I work in the dental field. Dental Service Organizations (DSOs) are buying up the traditional 'small town' single dentist or small group offices which were known to provide honest long-term personal services. Recent stats show that 23% of our most recent dental school grads are joining the ranks of these big conglomerates because of incentives bonus' for selling services and not having the stress of having to run the business side of things in addition to providing dental care. Sadly, reality is that we've had patients bring in their 'quotes' that have included work that our dentists say isn't even remotely warranted. Just sayin' .... FYI:
