In
7th grade, two eleven year old boys met and formed
a friendship that has lasted nearly 30 years. The secret to creating our
lifelong bond is the unwavering trust we have in each other. Although
we
initially engaged in separate career paths, we spoke frequently of
starting our
own company together. We were very fortunate to have worked for Mars,
Inc. and CVS Pharmacy respectively. During that time we acquired a
diverse and
useful set of skills that we now utilize daily to help dental practices reach their
goals. In July, 2013 we left our corporate positions and founded DPG.
DPG is a dental
specific Group Purchasing Organization (GPO). It was started on the premise
that “Together We Could Achieve More”. It may seem at times that everyone has
competing business interests. Members of DPG enjoy the benefits of
working together. As DPG membership continues to grow nationally, we
possess the ability to shape the industry in ways not previously possible. Short term change
includes better pricing models. Long term change includes having enough members
as part of DPG to improve reimbursement rates, leading to more accessible
oral healthcare and ultimately the patient’s ability to choose their dentist.
DPG is
committed to working on your behalf to
identify cost saving solutions everywhere your practice writes a check. We are
equally committed to fostering opportunities for our vendor partners. This
synergy promotes a sustainable growth model for both independent practices and
DPG vendor partners. Working together allows us to achieve greater results. We
look forward to having you join the DPG family. Imagine the possibilities…
