A lifelong resident of Chickasha,Oklahoma, Dr. Phillips achieved his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in June of 1996 and then opened his practice from scratch in the same year. He was voted the Crown Council Young Dentist of the Year in 1998, which opened doors for him to learn directly from the top restorative and cosmetic dentists in the United States. That extensive training includes valuable time spent with Los Angeles dentist Dr. Bill Dorfman (known for his work on ABC’s Extreme Makeovers) and at the Dawson Center for Excellence in Florida for advanced courses on occlusion.
Today, Dr. Phillips is extremely qualified in all areas of general dentistry, dental implants, full mouth rehabilitation, and cosmetic dentistry. He is also a celebrated national speaker, a consultant for several top-tier dental manufacturers, and the author of multiple published pieces in respected dental journals. He continually strives to stay on the cutting-edge of new technologies and techniques in the field.
Dr. Phillips has amassed an incredible amount of knowledge and skill through his private practice in Oklahoma, which he transformed into one of the most profitable and productive dental offices in the country. Our clients are always impressed by his relentless drive and commitment when it comes to maximizing production management – his team of 30 (including three doctors and five hygienists) is a well-oiled machine! He looks forward to working with other practices directly in order to share his extensive insight and help them transform their day-to-day operations for the better.
Dr. Phelps can deeply empathize with the dentists he coaches and trains because he has walked many, many miles in their shoes. He knows the struggles of having to balance being a successful clinician as well as asavvy marketer in today’s
world where patients have more information and options than ever before. Getting the right type of patient through the door, having them accept a treatment plan, and reliably growing your business requires several skills, and often ones that aren’t taught in dental school.
After investing hundreds of thousands of dollars learning from true experts in business such as Dan Sullivan, Kathy Kolbe, Robert Cialdini and Dr. Anthony Feck, Dr. Phelps was able to find what works, not just for him, but for anyone hoping to grow and thrive as a dentist.
A Track Record of Success
When Dr. Phelps gives talks at conventions today, he receives quite the introduction. During his first seven years as a general dentist, he was able to grow his revenue by a factor of 10 and expand from one fee for service location to four. From there, he was able to sell two practices for a profit (the two most successful ones) so he could focus on his “slower” locations. Each went on to have two consecutive years of $1,000,000 growth, and he ultimately earned as much as he did with four locations.
On top of this, he is a certified Kolbe Trainer as well as a Cialdini Method Certified Trainer who is an expert in the science of ethical influence and persuasion. His work has been featured in publications such as Dental Economics, Dental Practice Management, Dental Products Report, Dentistry IQ, and Remin Media.
In recognition of his work, Dr. Phelps was nominated by his peers and selected to receive the Doctor’s Choice National Dental Award in 2016 and 2018. In 2020, he was recognized by the Global Summits Institute as being one of the Top 100 Dentists in the World.
All of these accolades speak to one thing-whatever he is doing delivers results and does so consistently.
