What if attracting better patients, reducing no-shows, and cutting insurance headaches could all happen before someone ever walks into your practice?

In this episode, Dr. Len Tau sits down with Tobi Bosede, Founder and CEO of Dental Find, to explore how smart marketplaces, prepaid care, and membership-style models are reshaping dental growth.

Tobi shares her journey from building AI systems for Fortune 500 companies to solving one of dentistry’s biggest pain points: patient acquisition without no-shows, awkward financial conversations, or insurance dependency. This conversation dives into scaling intentionally, avoiding burnout, and building businesses that actually last.
