Many doctors know that going from dental school to associateship will be an adjustment, yet are not fully prepared for all this transition entails. Not only does this impact the associate, but it’s also a change for the practice owner who’s bringing in the new doctor. 

To give perspectives from both sides, practice owner Dr. Dan Butterman and his associate and son, Dr. Kevin Butterman, discuss how they’re bridging the gap between dental school and real-world experience, while setting the foundation for their future. These two episodes cover a lot of ground, from the working relationship of father and son, early stage of associateship, impact of continuing education and potential for a future partnership transition.
