Location: Gasport, NY

Status: Full-Time | 45 days per week

Compensation: $200,000 - $300,000+

Daily Guarantee: $1,000/day

Highlights: Mentorship | Advanced Technology | Partnership Pathway

Founded generations ago, our practice has been led by Dr. Igor Kaplansky for the last 24 years. Dr. Kaplansky is a recognized leader in implant and comprehensive dentistry, and under his guidance, we have remained a locally owned, private practice. Because we are independent of outside investors and corporate groups, our team focuses on quality care rather than meeting quotas. We provide a stable environment where an associate can build a long-term career in a practice that the community truly trusts.

This new associate will join a cohesive and experienced team of approximately 30 professionals, including seven full-time dental assistants, three in-house laboratory technicians, and a dedicated administrative staff led by a long-tenured office manager. The practice is highly productive, maintaining 8,000 active patients and onboarding approximately 100 new patients each month across 12 modern operatories. Our established systems ensure a seamless transition for a new provider. Rather than managing administrative hurdles or inconsistent scheduling, you will step into a high-functioning environment designed to let you focus on delivering exceptional clinical care from your first day.

Mentorship at this practice is both structured and accessible. Dr. Kaplansky conducts monthly case review meetings in which associates present their cases for open clinical discussion. Beyond these formal sessions, he is available daily to provide guidance and answer questions as they arise during the workday. A significant advantage of this practice is our sophisticated in-house laboratory. Staffed by three dedicated technicians and equipped with two five-axis CAD/CAM mills and two 3D printers, the lab offers a unique feedback loop for professional growth. Associates can collaborate directly with technicians to review their preparations and restorations in real time. This immediate, case-specific feedback accelerates clinical development in a way that standard commercial laboratories cannot replicate.

Professional stability is a core value of this practice. Our commitment to continuity is evidenced by our current associate, who has been with the team for six years. This consistency allows us to provide the reliable, long-term care our patients expect while fostering an environment where providers can truly build their careers. For a candidate who demonstrates a strong long-term fit, we provide a transparent path toward ownership. Partnership discussions are welcomed after three years of successful collaboration, offering a genuine opportunity for future practice investment

Gasport is located in rural Western New York, approximately one hour from downtown Buffalo and 90 minutes from Toronto. The region benefits from a lower dentist-to-patient ratio than most urban markets, which results in less competition and a patient base that deeply values your care. This environment also creates a higher earning potential for productive providers. Associates have the flexibility to reside in Buffalo and commute or settle locally to become part of the community. This location is particularly well-suited for Canadian-trained dentists who wish to remain close to Toronto. Furthermore, the practice is experienced in the legal requirements for international providers and has successfully navigated visa sponsorship on many occasions.

• Respect for Everyone We maintain a culture of mutual respect where every team member is valued equally. Kindness, dignity, and patience are baseline expectations for all interactions, whether with patients or colleagues. We prioritize consistent professional behavior, ensuring that every individual is treated with the same level of consideration regardless of the situation or their role within the office.

• Quality Over Speed Getting it right matters more than getting it done fast. Dr. Kaplansky has explicitly said he would rather have someone be slower and excellent than fast and sloppy. Thoroughness is a non-negotiable, and steady improvement in efficiency is expected to come naturally as confidence grows. Shortcuts, rushed work, and frequent re-dos are not part of this practices standard.

• Coachability We value associates who are open to coaching and ready to grow. When you receive feedback, the expectation is that you listen to the correction and make a visible change in your performance. Associates who ignore input or continue to make the same errors will struggle to succeed. Our goal is simple: hear the feedback, apply it right away, and move forward without needing a second reminder.

• Team Mentality Our team consists of 30 professionals who work closely together and genuinely enjoy their environment. We prioritize a cohesive culture where arrogance and ego have no place. When conflict arises, we address it directly and quickly to maintain a positive atmosphere. Every person in our practice, including both staff and patients, deserves to feel respected and supported at all times.

• Long-Term Commitment Our practice prioritizes stability and long-term care. Patients here value consistency and expect to see the same provider at every visit. We are looking for an associate who wants to plant roots and build a lasting career rather than someone seeking a temporary position. The right fit is a professional who is ready to invest in our patient base and grow with the practice for years to come.

• An In-House Lab That Accelerates Your Growth Our in-house lab provides a unique environment to accelerate your professional growth. With three dedicated technicians, two five-axis mills, and 3D printing capabilities, we offer same-day restorations right inside the practice. You can walk into the lab after a procedure to watch your case being built and receive immediate feedback that a commercial lab cannot provide. Associates develop their skills faster here because the learning process is direct, personal, and real-time.

• Immediate, Meaningful Patient Volume You will step into a high-performing practice with 8,000 active patients and 100 new patients arriving each month. Since the schedule is already full, you can expect a significant patient volume and real earning potential starting on your first day. We provide a $1,000 daily guarantee to support you during your transition. However, our practice is busy enough that we expect you to exceed this base amount well before your first six months are complete.

• Genuine, Structured Mentorship We provide genuine mentorship designed to improve your clinical skills. You will have dedicated monthly meetings with Dr. Kaplansky to review cases, ask difficult questions, and receive detailed feedback. You also have daily access to support, so you are never left guessing during an appointment. This is a structured approach to professional growth that offers much more than a typical job requirement.

• Stable Private Practice Our practice has served this community for over 50 years and maintains 6 million dollars in annual production without corporate ownership. We focus exclusively on fee-for-service and high-quality insurance providers. This means you can practice dentistry without the pressure of Medicaid, high patient turnover, or aggressive sales quotas. Our culture is built on trust and stability, which is reflected in both our consistent financial success and our dedicated team.

• A Real Path to Partnership We offer a clear path to partnership for the right dentist. After three years of working together, we can begin a formal conversation about ownership. As one of the largest private practices in Niagara County, we are entirely independent and free from corporate influence. This is a unique opportunity to build equity and a professional reputation in a market with much less competition than a major city. You can establish your name and career in a practice built to last.
