In this episode of Doc Secret, our guest is Dr. Devish Patel, Founder and CEO of Enamel Dentistry, a growing group practice with 10 locations across Austin and McKinney, Texas. Dr. Patel shares how a passion for hospitality, transparency, and cutting-edge technology shaped his path from a single startup clinic to a tech-forward DSO. He dives deep into how his team integrates Artificial Intelligence —from diagnostic tools like Pearl and Overjet to patient communication and revenue cycle management systems—to drive efficiency and enhance care. Dr. Patel opens up about early missteps, practical wins, and the real ROI of emerging technologies, while emphasizing team training, empathy and patient trust. From automating clinical documentation to reshaping the patient experience, he offers a grounded and forward-looking perspective on what it means to scale with innovation.
