From running the playground in elementary school to shaping the future of dentistry in Alabama as president of the Alabama Dental Association, she’s dedicated herself to mentoring, facing challenges head-on, and keeping her ego in check.
She breaks down why transparency is the ultimate trust-builder in organized dentistry and why analytics, referrals, and ongoing education are the real game-changers for a practice.
For Dr. Doobrow, great leaders show up for their community, stay just uncomfortable enough to keep leveling up, and lead by example, because if you want your team to change, it starts with you.
