Applying Mastermind Fundamentals with Jeff Scammahorn

Dr. Jeffrey Scammahorn is the owner of Westmoore Dental Studio, a dental practice located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. They offer services related to implants and bridges, sleep apnea, preventative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, and restorative dentistry. He started Westmoore Dental Studio in September of 2019 only to encounter the many challenges wrought by the Covid-19 pandemic barely six months later. Despite the struggles, Jeffrey found ways to adapt and improve his techniques in both services and leadership practices. Joining our mastermind helped him in these endeavors. 

Today, Jeffrey joins us to describe his experience during our mastermind event: his takeaways, the people he met, and the relationships he formed with other dental professionals. He shares how the pandemic affected his newly bought practice and the lessons he learned from the experience. He explains how the mastermind event changed the way he ran his practice, especially when hiring team members. He discusses how implants and sedation allowed his business to grow while also letting him take time off. Jeffrey also shares the benefits of joining a mastermind event.
