สวัสดีค่ะ
So how do you use it to listen to Zoom calls? It's ok for phone calls and recording live but again now sure how it's used with Zoom?
I don't use it for zoom calls Duaine, I use Fathom to record zoom calls. Which is another awesome AI.
@@Dr_andrewchoi Thanks for the reply. I'm love my Plaud and will try the Fathom although I don't use Zoom much.
i am proud of you doctor, i wish one day to become like you, i am learning from you how to create my path in dentisty especially i am ex- architect :)
What are costs for procedure out of pocket
Check our website www.inlandchoicedental.com for estimates and ranges of the costs
keep it up!
Always!
Good luck!
Thanks!
I’ve just got it and love it!
What do you use it for? How do you like it after a month?
@@Dr_andrewchoiI use it to record work phone calls and keep summaries, and I use it for my meetings to then file the summary. I used to write copious notes and now I can listen to the meeting ! For informal meetings I use and share the summaries.
keep it up
Really recommend SPIN selling for the natural communication that lead to closes. Great stuff again!
Hey what's going on man. Your videos are interesting! Let's connect, are you on instagram? hit me up @dr_andrewchoi
What books would you suggest related to psychology?
Psychology? what kind of psychology are we talking?
@@Dr_andrewchoi Like understanding myself or understanding how people think, or what is your favorite book that you read that helped you grow as a person
keep it up
Thanks!!! Trying!! Lol
Love the transparency of your business and day to day, Subscribed to follow along as a lead generation agency owner!
Welcome Corey! Thanks for the comment and encouragement!
Underrated point about training front-end staff, and not many willing to have the uncomfortable conversation that all healthcare offices should be having! Recently came across your channel Dr. Choi, looking forward to rest of this journey of yours.
Thank you for leaving a comment. This gives me a lot of encouragement to keep going! Thank you
Congrats on 10 days sir!
Thank you!
@@Dr_andrewchoi keep going sir! You’ve got this!

Whoo hoooo!
Would like to hear your perspective on practicing in California/saturated area. I'm from CA and would love to move back but I feel like in another state I make more as an associate than what I hear most owners make in CA. Why do so many struggle there? And do you feel like it can be predictably overcome if you're smart about it?
In my opinion, the struggle comes from competition and politics. I’m a strong believer that those who will succeed will succeed anywhere, but there are more struggles in a disadvantageous environment.
How do you go about balancing your professional and personal life? It important to be disciplined and focus on progressing your career, however it’s equally important to take a step back and enjoy life to avoid burnout. How do you find and maintain this balance?
Balancing professional and personal life is indeed a crucial aspect of overall well-being. I approach this balance with a few key principles: Perspective on Work Ethic: I recognize that our generation's work-life expectations differ from those of our parents. For example, my dad worked six days a week for over 20 years, embodying a relentless work ethic. While I respect and admire that dedication, I also understand that our generation places a higher value on work-life balance and personal fulfillment. Hard Work and Enjoyment: I believe in working hard, especially in the early stages of my career. It's essential to build a strong foundation and develop a sense of discipline. However, I also believe that work should be enjoyable. Finding joy in the process and taking pride in my accomplishments helps me stay motivated and reduces the risk of burnout. To be frank, I am not sure yet. I am in the process of figuring it out. I do know that without work, I won't be able to achieve the "success" that I hope to gain. The type of success I want is not easy, so I get my ass to work and discipline myself through it all.
Really look forward to following your journey in parallel as I am getting ready for my own start up journey hoping to open doors in December this year. Please keep it up and can’t wait to see where this journey takes you at the end!
How exciting! Where are you located?
@@Dr_andrewchoi I’m in Maryland close to Washington DC. I can relate so much to your videos and you’ve got some great advice and insights I will be able to utilize along the way
My dad was a dental tech so I had good dental care as a kid.
Nice!
you ain't no doctor lol can't fool asians
This is so inspiring thank you very much. currently going back to school in my mid 20s and I needed to hear this.
I started dental school at 25. You got this!
@@Dr_andrewchoi Thank you!
I was going to say don’t worry about adding value every video but you beat me to it. I appreciate the videos! I think I’m going to jump on the bandwagon and do something similar.
Let’s gooooooo!
still here
Haha what do you find valuable or interesting?
@@Dr_andrewchoi What I find interesting of these videos is that you seem like you don't want to settle for less anymore because of your past and you want to go all or nothing and I can see you already succeeding with the plan you have!
Who was the mentor and what was it for?
My current business mentor is Mark Hower. It was to help me focus on my next steps and to guide me through my business.
@@Dr_andrewchoi interested to learn what you've learned from him or what the overall goal of it is
@@Dr_andrewchoi nice. Would be interested in a video to learn about what kind of stuff you are learning from him
did you do any dating in the philippines? they love foreigners.
I was scared to lose focus so I did not do much dating in the Philippines
Hey at 9:20 your audio cuts out brotha. Good video though! RN from Dallas TX
Thank you for letting me know!!! Glad to see you got that far 😂 thanks! Hope to see you again!
Someone asked me about the details of my practice. I accidentally deleted the question: My office has 4 ops, 2 part time hygiene, I am FT doc, two PT associates, I do almost everything in terms of clinical procedures, we are a family dental office. Mostly bread and butter, that is what I focus on. I do love surgical procedures so I do 3rds and I plan to focus more in implant dentistry.
How old are you? At what age did you start dental school?
I am 39. I started practicing dentistry at age 34.
