SPG is a dentist-first DSO that employs a paradigm-shifting de novo growth strategy to efficiently create unparalleled opportunities our doctors and teams to render transformational patient care in the dentures and implants sector. Our company exists to empower our doctors to fulfill our company purpose: to democratize the fixed arch for our patients. Dentists in our company receive the training and support (both clinical and nonclinical) to execute the types of dentistry that truly change our patients' lives.
In this episode, Dr. Alex Sharp explores what it really means to build a strong culture at SPG, using an unexpected example from his children's new school. He reflects on how choice, focus, and a shared sense of purpose shape the way people show up and work together. Alex also connects these ideas to SPG's focused model and the deeper impact that comes from doing meaningful work with the right people.
Key Highlights:
💡 Culture Starts With Choice – Why people perform differently when they genuinely choose where they are and believe in the environment they're part of.
💡 Focus Creates Freedom – How being intentional about what SPG does—and what it chooses not to do—allows the team to go deeper and become exceptional at serving patients.
💡 Impact Makes Work Meaningful – Why the goal isn't simply to complete tasks, but to create meaningful outcomes for patients, teammates, and the communities SPG serves.
