About Operation Dental
Founded in 2016 by Dr. Peter Kelly, DDS, and Matt Robinson, MBA, Operation Dental breaks the DSO stereotype by pioneering a management style that prioritizes people over profits and always puts our dentists, employees, and patients first.
By combining the best components of private and group dentistry, our ultimate goal is to empower everyone in our organization to achieve personal and professional fulfillment beyond what they could find in any other setting. We believe happier dentists and employees lead to better patient outcomes, resulting in healthier communities and a brighter future for us all.

Podcasts are for sharing stories, so we created a podcast with stories to help you grow. Welcome to The Driven Dental Podcast.
Four out of our five dentists wish they had learned about leadership skills and business management before entering practice. Learn what they didn’t and give yourself the advantage over your competition.
