A Journey of Growth and Learning
4th and 5th May 2019
Behind every successful dental clinic is not only a skilled dentist but also a strong understanding of business practices. At Saujana Dental Clinic, this combination forms the foundation of our mission to provide exceptional dental care. This vision stems from our own Dr. Yazid, whose journey in dentistry began with a deep passion for learning both the clinical and business aspects of running a practice.
Did you know that Dr. Yazid’s first professional course after graduating was titled Business in Dentistry? This milestone played a significant role in shaping the direction of Saujana Dental Clinic, allowing Dr. Yazid to build a practice that balances patient care with sound business operations.
An Inspiring Beginning: Business in Dentistry Course
Dr. Yazid attended the Business in Dentistry course on 4th and 5th May 2019 at The Dental Academy, Subang Jaya. It was a pivotal experience that introduced him to essential topics like marketing, management, and accountancy. These lessons were instrumental in equipping Dr. Yazid with the foundational knowledge required to open and successfully manage his own clinic.
Driven by a deep affection for business and a desire to learn more, Dr. Yazid took this step to ensure he could complement his clinical expertise with strong business acumen. This decision laid the groundwork for a career that prioritizes both excellence in patient care and effective practice management.
The Dental Academy: Empowering Dental Professionals
The Business in Dentistry course was hosted by The Dental Academy, a leading institution in Malaysia dedicated to advancing the knowledge and skills of dental professionals. Known for its comprehensive programs and experienced mentors, The Dental Academy has helped countless dentists excel in their careers.
Industry Leaders at the Helm
The course was led by two esteemed figures in the dental industry:
- Dr. Bala: The founder of The Dental Academy, Dr. Bala is a trailblazer in the dental profession. His contributions include establishing The Dental City, The Dentist chain of clinics, and SEBARIS clear aligners. Dr. Bala’s entrepreneurial success has made him a role model for dentists aspiring to blend clinical expertise with business innovation.
- Mr. Kavin: Serving as the CEO of The Dental Academy, Kavin brings extensive experience and industry insights. His leadership has been instrumental in shaping programs that help dentists navigate the complexities of managing a successful practice.
Both Dr. Bala and Mr. Kavin shared valuable insights during the course, making it a transformative experience for participants like Dr. Yazid.
