A little about Robert
A Denplan member since 1999, Robert is the principal dentist at The Broadway Dental Practice in Thatcham and has over 750 Denplan patients. Since moving to Denplan, he has moved his child patients to Plans for Children, become Denplan Excel Accredited, taken on an Associate and purchased the practice premises.
His relationship with Denplan has gone from strength to strength over the years and he’s enjoying the independence and financial security that his membership brings.
My work/life balance is fantastic, I have the life I’ve always wanted."
Enjoying the benefits
One of the reasons why Robert enjoys working with Denplan so much is because he is now able to control his work, rather than his work controlling him:
“I love coming to work knowing I only have to do the hours I choose. Whether I need to attend my daughter’s school play or want to do an extra session at the gym, I can because I am in control.”
“I have the flexibility and security in the knowledge that when I’m not in the practice I am not losing money. Thanks to Denplan, my practice and my dental team are thriving, and our patients are loyal and enjoying good oral health.”
Denplan business support
Robert is also enjoying the support and help he receives from Denplan, especially from his Consultant, Stephanie:
“There’s nothing like a crisis to pull a team together and from early on in our relationship Denplan was by our side throughout. It was a big learning curve and the practice has gone from strength to strength in the ten years we’ve been with Denplan.”
It is reassuring to know that I have the help and support I need for the entire practice team in terms of business support, training, marketing and PR as and when I need it."
“Our Consultant, Steph also attends regular business development meetings with us here at the practice, ensuring we continue to benefit from products and services that will enhance and grow our business, as well as delivering cost savings and efficiencies.”
What does the future hold?
Robert is looking forward to taking a well earned holiday and knows that he will come back to a profession he feels passionate about:
"I enjoy going away, and even went on the Denplan Ski Conference; it was great for networking with other like-minded colleagues both professionally and socially and I would love to do something similar in the future.”
"It’s also nice knowing that I am coming back to a life that I feel totally content with. This is what I have always wanted, I love my job and get to enjoy my life outside of work – it’s a great balance."
