The Doors Are Open!

So here it is. After getting a space leased, getting the dental clinic built (thank you T.I Specialists), purchasing and installing dental equipment, and getting the whole place furnished, my dental clinic is finally finished. Then came hiring my staff and testing all the new equipment - no small task due to the fact that the clinic is 100% digital. This is going to be as close to paperless as a dental office can be. Too many details to even mention. But the most important detail is that everything is done and we see our first official patient tomorrow. I am so excited! So everyone please come visit me at 11500 W. Olympic Blvd. Suite 326. Check out my official website at lisakederian.com. If you need dental care, please call Angie at (424)901-0701 and set up an appointment. We will gladly take care of you. See you soon!

Learning Patience

Well the lease to my dental space has finally been signed. We chose the space at 11500 W. Olympic Blvd. in West LA, near the corner of Sepulveda and Olympic. It only took a couple of months to get the whole thing done. So much I have learned over these past few months, almost all about business and becoming an entrepreneur. The biggest lesson I learned? Delegate the stuff you don't understand to those who do and work with professionals. Even looking over the lease papers would have cost us a lot of money in the long run had we not had a lawyer "on our side" reviewing every word on a 50-page document and making sure our best interests were covered. So what's next. Construction. Target opening date of the practice? August 1st. Seems so far away. Seems like it's tomorrow too.
