Listen "Dr. Brian Jacobsen: Working 2.48 Days a Week in Small-Town Dentistry"
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Brian Jacobsen, dubbed "The King of Ephrata" by Bill Blatchford, shares his journey from working 180+ days per year to just 128 days (2.48 days per week) while dramatically increasing profitability. Starting with Blatchford in 2013 after meeting successful dentist Matt Fluggie, Dr. Jacobsen overcame key challenges including staff retention while working fewer days and implementing an effective bonus system. A pivotal moment came when Bill Blatchford encouraged him to contact a retiring local dentist, leading to a practice acquisition and transition to fee-for-service dentistry. During his five-year calling as a church bishop (2017-2022), his well-structured practice allowed him to serve dual roles successfully, demonstrating the power of systematic practice management in creating life flexibility.
