#25 - Great Expectations - In Conversation with Rahul Doshi

This week, Payman and Prav talked with Rahul Doshi, cosmetic pioneer and founder of the groundbreaking Perfect Smile Studios.   The trio talk about the science and art of cosmetic dentistry, what it takes to be a clinical leader, team building and more.   Rahul also talks about his decision to join Dentex, as well as the board of the British Association of Cosmetic Dentists (BACD.)   Enjoy!    Rather than being demotivated about, "I could've done X, I could've done Y." You’ve got to say, "Right, how do I play these cards now and do well with them?"
