance—and using exit planning as a growth driver rather than a one-time event.
