Episode Notes

In this episode of The Burleson Box, Dr. Dustin Burleson sits down with Dr. Jamie Reynolds—orthodontist, entrepreneur, and co-founder of OrthoFi and Orthodontic Partners—to explore how data-driven decisions and innovative financial systems are reshaping orthodontics.

Jamie shares his expertise on:

        
  • How OrthoFi was born out of necessity during tough economic times in Detroit
  •     
  • What $5 billion in real-world orthodontic data reveals about patient behavior, financing, and conversion rates
  •     
  • Why “same-day convenience” (formerly known as same-day starts) drives patient satisfaction and practice growth
  •     
  • How intelligently flexible financing helps more patients say “yes” without hurting your cashflow
  •     
  • The shift from gut feelings and anecdotal rules of thumb to transparent, data-backed decisions that scale
  •     
  • Lessons from building Orthodontic Partners and watching the private equity landscape evolve

Whether you’re a solo practitioner trying to increase starts or part of a larger group navigating growth, Jamie’s perspective will challenge the way you think about patient access, affordability, and the systems that run your practice.