@@Dr_andrewchoi Thanks for your reply. Did you change careers? I’m much younger (22) but changed careers from pre-med to software engineering and currently doing an internship so it’s always cool to see people who didn’t just go straight from highschool to their career right away.
How important is discipline in the dentistry industry?
Discipline is important in any type of business and success! It seems to apply to dentistry very much. Thanks for the comment!
@@Dr_andrewchoi no problem
Really valuable content, It’s the first time I see a dentist talk about the business side of dentistry!! You are doing a great Job
Thank you so much for the encouragement! What brings you here, are you a dentist?
@@Dr_andrewchoi I'm a last year dental student in Spain!
Im watching all these
So grateful for your views. What do you do and what makes this video valuable for you?
@@Dr_andrewchoi im fresh out of highschool and it is summer break, what makes these videos valuable to me is that I love seeing people put their hardwork and dedication into their dream and speak it into existence while proving yourself and everyone wrong, I feel like you will achieve your goal in no time
I’m very glad I have found your channel, Dr. Andrew Choi. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge.
So glad you did too! Social media is awesome isnt it? Like minded people connecting. Nothing more beautiful than that. Hope to see you again
good video man, keep it up.
I appreciate the motivation and encouragement. Means a lot! Thanks for visiting Omar. I hope to see you again.
This video was a great find 10/10,keep the videos coming
Damn thank you Richard for the comment. Means a lot to hear from the viewers!
We are always selling. Now that said… consider selling through the titles as well. :D I’ve shared Chris Do’s videos with my team many times; he always resonates with my younger team members. Curious are your outbound calls to new business or mostly follow up calls to existing customers?
I love Chris Do, what kind of business do you own? What do you mean by selling through the title? Make a better title?
@@Dr_andrewchoi I was a manager at a medium sized healthcare staffing agency until recently, but since Covid the market has compressed a lot. as of a few months ago I’m back down to an account manager role. I guess I got to the video too early before; the title of the TH-cam video was the name of the video file.
1:49 amazing to see this man! I saw day 5 on my suggested videos and checked it out now I’m here. My mom works at an office with a doctor in agoura, ca, cool to see this side of things. I myself have also written stuff down and crazily enough have been able to achieve them, even though the past year and a half has been the toughest phase of my life, of course I’m not at a position like yours wheee I have my own practice/business but I have goals like that too and once the path seemed so dark but this past year and a half though the hardest, I’ve also progressed the most and been able to change a lot, blessings man! Going to continue watching forsure
Don’t give up! Never too late bro
21:44 love the story man. Currently find myself in a similar spot, I’m out in the Calabasas area, about to start my third year of Juco and I also had a lot of bad habits pre college, I’ve been a lot better ever since but even the first 2 semesters were tough, hoping to head out to SDSU Fowler college next spring. I also feel like I had identity issues, my parents are Hispanic and I’m a first generation student and growing up now refelcting I feel like I was to white to be around my Hispanic friends and to Hispanic to be around my white friends, it was a battle at times I didn’t where I fit in. Crazy how this journey works man, I’m sure you can relate back to when you first started to correct your habits and really started to do a lot better, it’s tough but everything I’ve done up until now has been and I’ve done it. I’m applying for sdsu in the fall and again, it’s tough I messed up my first sem so idk if they’ll take me but we’ll see, love the story man🙏🏽 it’s amazing and makes me feel good to see that I can actually change if I really want to, so far so good
Don’t give up! You got this!
Interesting story
Had an interesting life
Wow. Great story. Glad to see another video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
hi man 😎
Yo Yo! welcome back!
Medical student hoping to open up a practice in the future. Dr. Choi, thank you for these videos. I've been looking for applicable, real-world advice that I can use in the future. Please keep these videos up!
Damn thanks man it means a lot to me. I will try to share as much as I can!
As a small business owner, I agree always interviewing is a good approach. But as a job seeker, especially an unemployed job seeker, it is very frustrating going for interview for jobs that don't really exist. As a job seeker you want to know there is a real job out there, not just going through the interview process. I believe this is why many job seekers are frustrated in the job hunt.
I definitely agree. Our office is always hiring, if the candidate is fantastic, I'll hire them. Impress me and I'll make a position for you.
Great video
thank you! thanks for leaving a comment too
Literally use of "doing God's work" You broke it down saying that your objectives are -meeting awesome people -creating value and the best experience for patients -expanding your comfort zone -designing protocols for one accorded -making time to broaden your paradigm The fact that you say that you are objectively interested in learning from new people means that you understand the principle of mentorship. Essentially what the followers can do in your absence. You learned that this method is more practical than trying to take on all responsibility for yourself. And that there is power in the diversity of gifts, that you shouldn't have to do it on your own This is characteristic of the melting pot dynamic of this country
Wow you summarized it succinctly and clearly! Awesome!
Wow 1000 days! Excited to follow your journey! 🔥
Yay! Thank you!
Great stuff, following along
Awesome, thank you!
I’ll be tuning in everyday!!
Thank you! Please lmk any input
Great advice here. Again, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! Are you a dentist?
@@Dr_andrewchoi My day job is in healthcare travel staffing actually; mostly in the surgical space. Frankly we stayed in business because people don't or are unable to practice what you talk about in this video.
@@LessThanPi exactly! I agree with you. I am alive thanks to those who can't do what I discuss. I am spreading knowledge that might make me bankrupt. LOL
@@Dr_andrewchoi don’t worry Dr. Choi. Most people don’t take advice to action unless they pay for it… and even then it’s a toss up. 🤷🏾♂️
Thanks for sharing lots of practical value here.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for leaving me a comment.
