 Hello everybody, Andrew Maeski here with Dental L. I finally feel like I can sit down and chat with you guys. We moved a couple of weeks ago. In fact, I can't even believe it's been a couple of weeks. Time goes by so fast. I have started my dental hygiene studio. As you guys can see, I have a room in the house that is right off of the front door. So right by the front, so I can see everybody coming in. It is truly a dream come true to have my own practice. And I must say, I like having it in my home as well, opposed to me starting my own dental hygiene practice in a storefront somewhere, because I don't wanna have to worry about all of those expenses that come with having a storefront, having one in my home where I live anyway. Yes, there's been a lot of expenses. Let me tell you, wow, but it's totally worth it. So I have been doing this now for about a year, actually a year and a month. I started off with mobile hygiene, where I went to people's homes, nursing homes, hospitals, all of that. And since we have moved into our new home, I was able to also have a studio in my house, which I'm super excited about, because believe it or not, there are some people that say, oh, I'm okay to just come to you. I don't want you to come to my messy home, you know? So I was happy to be able to offer that, plus for those who don't have insurance, I can offer them a even cheaper dental hygiene treatment. So I love to be able to do that, because obviously me traveling to somebody's home, it's a lot of work you guys, let me tell you, lugging everything in and out, that's the hardest part. I'm tired even before I get to see the patient, you know? So it's yes, it's easier, easier not being the right word, but it's better, no, it's not even better, but it's different seeing patients in my own home office because they come in, walk in, everything's set up, good to go. But when I go to somebody's home, you have to account for set up time, tear down time. There might be a lot of steps that you have to take with all of your stuff. There might not be a lot of room, so you have to maneuver around that way too. There's just many other factors to consider. So it's just nice having my own studio as well. So you might be wondering, what is busier, my mobile practice or seeing patients in my own studio? Well, I can't really answer that yet, because I have only had my at-home studio open for about two weeks. So it's not busy by any means, so I am seeing more patients at their home, but I am busy, you guys. I was able to stop working at all of the other dental offices that I was working at, which is honestly a dream come true, as I said, to be my own boss. I was working in the dental office Tuesday and Thursdays, and then another one on Fridays. I am so busy doing my own thing that I don't have to do it at those offices anymore. Plus, I'm an hour and a half away anyway. We had moved further away, so I wouldn't be doing that anyway. I was a temp at Dental Hygienists a couple years ago. So it's nice that I don't even have to consider temping, because I am busy enough doing my own thing. As an example, on Saturday, I am going to three different houses, seeing one patient in one house and then two patients in the other two houses. So do the math, that's a lot of people, which is great. And then I'm going to two houses again on Sundays, seeing two people per house. On Monday, I'm seeing one patient, but you get the idea. Things are busy, you guys. But what I think a lot of entrepreneurs don't realize is I'm not just seeing patients. I'm doing paperwork. The paperwork is the hardest part that I have to get used to, because I don't like doing paperwork. And by paperwork, I mean adding everything up at the end of the day, seeing who might owe me money, seeing who I have to send things through to insurance. If insurance doesn't accept something, okay, I have to send that through again, but why didn't they accept it? Late payments with insurance should have paid something, but they didn't having to kind of chase the patients down. Those types of things I don't love to do for sure. So that's kind of the hard part for me. I'm so busy doing paperwork too, where I'm trying to tell myself every Friday or every Monday, depending on when or how many patients that I'm seeing, I am going to devote a couple hours to doing paperwork so it doesn't all pile up. And then at the end of the month, I kind of have to go, okay, whose insurance check is this? I didn't leave a name on it, but there's a number, all kinds of things. Because normally a dental hygienist, or sorry, a dental receptionist would be doing that in an office. So it's kind of new to me. But other than that, you guys, yes, there's so much to do, so little time, but it's totally worth it. It's all about being organized and it's very exciting.
