AI For Practice Owners Webinar – Get Ahead in 2026 Before It's Too Late Join Mike Green (founder of Doctor Demographics, with over 40 years helping practice owners with location strategy, marketing, and growth analytics) in this live webinar recording as he reveals why AI is already reshaping non-clinical aspects of private practices — and why getting started now gives you a huge competitive edge. Most practice owners are still asking: "How will AI actually hit my practice?" or assuming it's years away or only for big corporate groups. Mike flips that script: AI will dramatically impact marketing, patient retention, customer service, social media, websites, admin tasks, and more — within the next 5 years (likely much sooner). Drawing parallels to the social media boom of the mid-2000s, he warns: "Second place is always the first loser." Early adopters win big with more time, higher revenue, and practices that practically run themselves — all without massive budgets. Mike is joined by two powerhouse guests: Eric Sorenson (international speaker, ex-practice owner, AI & marketing expert): Shares how AI acts as the "great equalizer" to escape the time-for-money trap, double your business, and build freedom. He highlights rapid advancements (business landscape changing dramatically in just 1–2 years), agentic AI, voice tools, NotebookLM for learning, HIPAA-compliant AI agents, and his RCCF prompting method. Grab his free prompt guide at prompts.platinpartnergroup.com. Kevin St. Clergy (author of Beyond Blind Blaming, practice coach & speaker): Dives into practical "vibe coding" wins — building custom tools via voice (e.g., a $100 assessment saving $10K/year), Manis AI for apps/websites, Claude.ai for copy/SOPs, Canva + AI for social graphics, and branding strategies that turn your website into fresh logos, posts, and plans. This session is packed with motivation, real examples, and actionable insights for dentists, physicians, and healthcare entrepreneurs ready to leverage AI for profitability, time freedom, and growth — while regulations slow clinical AI adoption.

One of the biggest problems most modern practices have is that they are solving the wrong problem perfectly. In today's episode, Mike Green interviews Kevin St.Clergy on how to discover what the true problem is in your practice, and how to go about solving it.

Why did you decide to become a practice owner? Was it to help others, to enjoy the rewards of being a business owner, or perhaps to build wealth for your family?

Erik Sorenson—an experienced marketer, international speaker, and fellow practice owner—explains why freedom should be the true core goal for every practice owner, and shares practical steps to actually achieve it.
