Dr. Rick believes and teaches that the best investment you can make is your investment in yourself. So, when they combined forces, Dr. Rick and Dr. Sully could pick up restorations and general dentistry. This allowed Dr. Rick to work on more cases involving wisdom teeth and other aesthetic dentistry.
Opportunity costs could be found early on. Dr. Sully realized that his father had a robust surgical skillset, but they didn’t have a set block schedule. So, Sully coming in and giving the practice another skillset; they were able to better organize the time they spent in-office with patients by blocking off times.

When they merged, Dr. Sully hesitated because he would now have only half the number of chairs, patients, and income. At first, the senior Sullivan would debrief the younger Sullivan for about 30 minutes at the end of the day to review what they had accomplished and what can be improved upon.
Sully would ask Senior Sully for assistance when he needed help with a dental procedure. He wasn’t afraid to ask for help, even in the middle of a root canal, important for patient care.
