## Discover The Doctor Difference.

## The difference is clinical independence.

Our supported practices can help you put your skills to work and achieve your goals faster with our non-clinical administrative support system. You’ll retain full clinical independence, have state-of-the-art equipment at your fingertips, and gain access to a mentorship network of 2,400+ supported doctors. Plus, you’ll enjoy industry-leading compensation packages from supported PCs.

### Holidays & PTO

Full-time supported doctors enjoy the flexibility to take time off when it best fits their lifestyle, needs, and coverage plans. Supported practices observe six paid holidays annually, and full-time team members are eligible to accrue at least two weeks of PTO per year.

### Health, vision & dental

Excellent dental care is a key part of the benefits package for supported doctors. It extends to your family as well. Supported practices also offer several health plans, as well as prescription, vision, and life insurance.

### Financial benefits

Compensation packages for full-time supported doctors pair the security of an annual salary with an unlimited bonus potential, offering you the opportunity to earn significantly more than the average dentist in the U.S.\*
