Our Midwest growth is intentional and relationship-driven. We do not seek to partner with every practice, we seek to partner with the right doctors. Our focus is on alignment, shared values, and long-term relationships that create success for our partners, their teams, and the patients they serve.

Partner Insights

What our partners have to say.


I wanted to be part of something I could help build. MCDP gives its partners a voice in the future of the organization while providing the operational support and resources to help us grow.

Dr. Scott Schulz

MCDP has given me the freedom to focus on my patients and the flexibility to be present for my family. Having the support of a team behind me has changed what it means to be a practice owner.

Dana Radtke

After many years of practicing independently, joining MCDP gave me something I didn’t realize I needed—the freedom to focus on my patients while having a team I trust to support the business behind the scenes.

Sarah Carrico

What stood out to me about MCDP was the balance. I have the freedom to practice orthodontics the way I believe is best, while having the support and mentorship to grow without carrying the financial and business responsibilities alone.

David Mika

MCDP has given me the mentorship and support to grow not only as an orthodontist, but as a leader. I’ve been able to focus on patient care while learning the business from people who genuinely want to see me succeed.

Nick Ancona

As a young graduate, mentorship was incredibly important to me. MCDP gave me the guidance and confidence to grow clinically, develop my business skills, and build the kind of career I envisioned for myself.

Kelly Fenn

MCDP has given me the opportunity to understand every side of the orthodontic business. With the right mentorship, operational support, and investment in our practice, we’ve been able to grow both professionally and financially.

What Makes Us Different

Different by design. Built to last.

From day one, we focused on building MCDP the right way: making tough decisions today for long-term success. We aim to create a sustainable organization where partnerships, integrations, and engaged doctors drive value. Our foundation is disciplined growth and operational excellence.

The Conventional DSO

  • Corporate ownership and finance-led decisions
  • Lack of local support
  • Financially driven patient protocols and sales tactics
  • Many management layers and a top-down style
  • Less flexibility and less collegial environment
  • Growth from acquisitions at high debt ratios

The MCDP Partnership

  • Partner-owned and provider-led decision making
  • Local relationships with dedicated operational support
  • Clinical control stays entirely with you
  • Founder-led, collaborative partnership
  • Geographically concentrated within the Midwest
  • Sustainable growth focused on long-term planning
