One of the most fulfilling aspects of Kevin’s 35+ years in dental practice transitions is all the wonderful people he has met along the way. In many cases, he has the good fortune of calling them friends. Like the profession of dentistry, Kevin’s greatest gratification has been helping others and the relationships he has built with some amazing people. When you help a dentist achieve their career goals–often with a “thank you” and “I could not have done it without you”– the feeling is unmatched. During his career, Kevin has been blessed with five wonderful children, a supportive wife and many friends. For all of it, he is very grateful.
