Quotes & Notes:

  • As dentists, we are from the heart.  That’s why we went into dentistry in the first place. So, growing your business should be authentic. Dr. Ginger Bratzel's Bold Biography - RD Podcasts

  • I thought it was “marvelous me” that they needed.  That was a mistake. It wasn’t about me.  It was about the patients.
  • I love the dental community.  But we are always closed-minded and in the box
  • It’s not the tool that makes the difference. It’s the connection to the patient.
  • I want people that are smarter than me working with me doing what they are good at.
  • I’m afraid of not living up to my full potential.
  • Fail faster and get up faster.
