”Starting a Practice from Scratch” with Dr. Lincoln Parker

Meet Dr. Lincoln Parker of Hales Parker Dentistry in Ladera Ranch, CA. 

La-dera Ranch is a community located in south Orange County, California, just outside the city limits of San Juan Capistrano. 2010 census had 22,980 people living in Ladera Ranch.  

Dr. Parker was born and raised in Orange County, CA and considers it the greatest place to live on earth.  Even last week when I was arranging this podcast with him he was driving home from Redwood National Park with his family and said it was his favorite place to go with his family.  

He attending Brigham Young University for his undergraduate education where he also met and married his wife Mimi.  Then they moved to Las Vegas to attend dental school at the University of Las Vegas.  It was there that Dr. Parker says, "I was exposed to many aspects of dental care. It was a newer school and that afforded me the opportunity to experience the latest in technology. There I was also able to push my skills beyond typical dental schools due to the faculty’s desire to give us as much clinical experience as possible."

He is a passionate learner and has created an environment that focused on the long term relationships and health of his patients, and maybe he will talk about this a little today, but he went to work for a corporate owned dental practice right out of school.  It was there learned what type of practice he wanted to own - and great topic for today.  

You can feel Dr. Parker's passion for his profession and helping people by just visiting his website, spending some time on his social media pages and watching a few of the videos he has recorded of what his patients say about him.  

We are grateful to have him with us today to talk about his journey creating a practice from scratch and what he learned along the way.
